Wrong forum. The Miscellanious (http://dreamcatcherinteractive.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=11) forum would've been more appropiate I guess or the one in the Painkiller section thats for off topic stuff (forget the name). Anyhow some mod will probably move this.

I don't have World of Warcraft so I dunno but....
I play a lot of SP games and I take 100's of screens. Since it's not always apparent what the dealie is with what key is the screenshot key so I went and found a solution... or whatever. Anyways I just use GrabClipSave (http://boumchalak.net/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=36&func=fileinfo&parent=category&filecatid=1) for all my screenshots. It cuts out all the looking through txt files, game menu's and such for the elusive screenshot key. Besides I wanted to take nice screens in Blade of Darkness and the game put them in some weirdo location and 90% of them were screwed up.... so I got that program. Works great.

Then again it might be easier for you to know what key in World of Warcraft is the screenshot key. Did you check the game menu under the section where you assign keys?

hit your "PrntScrn" key, you'll see a "screen capture" msg appear briefly in your WoW window. the screenies get auto-saved to:

C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Screenshots

as "TGA" files.

download IrfanView (http://www.techspot.com/download299.html) for viewing, resizing and changing TGA to either JPG or BMP files. :) great free proggy.

V***V

PS: i think you only get 10 slots for screenshots in your WoW/Screenshots folder, so i create a subfolder that i can store them in and not worry about the older ones getting overwritten.
