How to Setup a Screenshot(Sticky? :D)

[Strengthfizz]

This is my first guide so if it isn't very good I will accept some constructive Critisism, If it has been done before I did not know and I apoligize. I would love if this got stickied, So if you enjoy or want to thank me for this Please post it.


First off whatever you want to screenshot you will go to it and either just press the Prt sc (print Screen) button located at the top right of your keyboard or if you have a laptop like mine you press fn and prt sc.

Next You will open paint or a similar program to paste it into:

When you are in Paint you will click the Paste Button or press CTRL+V

You can now make changes to the picture or highlight or Whatever you want.

You now click the button at the top right and click save as, Select where and save it.

Now you use your favorite Media hosting website, I use photobucket to upload it to.

Find your picture in whichever album you put it in and click it, Now find the IMG code which is what you will need to copy for it to show up in your forum post.

Last but not least, Paste this IMG code into your post and it WILL show up if you did everything right.

Basic information, everybody knows this as screenshots are required on almost all mmorpg related sales threads (and this is a black market site after all). Also, your sentence structure is horrible, no offense.

That is rubbish..
There is a ridiculous amount of people who do not know how to upload pictures and post onto Sythe

OT: Although this guide explains everything fairly well it lacks of originality and there is numerous guides on the topic.
For your first guide it is not bad but if you write another guide thing of something more original.

EDIT: Also one other thing.. In the first picture the "FN" bit can be a lot clearer

There's already stickies in the black market section that describe how to setup and take a screenshot. I'll go ahead and take the time to critique your guide.

First off, it's a great guide to write on, and it simply helps out everyone and anyone who uses the black market on a daily basis. I think you did a great job cropping the pictures so that it just shows a bit of what you're trying to explain and not your whole computer screen.

Secondly, I suggest adding some appealing and bold coloring to the text. It doesn't look as appealing, and it's real hard to read the steps on how to do this. Also, you're 3rd picture could use some cropping, and you could possibly make it smaller.

Thirdly, I'd write a guide on how to setup and take a screenshot in a different way than the one you described above. Again, there's plenty of more detailed guides that show how to take a screenshot using the Ctrl + Print Screen method.

Hopefully you take some of the critique I've given on your thread, and changed it for the better. Looking forward to your changes. Good luck.
