If anyone has some nice screen shots of their adventures in Middle Earth please share them here!
1. Find the picture you want, you might want to some "pre-editing" first: {to take off names = hit "N",} {hide all screen items = hit "F12" key}.
2. Then hit the "print scrn" button on your keyboard. The game automatically creates a LOTRO file in "My Documents" and saves all the screen-shots sequentially there, very easy. (Just need to rename them as you like.)
3. Go to your paint program.
4. Under "edit" click on "paste."
5. Then you can do more editing if shot needs any, cropping, resizing etc.
6. Save as .jpg or .gif- NEVER NEVER as a .bmp!!! Too large a file.
To attach your shot use the "manage attachments" tab within each post. Find where you saved you pict and upload then wait for it to complete.
Remember to crop your pict to include just the visual effect you want in the shot.
Evendim:
I went to the mountain top for a North view across the lake looking towards the Ranger outpost on Tinnundir, (island middle left) with the colossal Kings Crossing Statue (bridge) to the right.
The next is looking E with a section of the sunken & ruined capital of Annuminas in the background.
(sun was out so I had to shade my eyes!)
