il88pp Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Taking screenshots with the -V- key in FSX saves the files as bitmap files (xxxxxx.bmp). .bmp files can not be uploaded to the server. They will have to be JPEG image files (xxxxxx.jpg) to be able to upload them. 1 Option: You can convert .bmp files to .jpg files. Open file xxxxxx.bmp with paint. (paint is a simple drawing program included in windows) click file - save as in the file type box select jpeg/jpg (leave the file name the same) click ok. a new file is now created, xxxxxx.jpg Option 2: Use the free program 'Snapper'. http://Http://Www.michielovertoom.com/software/snapper A utility that takes screenshots, and stores them in any folder you want. It saves the files directly in .jpg format. Snapper can even print the fsx location on the screenshot! It is not a fsx utility per se, it will take screenshots of any program you want. Very usefull. Enjoy. il88pp [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jefferysitz Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Option 4. Hit the "print screen" button up at the top of the keyboard. This will copy it to your clipboard. Open Paint and paste the image there and save it as a jpg. This will work with any screen, website, whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StringBean Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Option #5- If you are using Win 7 or 8 you have the Snipping Tool available. It will save in JPEG format at a file size acceptable to the forum software. peace, the Bean WWOD---What Would Opa Do? Farewell, my freind (sp) Never argue with idiots.
