Here is a little helpful info for you......
When you use GrabClipSave to get your screenshots, it might be wise to rename your shots because if anyone else uses the same prog (and  many do) they will overwrite your files if they load the same number........highly likely if they are just starting (like you), to upload files to the SimV server......
.....make the filenames specific to you....maybe adding in your initials from your personal name....a few of us on here do it that way......it just sorta helps keep your images yours and not get changed innocently by someone else uploading their shots with default GCS filenaming...

Not to mention, keeping them under the posted size limit for the forum...  Screenshots are not to be more than 100k each, and not more than 500k for the whole posting. 

I think your first mistake was in thinking that a trip from Anchorage to Detroit was a 'Short' trip!  I don't think there's anything short about it!

ah   i think a flight from anchorage to detroit isnt that bad.  acorse  once im leveled off i turn on the autopilot and kick it up to 16x besides i took that flight in real life last july.  its realy not that bad for a 6.5 hour flight and i didnt even sleep for any of the flight.    but that was also when i had my laptop  and had it fully charged and 2 hours worth of battery.    Northwest Airlines tries to keep their passengers happy troughout the whole flight.  they constently served snacks and drinks after they had served supper. 

i know the image quality sucks  i dont get that during flying  its just the pics.  i didnt have the gcs set right.  but its a little to late for that.

i thought i kept the pics within the size limit.  ive seen others that are much larger than mine.  they should fit fine.
