Just like the title says. What is the process to take a scren shot. Then what needs to be done to turn it into a picture much like you see in the hotshot screens on the home page of the site. Anybody want to take a crack at describing the process.

all i can tell you is that if you want to take a screenshot then press printscreen during the game. the screen will pause for about 2 seconds and then resume. no it doesnt actually print a picture. f.y.i. im using a dell.

And if you got a Image program such as MSPaint, Paste it in and presto!! Then convert it into JPG using PSP.

Its alot easier then that u need to use a program like MSPaint.

In XP (I kno for sure) when u press the "Print Screen" button the game lags up for 2 seconds, and the prgoram would then make a Screenshot in the "My Documents" in a map called "Freelancer Screens". The images in there will be the resolution u had when u tok the pic and in *.BMP. So the picture is a big one.

Hoped this helped you.
