Re: :(

Hi, OP here. First of all, i'm simply baffled that even after all this time, the same issue is still going on. The three replies you listed are almost exactly the things i recall being told after multiple messages / requests for update on the art. :/

Screenshotting is pretty simple - just hit the "prt scr" button on your keyboard, just to the right of your F12 key. You can then open paint and hit ctrl+v or rightclick and select paste. Then it's up to you to decide wether you'd like to trim the picture with the crop tool (as i did in my post).

For OSX i had to look it up, but command + shift + 3 is the screenshot combination on it. command + shift + 4 should let you drag an area to screenshot, achieving the same result as i did but in a different way.

Failing those methods, there's specific screenshot software out there that lets you make up your own hotkey and automatically names and saves the file in a location. I used lightscreen a long time ago, and there's a portable version of that so if you want you don't even need to really install it.

(Wow, really long post to explain such a simple feature. :P)
