Well, first go get FS Screen here: http://www.aircraft-photos.net/aspnet_forum/tm.asp?m=3030&mpage=1&key=&anchor#30...
Its a screenshot taking program.  It allows you to continue flying while taking screenshots, instead of having to pause or minimize FS after each shot.

You don't really have to pause the sim to take a screenshot with this program, but I find that it helps because you can position the camera exactly where you want before taking shots.  Really makes a difference when you take shots of stunts or certain stuff in the background.

It will save the shots to whatever folder the program is located in so you can take as many as you want and go through them to find the best one.

Good luck!  Hope to be seeing some great shots soon . . .

Wellllll . . .

The only thing I can come up with here is to do a search for FS Screen.  You might have to go through a few pages of stuff, as there are plenty of links with that phrase in them.

And who is Mike? ???
