How to take a screenshot (simple)

Post by -PLAGUE- » Sun Aug 15, 2010 9:02 am

I just thought it'd be useful for noobs that ever you know witness something amazing or something kewl happens in blitz or to report glitches that kinda stuff. If you don't already know you can take a screenshot of the game by pressing the print screen button on your keyboard and then pasting the picture into paint.

If the picture needs to be revised you can use picasa 3 its free, or if for any reason it needs to be resized i suggest you use irfanview which is also free.

Just because someone is new to the game doesn't mean the don't know how to take a a screenie lol. But it's a harmless thread I just don't see the correlation between new player and inability to take a screenshot
