This is quite acceptable - although you may want to consider doing a real FLDQ run when somebody posts a lower time with the same number of battleship kills or higher. 
Making a screenshot is as simple as hitting the print screen button (PrScr? Don't know, I have a German keyboard), and trimming the picture and converting it to JPEG to make it smaller are not difficult either. Where it gets tricky is actually posting the screenie. If you have webspace of your own then you can upload the picture and link it from your post via the IMG tag. If you don't then you can mail me the screenie and I put up your entry.
Doing an FLDQ run can be quite interesting because it poses some new challenges. For example, there is now doubt that the most powerful ship for the Liberty phase of the campaign is a Dagger outfitted with Xenos Adv. Scorpions, a Pyros Turret Type 1, an Adv. Stunpulse and perhaps some missiles if you like them. With such a setup I have slain Centurions, Stilettos and oodles of Falcons (to get a full complement of Catapult missiles before mission 5 - one missile per Unioner Falcon).
But obtaining that rig takes a looooong time so you'll probably get better results with a Patriot or Defender (or even a Rhino) and some kit that you can obtain along the path of the campaign or with very short detours, like hitting the Balboa wreck in California (two minutes overhead net you a Pyros Turret Type 1 plus $30k's worth of cardamine plus two Pyros Type 2 guns that'll be very useful later in the campaign) ...
