Well... www.photobucket.com is my default host... as for getting the shot... just push the "print screen" button and, blam-o, a screen shot of the screen at the exact moment you pushed that button will appear in your coh/screen shots folder. Or if you want a good screeny of your costume, got to Icon... once in the costume editor window, push that magic button then open some kind of image editing program... MS paint will work, and tell it to past as a new image... save it as a jpg, and upload it to the host of your choice 
While the bulk of this forum is mostly concerned with art and the creation there of (or at least the parts I read 
) I think there might be a costuming thread floating around here somewhere by Ianthem1...
Thanks for replies, Was lookin for costume or fan art suggestions. Ill get a photo bucket account and post some snap shots along with my Bio later this afternoon. Provided of course anyone is interested (and for free heh, no $$$$ here, broke as a joke).
I currently have a few people lined up that I am using as practise work. I can add you to the list if you'd like. I can't promise the things will be done anytime soon as my life gets a little crazy from time to time.

OMG I'm gonna have fun with that one. I might have to do a chibi of him.

You can do it however you like. Just wanted to see what others might have done. Glad you like. I did a little research on Chibi (and looked at some of you other pics, cant wait to see what you do).
I coulda sworn I came to this forum once before and saw someone does costume makeovers. Im gonna have to look that up too. See my SG on champion has gotten tired of lookin at my toon (Apparently some are scared for life), they took up a infamy drive, and offered to pay for a new costume ; )
Even ran me through the costume slot missions.
I just wanted to bump this, versus re post same content. As I hadnt heard anything from those who seemed interested. If anyone is interested in giving Napoleon a new look Id love to see it.
Not 'sposed to bump your own Topics, Hehateme.

Indeed. Bad hehateme, bad!
I'll see if I can come up with some costume options for you. I'm not an artist but I love playing with the costume creator.
your = Belonging to you.
you're = Contraction meaning "You are."
Ur = The name of an ancient Mesopotamian city.
ur = This is not a word.
Ok, got a new costume idea for you. Let me know what you think of it.
The idea came pretty easily to me because I just recently created a character from the American Revolution and once I read your bio it all came together pretty quickly for me.
Pieces:
Head: I attempted to simply recreate the head on the original character. There are always changes that should be made, and those that shouldn't. I feel as though the face you created was a part of the character's identity and wanted to keep that. So, no changes to the head.
Upper Body:
Military Formal jacket in blue with gold trim. Evil epaulets for shoulders. Dress Shirt 2 for chest (the one without the tie). Demon tail belt in keeping with the original costume. Heavy Leather gloves for hands in black. Chest emblem is the Fleur de lise on the jacket (Over) in gold with white border.
Lower Body:
Tucked In option with white pants (style of the time). Stripe 1 in black for some contrast. Folded Shiny Leather boots with no pattern, in black.
Obviously these are all optional. I went with a costume like this in part because it was a such a departure from the original and also because it fits with his obsession with Napoleon to wear a Napoleonic era uniform.
*Edit*
I just realized we can't see the tail in the picture I posted, but it really is there.
your = Belonging to you.
you're = Contraction meaning "You are."
Ur = The name of an ancient Mesopotamian city.
ur = This is not a word.
Seemed silly to repost the exact same post, just a few months later. I had all the links posted here, my bio etc. Otherwise I wouldnt have bumped my own thread. That and Id gotten such a warm response the first time, I figured some of those posters might return.
I like the costume. Itll occupy a costume slot for sure. Thanks
No problem. Like I said, I'm no artist but I really enjoy the costume creator. And making a new costume for you prevented me from creating a new alt for myself.
your = Belonging to you.
you're = Contraction meaning "You are."
Ur = The name of an ancient Mesopotamian city.
ur = This is not a word.
Here's a couple of options I cobbled together:

feel free to use and claim them as your own if you like.

Thank you--it helps keep me from making more alts--Hello, I'm an altaholic.
Fun toon BTW--Love that Bio and Gratz on lvl 50.
Have occasionally checked it out though. Its my understanding some of you like to do drawings or new costumes for peeps toons.
I cant promise I would use the new look (very attached to my current one) but was curious to see what yall would come up with (and I do have 2 other costume slots).
So if anyone is interested, how would I go about getting the picture of my toon you need? How would I host it? and of course is anyone interested? (btw I am technically inclined and know my way around the CoH client, so tons of detailed instructions probably arent necessary)
Ill happily take some screenies, and post his bio for yall to get inspiration. Toons name is Napoleon Complex.
