I've never bother to try to grab screenies before. What software do you use (or....how do you take the screen shot)?

FSX has a built in capture button. On my system it's hotkeyed "V"

Bummer.
I'm running FS9.

There are a lot of options out there Ted, this is just one:

Check it out, I'm on my laptop but if you're still interested I'll get the name of the app I use.

Or this Ted

It's so easy even I can work it

You get various choices how to save the image.

Then upload to here-

You'll get the option of putting thumbnails or larger images straight onto your posts. Like this

I use FRAPS which is payware but can do both screenshots and video.

You can upload images directly to your post rather than go thru imageshack or other similar site if you wish.

Thanks guys for your help!

I'm tighter than bark on a tree, so I'll look into the free stuff first.....

Here is the really, really cheap way to do it:
1) Hit "Print Screen" on your keyboard
2) Paste into Paint



(In case anyone wonders why I don't post screenshots, the above procedure is why...)

When I flew FS9, I used Fscreen.exe (or was it fsscreen.exe?). It's free and I think you can find it on Avsim.

So what you're sayin' is that this is sound advice?

Gadwin PrintScreen 4.4 is free and works really nice: http://www.gadwin.com/printscreen/

I use Snapper, simple, free and easy: http://www.ovosoft.net/snapper/

Snapper, that's the one I use too.

How about the one built into FSFK.. "Ctrl-F12" and Bang! you've got a screen shot (or shots) waiting until your ready to save it (them), during or afer your flight. works Great.

I for one don't use FSFK only GCP; however, that brings up a good point. Maybe Justin could add this feature to GCP the next time he's bored out of his mind?
