Default How to get screenshots of the game into FMF

a lot of people have been asking how to get screenshots of players/teams etc. in fm onto a thread in FMF
because of this, here is a really easy tutorial on how to do so!
  1. In Football Manager, at the desired screen, press the Print Screen Button, usually at the top of the keyboard, near scroll lock
  2. Open Microsoft Paint
  3. Press Ctrl + V to paste the screenshot
  4. Save the file as a jpeg (File>Save As>Save as File Type>JPEG)
  5. Go to ImageShack® - Hosting
  6. Click Borwse, find your file, press ok, and then click on Host It!
  7. Copy the Hot Link for Forums (1) link and paste it into a new post/new thread here

Yep, very helpful Ap, will clear up a lot of the problems people have!


Although I do have a better method.

Scrap steps 1-4, and follow these, as it is a lot quicker!!!!

1. In Football Manager, at the desired screen, press Alt + F9 simultaneously. This will save the picture in the following directory:

Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2008/Screenshots

Then follow steps 5-7 when you've done this!

2. Go to ImageShack® - Hosting
3. Click Borwse, find your file, press ok, and then click on Host It!
4. Copy the Hot Link for Forums (1) link and paste it into a new post/new thread here

Hope this helps!!!!

no problem guys
and th's way (alt+f9) is very useful, as you can just keep playing and maybe post the stuff when u close fm
except if you have a dial-up conneciton (or as slow as that) cuz its gonna take too long to upload png files (about 500k each)

Yer the first way is definitely better for Dial Upperers, but the ALT F9 way is so easy otherwise!!!!!!!
