Making a Print Screen of Your Sims

(1/3) > >>

Gamblor:
How do you create a print screen or a shot of a Sim with the pie menu up so you can show people on the forums? I have tryed to take a photo shot in the game but the pie menu closes everytime I take one. Is there something else I could do. Sorry I am new to this.

SaraMK:
The easiest way is to use a stand-alone screen capture program. The best one out there, and the one most people use, is Gadwin PrintScreen. It's free. Google it.

You could also use the built-in screen capture tool in Windows. Press CTRL and the Print SCRN button together, and the image gets copied to the clipboard. You will then need to paste it into a graphics editing program like MS Paint (which you already have in Windows), Photoshop, or some other program.

Gamblor:
Thank Yoy so much SaraMK. Your the best ;)

Gamblor:
How do you open up the clipboard?

SaraMK:
You can't. You need to open a graphics program and chose Paste. Assuming you added an image to the clipboard using CTRL + Print SCRN, the image will appear.
