i want more....

Due to some screenshots being shrunk recently, I've added a guide to screenshots to the first post, which is also posted below. Please follow the guide to prevent shrunken screenshots.






There's been a rash of screenies uploaded incorrectly recently, so here's a wee guide to taking screenshots and correctly saving them.

• Firstly, to screenshot something, press the "Prnt Scr" button on your keyboard (NB: Key may be labelled differently, it should represent "Print Screen" somehow)
• Next, open Paint or another image altering programme.
• Paste the screenshot with Ctrl+V (or Right Click -> Paste)
• Edit the screenshot as you see fit (IE: Crop it to the required max of 500 pixels wide)
• Save the screenshot by selecting "Save As"
• Change the title to something like "fruitmachine"
• DO NOT SIMPLY TYPE ".jpg" AFTER THIS
• Click the arrow next to the drop down list.
• Select .PNG or .GIF (or .JPG if you must, though really it should be saved for saving photos only, not images) from the drop-down list
• Save image.
• Go to an image host (http://www.imageshack.us or http://www.photobucket.com for example)
• Upload your image
• Post it here.

For comparison, this is what your screenshot will end up looking like if you simply add something like ".jpg" or ".png" to the end of the filename

Incorrectly done

And here's what it will look like as a correctly saved .PNG image

Correctly done

Note that even the incorrect version is not as small as they often turn out. Photobucket is notorious for shrinking poorly saved files.

If I may add to that. I don't know about photobucket because i do not use that. But IF you use imageshack wich I do it give you an option for a tumbnail. If you are not good at cropping or think your image looks horriable shrunk to the correct size and want to leave it bigger (or are just afraid to post because you're not sure if its the correct size) try out imageshack and there tumbnail feature all the code is given to you when you upload a picture so dont fear the code heh.

Sorry if none of that was my place to say. but i personaly dont like to resize (yea im just lazy) so when I post here I use thumbnails!

Wish I had a good screenie to add but sadly nothing happened neowise for me to add anything.

one of the most profitable snow faerie quests i've ever done. I've spent only 230nps!

O.o; Not when I can barely afford to feed you omelettes.

My god, this is my first random event in weeks, too. XD

I just got it too x) Some amazingly kind stranger saw that Petpetsitter was one of my goals, so she sent me tips that actually worked. It was also kind of encouraging that some person I'd never met wanted to help me improve, and so because of that, I felt more motivated and stuff.




Silly me already had nearly 5000 out, so I didnt get too much. Normally I only keep about 700 on hand
