Well, I finally am almost finished with my review. Now all I need is alittle help with the screenshot. It is a text game so I only need the title screen. I can't download dosbox...my pc is to slow. Does anyone know any other easy ways to take them...? I am not good at technical things so please take it easy on me. :bye:

Well,
if you´re unable to download dosbox,
screenshot programs are propably also out of question

Which leaves (in my knowledge) only the "print scrn" button on the keyboard/

Basically just press the button when in the title screen,
and then try to paste it to paint or any other similiar program,
And Hope It Works /-

Nice to see you working hard Squalidangel!!!

If it's a text based game and you're having trouble with getting the title screen I guess it's OK. The person who'll update the game will make the shot (they're friendly and only ne shot at the begining isn't much to ask - especailly taking in the consideration you can't because of the hardware/software problem).
It's the long games with lots of graphics that screenshots are a problem...

SqualidAngel did not say he could not download DOSBox because his PC was too slow, but that he could not run DOSBox because his PC was too slow. Heck, DOSBox is 1 meg, if you can't download that you have a very serious problem...

Eh?
What?
Oh, now I get it,
sorry...

Free screenshot programs

I know this is completely but Squalidangel isn't a HE, it's a SHE. :wub:

Sorry. It's hard for me to keep track of members since it seems to be a trend lately to change avatar every week or so.

* It's hard for me to keep track of members since it seems to be a trend lately to change avatar every week or so.

Which plays not by any rules of reason,
is annoying, disorienting & confusing /-

Though I do understand if people need changes,
It´s just, well,
quite quite vain /-

[Sebatianos]

Well I'm still not fully satisfied with mine, so It'll keep changing until I am (but It'll always be connected to one thing - Ghostbusters, so you'll recognise me).

This thread is about taking screenshots, not about other people avatar. Please do not force me to make this topic the first one I close as a moderator.

I warn you guys, if you think the other moderators were annoying then you'll have a hard time with me. This is troubleshooting section, there is no reason to start a chat. Help Squalid or start a new thread in the Bla Bla Bla forum.

It may sounds like I'm jumping on you guys but in fact I'm not, I'm only striking the iron when it's hot. I don't think pinning a topic would be appropriate, and I noticed the opportunity here to tell you guys.

I want the troubleshooting section to be clean. Most of the time those who need help are already tired by searching an answer to their problem, they might not care enough to browse thru a 2-3 page topic if it's full of off topic posts... So please, keep to the point of the topic and keep it simple, it will help everyone.
