I've had dozens of people ask how to take screenshots
& upload them. So, i had created a guide for my alliance's
forums and thought id share it here for others who need
assistance.

what is a screenie/SS ?
Another name for screen shot, or a copy of an image that's taken from your computer screen.
HOW TO TAKE A SCREEN SHOT:
(*note this process may vary for some. If
your way differs greatly pls post your version
up to help others. also if we could get this
translated in other languages i think it could
be helpful in case images don't show up for anyone  )
1.) There is a key on standard keyboards
that says "Print Screen" or on laptops it may
say "prt scn/prt sc" and for some you may
need to hit function/"fn" along with the print
screen key to take the SS. Usually this print
screen key is located next to the "F12" key.
2.) For 9dragons game you'll know when
you have taken a screen shot because the
date and time will show in your side bar
where it tells you when your friends have
logged in and out of the game and whats
the last skills you've casted. If that bar is
not showing, you may need to click a
checkmark located on very bottom left of
your screen to activate it.
tips-
*if you want to hide your
personal info press F5 in game it will
clear the screen of the map,status, skill bar,
etc... for a nice clean shot. then hit F5 again to
return to normal view & make sure the image
was saved.
*if you wish to hide your character name
and/or other peoples name Press the letter "O"
in game then go to the "game" tab and unclick
display your name/other's name
3) after taking a copy of your screen
minimize the game by pressing the start
up window button, which is usually located
close to your spacebar.
4) Next to TO LOCATE THE SS go to start up menu,
computer, c drive, program files, 9dragons folder,
capture folder, name of your character folder.
then all ur screenshots uve taken should be saved
in that folder.
5) for some your SS may not automatically
save to your files. In that case you have to
manually save your Screenshots. after taking
the SS go to start up menu, all programs,
accessories, paint.
6) once the paint window has opened then
click edit and paste your screen shot and
save it as as type "JPEG" file.
HOW TO LOAD YOUR SCREENSHOT:
To load the picture online go to
http://imageshack.us
browse your computer to locate the file, as shown above
in step #4, and click "host it". and poof you've created your
own screenie for you to share. and all that's
left to do is paste it into forums or an "BBcode"
accepted site.
HOW TO POST YOUR SCREENSHOT
To post an image that's already up copy the
address/url of the image by right clicking
the shot then go to properties which should be
the last option on the list then include the url
in the following code:
[img]url here[/img]
lastly copy n paste the code into forums or an "BBcode"
accepted site.
