It seems that everyone is taking screenshots all the time. Like for example in the "best kill" thread a lot of people have screenshots... how the hell you do it. By the time I play and some thing interesting happens it already too late for me to take a screenshot. Call me noob or whatever but I dont even know the key for it.

LOL, I tried that but it didnt work, so what I like to do is get my digital camera and quickly take the pic, scan it and host it on imageshacktF-afrojap wrote:

What you want to do is, if you come across a moment you want to capture, stare at the screen for a while. Make sure the image is burned into the back of your eyes. Then promptly alt-tab to desktop and open ms-paint.
I don't know any other way, maybe uncle google will have some tips.

Alright, since I'm a nice guy, I'll give a serious answer in a manner so basic anyone could do it.
So you're playing BF2 and fucking sweet, I just got (a knife kill, a medal, a ribbon, TKd by NoobMurderer, used for stat padding, etc)!!! Awesome! To save that moment as a JPEG (and also a PNG, in case you need to Photoshop it), hit Print Screen (it's the key to the right of your row of F-keys). You can do this as much as you like, hard drive space permitting.
Afterwards, go to My Documents, where there should be a folder called Battlefield 2. In that folder should be another, called Screenshots. Double click on that and Windows will crash to a Blue Screen of Death...
Sorry, that's just for me. Your screenshots should be in that folder--2 files for each actually. The smaller is a low-quality JPEG for use on forums and such. The bigger one is a PNG, which is a faithful uncompressed version of the JPEG.
Hope this helps!
