After you take the picture when you press "Print Screen/Sys Rq" key, open up Microsoft Paint, then click "Edit" on the top left corner of the options, and then click "Paste". Your picture should now appear in your Paint program, and you can edit your picture, type a caption on it, do whatever. Then click "File" and then click "Save as..." and type a name for your picture and choose where it will be saved. I recommend saving it as a .JPEG file as it is a .bmp by default.

As for photo bucket, I use a different website. Just follow the tutorial on the site if one is available. It's really straightforward after you paste your image into Paint, really.

you can also just hit prt scrn, open up paint, and hit ctrl + v after clicking in the empty box, but both will work fine

I prefer xfire or fraps to take my screenshots. Seems easier to use and upload from these programs.

its like a large force of win going through fusion, thus creating a chain reaction of a huge asplosion of win destroying any fail within its awesomeness.

Don't save the screenshot in BMP format, save it as JPEG or GIF.

Well, there are three ways I know of to get screenis.

Fraps- http://www.fraps.com/download.php This is the demo version. It allows BMP screenshots, and a 30 second video.

Xfire screenies- Just go to tools, options, chat, and set your screenshot combo. Ingame, hit your key combo, and after you exit halo, it will open up a screen with thumbnails of all your photos. You have the option to upload them, but you wont be able so send urls to people. Its easier to not upload them, go to your xfire screenshot folder in your program files folder, and select the ones you want to host on your photobucket or imageshack account.

Using the Print Screen function on halo. Merely go to your target line for either haloce, or halopc and enter -screenshot. Like this. Target: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\halo.exe" -screenshot.

K?
