How to Post Full Boxscores

[Art Deco]

I've noticed a lot of folks put in unnecessary extra work posting box scores in multiple pieces when you can easily do it with a couple of steps using a web browser.

After you leave your game when finished playing, open the box again and you'll see an "open in browser" option on the upper right side. Click that and the box will open in a browser window in whatever is set as your default browser.

For Firefox:

1. In the browser tab with the box score right-click and select "Take Screenshot". You'll then get a tool to either drag around the entire border of the box score (if you want to post the whole thing) or to click on a section of it should you just want to copy a section.

2. Once you've copied it, paste it into Paint or another image application if you want to save it locally if you either want to keep it for yourself or use the "attach image" function in this forum. My suggestion is that it's easiest just to paste into another tab with the free image-storing service Imgur (https://imgur.com/upload) then right click on the image after it says "upload complete" so you have the imgur link. Then just click on "insert image" (the fifth icon from the right at the top of the post) to put it in your post wherever you want as opposed to attaching the image which sticks it at the bottom.

For Microsoft Edge:

1. In the browser tab with your box score, right-click and select "web capture and web select". Click "Capture Area" and you'll have the same tool as in Firefox to drag around the borders of the box score and then copy.

2. Same as step 2 above.

For Chrome and other browsers:

I don't use Chrome but my understanding is that it does allow screen shots but they're sent to a folder where you then have to open the image in an image-editing tool to complete the process, which adds an extra step.

I'm not on a Mac so I have no idea how Safari handles it either although it doesn't take much to Google "how to take a screenshot in (X) browser".

This also doesn't just work for box scores but any other long reports OOTP generates (stats pages, career/season leaders) that can't be captured fully by a simple screen grab.
