to take a screen shot, press the screenshot button on your keyboard found on the top right hand side of the keyboard.
then go to your default folder where the screenies are saved.
in my case:C:\Documents and Settings\Gurjiv\My Documents\My Pictures\FreelancerShots
thats my defualt folder called freelancer shots.
now, to show a pic to us on the forums or the admins, u will need to ipload the pic here:
1st - to make a screenshot ingame, just press print screen, the shot will be stored in "my documents -> my images -> freelancer shots directory
After the pic is made, I'd strongly advise to convert it to a JPEG or something taking up less space than a simple BMP.
The host: There are tons of them. Picdoodle, Photobucket, Imageshack...
You use these hosts to upload an image from your hard drive (simple browse - select file) and afterwards, the host dispalys the image's URL - this URL is a link to the image.
All you have to do now is to make a post, select the insert image button (with a tree) and paste this URL. And Voila, an image is posted. Same applies to PMs
today was my best and worst in disco, unfortunately i got few screenshoots, but looking the 2 i have (enough to have a guy permanently banned), you can imagine why i need that, they are going to complain (to defend their own incompetence).
