    In the GFX community many of you guys use screenshots to quickly show what we are working on to other taggers.
    Its also great for helping staff with bugs you encounter.

    Just thought id show you this software.

    Its by far the best screenshot software I have found to date and I have used quite a lot of different ones.
    It uploads the files as a .png file instead of a link which is great and it does a lot more.




    http://gyazo.com/

    That is a link to where you can download it.

    Download it and install it.

    After its installed you will see two icons. One is for animated gifs where it records a part of the screen you highlight for 30 seconds.

    This is the icon you will need to click for still screenshots.

    After you click that icon the software will give you the option to click and drag to highlight an area of the screen.
    After you release the mouse button it will automatically upload the image.

    When it is upload all you have to do is right click the image and the click the option to "Copy image URl".

    On Chrome it will look like this.






    When its copied all you have to do is post the image on Torn.

    you can also make gifs with the software, i thought it was more well known about honestly but the fact people who know so much more than me about graphics only recently found this i guess i'm wrong o.o - i agree with hades, it's really a useful tool and great for quickly sharing images or whatever from your screen (i've been using it for just over a year)

    Yea. The gif thing is a really useful addon. I have used it a few times to explain what I mean a few times. Easily useful piece of equipment for sure.

    Most of the committee use gyazo when doing bug reports when beta testing new updates. Its a super useful tool and wish I had learned of it sooner. My fav feature is that it hosts your screenshot making it super easy for us dumb people to post it somewhere.

    Speaking of dumb you shoulda seen this post before I had to edit all the mistakes lol.

    Tbh thats where I found this out. When you get 1000k karma you unlock free roam and the honorbar along with secret areas to Torn, In this area I seen Ched posting an image which was a screen shot and noticed it was hosted in a strange place to me. I looked into ity and found out what it was.

    Ched you are the man.

    Am I weird for looking into things in such a way? lol Maybe I have problems. Hahaha
