Hello everyone in the Forum Art Community.

I was wondering if one of you could show/tell me how to upload images on to imageshack. (Or whatever those websites are called) Also, how do you take pictures from within ICON or the character selection screen again?

I can never remember the instructions, which is why I ask for the help of the 21st Century Art Lords!

First off, use Photobucket instead. A lot of work places put blocks on Imageshack.

http://www.photobucket.com

Just open an account and start uploading They've really made it easy. In Photobucket you get a trio of links that automatically copy and you can use the html link (not the image link because you can't upload an image here period) to get right to the image.

Basically the normal way you take screenshots except you have to paste them to paint or a program like that. I'm not sure about imageshack but on photobucket the process is quiet easy...

Yeah -

Screenshots normally save in your /coh/screenshots directory. But with the UI or something else in the way of a normal save, you need to have your editing program (paint, photoshop, etc) open already. Click your print screen button, and then immediately go to your paint program and paste into it. That's the only way to do it, otherwise you get a screenie of whatever your toon's looking at

Wow! Thanks for the help! The bad news, now I owe you.

(Time for me to start drawing... Hopefully I won't mess it up this time...)
