How do you post game images from OOTP on here?

ThatSeventiesGuy · 04-05-2013, 01:18 PM

I know this is going to sound like a dumb question, but how do you post game images, say a box score or season results page, on here? I have a thread on the Dynasties part of the forum, and I'd like to be able to post season results, and Steve Carlton's no-hitter box score, and things like that. Do you have to put them on an internet page first?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

If you just want an image of the page than what you need to do is open up an Image Editor program whether it be printshop, photoimpression, adobe etc. Than you need to go to your game and hit the print screen button which is on your keyboard next to the scroll lock button and above the number keypad. After hitting the print screen button you go to your image editor program and paste the image. Then you save it, upload it to wherever you upload images such as Imageshack.com and then you can post it on your dynasty page.

Okay, hopefully that'll work in GIMP. Thanks!

I use the Windows Snipping tool and Microsoft Paint. I capture the portion of the screen I want, copy and paste into paint, save and upload the paint file. I like it because I can manage how much of the game i copy at the start with Snip.

There a few free programs you could download. FastStone is good. I also like PicPick. You want a capture of the box score: select it, click, save, then upload.

I like Greenshot.

Thanks for the suggestions, everybody. I've decided to go with PicPick for now, but I may try something else later. Do any of you know if any program will capture the WHOLE page, not just the part you happen to have on screen?
