Posting Pics

Someone asked how to cap and then post a screenie. This is how you do it:

1) While you're doing whatever you want to snap, press the "prtsc" button. A message acknowledging that you've taken a pic should appear on your screen

2) Explore your computer (right click on the Computer icon)

3) Open your hard drive

4) Go to "Programs" and click on it

5) Scroll down to Guild Wars and click on it

6) Click on the screens button and then choose the image you want to attach

7) Right click on the image and open your editting program

8 ) Convert the image to a jpeg and note the folder in which you are placing the image

9) Open the forum, type your message, and then click on the "Add image to post" button [in yellow]

10) Browse for your image, find the file, and then press upload

11) Press submit, and the image should attach automatically to your message

I know this sounds complicated, but it isn't once you get the hang of it. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask in game.~~Maia

If you want to take a clear screenie without all of the stats boxes and writing, hold down shift when you press printscreen. The screen will flash then you'll see the confirmation.
If you wan't to see what it looks like without all of the boxes press Shift+Ctrl+H (then press print screen if you want to cap it. Because chat window disappears you wont see the confirmation). To get your boxes and bars back press Shift+Ctrl+H again.
