Noob guide to posting screenshots

[hasseoliver]

Don't know where to put this but this is how I do it.

First off, if your screenshot is a TGA file you can either download a software to convert files for you or you can use a website like http://image.online-convert.com/convert-to-jpg

I use this software http://easy2convert-tga-to-jpg.software.informer.com/

Once the screenshot is converted it's time to get it uploaded.
Go to http://postimage.org/ upload the file and choose 640x480 (for message boards)
Pick Hotlink 1
Paste it into your text.... And taadaaa!


After all that is done go to the screenshot thread (viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1810&p=127360#p127360) and start uploading!
Good luck.

Clicking your image takes me to postimage and not to a larger size of your screenshot.
If it was intended you should change it

Yeah I know, it's the only website that I found that doesn't cut the picture in half when you post it.

Another thing is that the Screenshots folder is not in the same place as the game files (it's not in C:\Program Files\World of WarCraft\ etc). At least for me using Windows 7, it is in C:\Users\Name\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\World of WarCraft, where "Name" is what your computer is called. In addition the AppData folder is a hidden folder so you have to change your system settings to be able to see hidden folders and files. All in all not easy to figure out if you don't know much about computers.

I use the program IrfanView for viewing TGA images, myself. It's a free download and works great.

Yeah it works but also cuts the picture in half.

There's a tga converter in my Nostalrius WoW Screenshot folder. Came with the package.

Nice, I had my WoW folder prior to launch, mind uploading the TGA converter somewhere? Mine can't do bulks just one at the time. (Used to have one where I could do them in bulks).

It's not "cutting the picture in half", the forum just can't display all of it because of width limitations.
