HOW CAN I POST SCREENSHOTS HERE? WHAT IS THE SECRET? Thanks.

There's a button on your keyboard along the top level called "PrtScn SysRq". That button is the beginning of the process. You will also need a free photo editing program.
paint.NET is what I use, and it's never steered me wrong.
Once you have paint.NET up and running, it should be a snap. 1) Bring the image onscreen in your game that you wish to upload to the forum. 2) Press the "PrtScn SysRq" button. 3) Open paint.NET. 4) Ctrl+V (which is the paste function via your keyboard. 5) Now the image should be in your paint.NET window. Two options will come up. Click on "Expand Canvas". 6) Now the image is ready to be saved. You can save it to your pictures folder named as you choose, so click Save as... (Name).PNG (or whatever the extension happens to be). It's usually a .PNG file coming from OOTP though. 7) Another window will pop up. Click Save. 8) Now your image is saved in your Pictures folder. Go to make your post. Click on "Manage Attachments" box to attach the image you wish to attach to your post. This box is located below the post window. 9) A window will pop up with "Upload file from your computer" Hit one of the three "Browse..." buttons and it will take you to your PC. 10) Go into your Pictures folder, and click on the image you just saved from your game. 11) Hit the "Upload" button. You should now see the file you want to post in your "Manage Attachments" section. 12) Click "Preview Post" or "Submit Reply", and your image should be there. Hope this helps.
