When making screenshot to upload them, press PRINTSCREEN, then open MS PAINT, then press CTRL+V to  paste the screenshot into MS Paint, then select FILE>SAVE AS, and then select the JPEG format.. select folder u wanna save it to, then Press OK/SAVE  .. Done ;)

You need to install a program that can take a picture of your screen. You can use the program FS Screen you can find it in the download section. The only bad thing about this program is it saves in bmp format. I use a program called screenshooter it can save in both bmp and jpg format and you can also set the picture size. I think you can find this program on avsim.com.
hope this helps you

It's really quite simple, it just sounds confusing. That said, you will need a paint program to get the best results. I use Photo Shop Elements to convert pictures from FS Screen. Remember using FS Screen will save the pictures in the directory where you run the program from though.
(FS Screen can be found here: http://www.fly-euroharmony.com/site/sugdownload.php)
Give it a try, it's not as hard as flying a plane :)

You have to open Fs screen just before flying in FS. When you want to take a picture you have only to press the print button and fs screen will take the picture of the screen. It's very easy. You have to open the strange icon in the Fs screen folder. Ask me everything you want because 2 months ago I was confused like you...:>

No it's very easy: open the icon and start flying, then when you press the print button on the keyboard Fs screen will save the pic. When you open Fs screen it is activated and everytime you push the print button it saves pics. Ok?

Open the FS screen folder inside of it there is a coloured icon. Click on it and Fs is opened. It isn't on Flight Sim. Whish this helps,

The disadvance off FSscreen only BMP and the lack off control how you will store and edit  a picture.

I use this one:
MultiGrab (http://www.mnwright.btinternet.co.uk/programs/mgrab.htm)

With multigrab you can store in BMP and in Jpeg (jpg), in Jpeg you can set quality level , and more options.

Yes that seems much better than FSscreen, I'v tried it and it makes it much simpler
