• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

screen capture

Google FSScreen.. I believe its for Vista too....

Very simple to use


But in Vista can't you just keep hitting Print screen??... I forget ...
 
Henry, if you don't mind larger files, just hit the "V" key in FSX which saves a BMP.

I gave the commercial "Aerosohot" a whirl, which works fine as long as you're not running DX10 software. Ie. FSX in DX10 mode or Crysis, which it saves as a black screenie!

Sadly GrabClipSave, which I've used for years, didn't make the transition to Vista, it crashes often.
 
Apart from the "prtscr" and "V" keys, I use payware "Snagit". But you don't need any payware or freeware addons. Just open the snapped shots in windows paint or picture viewers and crop to size, save as jpg...

Most printer software also comes with some simple picture sizing and basic editing tools too.
 
I also use Screenhunter 5.0 Free. Used it on XP 32 bits and now on Vista 64 bits.
 
Thanks
snapshooter saves into jpgs
so i dont have to mess with them
i can edit in photoshop
but its a lot easier to not mess with them
