Hello,

I am a new member and would like to know how to download a screenshot for the April Screenshot contest. I have read the rules but not sure what to do . I have my screenshot to the correct size but need help on how to submit in laymen terms.

Thanks,

Mike

Before posting a screenshot, read this:

http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1269916328


Next, do the following:

1. Make sure your screenshot is NOT wider than 1024 pixels.
2. Make sure your screenshot is NOT heavier than 150kb.

3. Upload your screenshot here: http://www.simviation.com/yabbupload.html

4. Open a new topic in the April Screenshot area, and post the link that step 3 provided you right into the message area. No need to add it as an attachment. Just post the link in the area that you would type in, and make sure the image  tags are on either end of it, which they should be from after step 3.

Also, the correct terminology: You "upload" screenshots/your creations to the website. "Downloading" is when you receive something from the website, such as one of our aircraft files. From the server to your computer. Upload = you send something. Download = You receive something.  ;)

Good luck,
-Sean

Mike. Make sure the image has no spaces in the file name before uploading it.

Thanks for the help, that fixed the problem.

I was able to submit my screenshot to the April Screenshot Contest.

Best Regards, Mike
