• 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.

Screenie question

Why do my screenies look like this?
Sorry, I'll try again.
Well okay, when I look at them in the folder they are in black and white and the image is scewed and it looks like 1950's tv.
 
pressing ctrl and ;
and I am such a goof I could not upload the pics either, sorry
 
The images are bitmaps and I see now a message that "this is not a valid image file" in the Manage Attachments window. Are my files too large perhaps?
 
Use irfanview and convert them (there's even a batch convert option) or open them in MS Paint and save as jpg?
 
another try

Try again... this is what I get. Don't look so nice. But I converted to jpg and was able to get the image to show here. Thanks Pol.
 
Wow that's well wierd :)

Never seen that before, but something screwed with video memory or something. Try using FRAPS (free and can take screenshots too) and see what it does?
