RE: Yes

Would be too much work for Nels and partners to set up and monitor !Do what I do, GRAB the best of Screenshots and create your own MSTS ALBUM on your machine for INSTANT VIEWING ! Separate Sub\Directories for Routes, Steam Locos, etc.

RE:Yes

Do a "GOOGLE" search to find ONLINE sellers in your Country. The choice is vast, both in type and price !What are your machine specs, WIN version ? Have you got a spare IDE Channel / Slave ?

RE:Yes

www.pricewatch.comJust got a super fast 80 gig for 105 buckazoids, dirt cheap.This has been suggested before, it would be kinda nice to have a "general bull session and screwing around" forum for silly stuff, screenshots, general yakking and flamewars, take less time for newbies to wade thru all that on the regular forums looking for answers.
Personally I like doing silly gag screenshots, I try to make realistic ones and they come out kinda grainy.Should There Be a Photo Forum For Train Sim Screen Shot – image 5

Hey Ryan,Yes Hard Drives have dropped ALOT in price over the last few months.My last PC purchase was a new Hard Drive so I could move my exsisting 20GIG to a back-up Drive.A 40GIG 7200 cost me $135 CanadianI regret not getting the 80GIG now as it was not really that much more, and MAN does MSTS eat up space.Its alright, I am thinking brand new PC just for MSTS anyways.The band playing every weekend will get me a new loaded PC in about 2.5 weeks.............Problem is all time to play MSTS is unfourtunaltly going to be really shortened.Oh wellLaterTim Kent

RE:Yes

I recently purchased a 120 GB hardrive and after a $150.00 rebate offer (in cash) from Best Buy the final cost was $100.00. Not bad at all + it's 7200 rpms. Michael

RE:Yes

You can also add at your computer a CD Recorder it's also affortable and very useful. You save space on your HD and save all your download outside your computer. If you have a problem with your computer or HD you can lost everything. It's very secure to have safe copies of your files on some CD or CR-RW.

I posted a thread seeing how many people would support a screen shot forum, I let it die to the back after not getting any official word on it, It's a lost cause, We'll never see a SS forumShawn "Icy-Fire" Kenselaar

Give a railfan a model, He plays MSTS for a day.
Teach a railfan to model, He plays MSTS for a lifetime.

RE: been there, done that

If I could get a lot more people to vote I think there could be something decided. There are more that 8,000 registered users on this forum and 26 on the vote! LOLAdamShould There Be a Photo Forum For Train Sim Screen Shot – image 8
