stupid question here: how to post a screenshot

[KromeHWI]

how do you post screen shots from the game into a post in a thread, such as this one?

[DonVonHulio]

Take the screenshot using Steam, then upload it to your profile and finally link it to the thread.

Press F12 ingame to utilize steam screenshot.

[KromeHWI]

cool. i know how to take steam screenshots.

how do upload to your profile and link to it?

also, it is possible to link via other uploads? like dropbox?

can you use the ingame screen shot with the "upload to steam" option?

sorry, i know this is pretty basic stuff, but i never learned how to do it.

Uploading is covered in the "How do I share a screenshot?" button under the Screenshots tab (top of the page).

After it's uploaded click on the pic, copy the web address from the upper left corner and paste it here.

Not a stupid question at all. The screenshots from this particular game don't automatically show up on your page for this game. You have to go into the in game menue (Tab key) and select the screenshots tab. From there you can upload them to your steam profile. After that, follow the standard Steam screenshot sharing directions.

thanks everyone!

here is a test to see if it works (ie if i got it right):

Perhaps it is also easier to upload the ingame Screeshot you find in the Folder as Artwork.

any HTTP Link will work here. you can upload and post even Porn at the Risk of getting the heaviest Account Restriction you ever imagined in your little Life. Bots will do their Thing asap.

it is easy to change the ingame Screenie-button to your Steam Screenie-Button and turn it into a Win. After every Game you will be able to pick the best Ones for an Upload.

Lovely Tower! nice you got it now!

thanks!
its mostly above water. each level has a different plant scheme, as well as aprox depth appropriate fish in smaller tanks. ive collected most of the eggs in the game for the big tank. still working on the outdoor garden.

i was asking about posting images for a question i had in a different thread (which then got answered anyway), but figure if im gonna post a test image anyway, i might as well show off my modest base a little.

its half the fun on this game. base design.

feel free to share as well!

so nice with the small Aquariums at the side. (remember you can put dead Herbivores in the small Aquarium and they will live again.) #Hospital

the Boneshark in the Topfloor Pic looks like a little Reaper... REAPER EGG CONFIRMED! OO
*sets the whole Kraken Altar on Fire*

bummer that you can not scan the oculi. seems to be the only collectable fish in the game that you can not scan. (or is this just me?)

spinefish and apparently reapers aren't scannable right now either. but that's fine. oculi and spinefish are just reskins of peepers and hoopfish, respectively, and i have no intention of getting close enough to a reaper long eough to try scanning him right now.

I like what you did with "The Deck" gonna build one for myself.

You might want to post these in the thread where everyone shares their screenshots

Very nice by the way :)

[KromeHWI]

thanks! the deck was pretty tricky actually. beause for whatever reason it would only let me place it a level ABOVE where i was standing (rather than flush to the level i was at already). so i had to build the deck, and then build ANOTHER floor above where i was when i built the deck to match the level correctly. i probably could have just built a lower floor hallway to stand on (in order to build up), but i wanted to add another floor anyway to make my aquarium larger. it would be nice if the game gave you a little more freedom of placement for base building. as it is you have to come up with some creative workarounds.

@stocol: thanks for the link. ill prolly repost them there.

[broken condom]

no here's the really stupid question: how do you get the screenshot box thing in this thread (and others) instead of a link? i must be doing something wrong.
