Okay okay no need to ne pedantic.. .

EDIT: Thats a good idea on_diet_cat. You must all write your name on your screenshots. If you want to make it even more authentic, you can keep the whole screen shot and not crop it, making it more unique.

While on the subject of cheating, I must ask everyone to be honest. I can't tell if you asked your best friend who is awesome at games to play your games for you, so I am counting on your honesty to keep this contest fair and cheater-free.

Keep the entries coming guys.

However, I don't know how to do screen shots. Could someone help me learn?

Okay I hope I can explain this good.

1. Get what you want to take the screen shot of (in this case your game score) clrealy on top of everything else you have open.

2. Press a button that has Print Screen written on it. It looks like this: and can usually be found above your arrow keys and around the "home" and "insert" buttons.

3. Open up a program like Paint (easy one to use if you dont make graphics) or Photoshop/Paint Shop Pro and open a new document. Press Ctrl+V and your screen shot should appear.

4. Save it and upload it, then post it here.

Hope that describes it adequitly.

Ooh! Thank you. I wish I had known that when I hatched my Draik Egg. Oh well.

Will Photobucket do these?

[hellyer]

Glad I could help. And yes, as far as I know photobucket will be fine. You might want to confirm that though, I am not 100%.

I want to participate!

I'd like to add that, if you plan to upload using Photobucket, don't save your screenshot as a bitmap (bmp) which is the default using MS Paint. Save it as a gif or a jpg instead. If you save it as bmp, the filesize will be so big that Photobucket will automatically resize it. If you don't crop your image, a jpg would be preferred, as full sized gifs often have a large enough filesize that Photobucket resizes them some as well.

Thats the spirit. All in the name of fun, this is.

I'll update the participants list in a moment. I am not going to make a schedule until we have all contestants because only then will I know our starting date.

[Wind]

So... hum... anyone else? I really want to start it

[hellyer]

Damn, looks like noone else wants to play.

You know, there aren't a whole lot of people that come on the NNV board, maybe if you put a blurb in your sig more people would hear about it. And you're really close, only about 6 people shy.

I am having a problem figuring out how to get it off bitmap. There are only four things on Paint (at least for my computor), and they are all bmp.

That your computer is odd.

Try downloading Jasc Animation Studio. Even if nothing is animated you can save it as a gif there.

I would like to participate if it isn't too late.
