How to upload screenshots to the forums!
1. First of all, you need to get a screenshot, there is many ways to do this.
The first, and easiest way to do so, is use PrtScr
On your keyboard after F1-12, it should say PrtScr / SrsRq.
If you click that, it just took a picture of your entire screen!
Then you can open Paint.net, almost all computers have that program.
Go to your start button, i'm still on Windows 7
then type in Paint, it should pop up, like this!
2. After you do that, you should be able to click on it, and it open.
Since its now opened, you can go to the top left and press on the button that says paste.
It should look something like this:
3. You should have the picture of what ever you took come into the white box.
4. The picture is a little on the big side, my bad, usually you don't take pictures this large, I took one of my entire wallpaper and pasted it.
After that is done, you can go to the top left, and click save as.
You can save the picture anywhere you want, usually I just save ti to my desktop.
If you want to put it into the forums, all you have to do is go to this awesome site called TinyPic.
all you have to do is click on the "Upload" part in it.
Its that easy.
It should then give you a link, and all you have to do is paste it into a post, located here:
