RE: Screenshots

Hi There!!It's simplicity itself.1) Compose your shot in Track Viewer.
2) Hit the "Print Screen" key on your keyboard.
3) Paste the results into your preferred graphics editor.
4) Crop the rest of shot away until you're left with what you want.Et voila!!HTHTechnical Numpty

Hello Nathan,
I am not sure about size of screenshots, interpreting as pixels, thought i would say, keep below 700*550, although there amy be a size limit, I know that signatures are 450*120, as stated at the top of the page.
If I interpreted it as in kb, the limit is 100kb or less.Damon CoxPrevious Topic | Next Topic – image 2
