This may be a stupid question

How do you shot a screenshot in a post to show your ration and speed test when asked

[Barbarossa]

press the printscreen button, and paste into a graphics editor.

What barbie said.

Take a screenshot, using the Prt Scrn-button, start up some graphics editor. MS paint will do in a pinch. Paste.

Preferably you should select the relevant bits and copy those into a new image (or just crop it, if you can), so you don't have a huge pic with lots of unnecessary stuff.

Upload the picture somewhere. http://imageshack.us/ will do nicely.

Then copy the direct address to the image.

Then wrap that url in -tags to put it in a post, or your signature.

url to image goes here

http://imagegen.last.fm/blackred/recenttracks/6/SnnY.gif becomes http://imagegen.last.fm/blackred/recenttracks/6/SnnY.gif for example.

Or you can mix it up even more and have one version of the image to link to a bigger one or something, like:

[IMG]http://www.google.com/logos/sweden08_res.gif

Which becomes:

http://www.google.com/logos/sweden08_res.gif (http://www.google.com/logos/sweden08_res.gif)

Thanks for the help guys

[Barbarossa]

to be honest, I found snee's "help" a bit patronising :snooty:

[Snee]

Racist.

[100%]

Shocking, a fully explained help post, non one linear.

This should go straight to sticky guide tutorial world

I found the flag mildly patronizing yet kinky.

There are tons of free screen capture software out there also.

I don't think Snee's help was that patronising. Bearing in mind that i had no idea what to do i thought his help was really useful. You only found it partonising because you knew what to do. And yeah i agree this should be made a sticky

[Something Else]

Nobody even made a joke with the ration thing. :O

Some speedtest sites. (The 1st one you find on google)
Will give you code to post the image in a forum at the bottom of the page. :smilie4:
