Hi guys. I spent a lot of time trying to get this to work so I thought I would share it with anyone else having trouble importing SH3 screenshots to MoBo. You basically need to disable Desktop Composition for the SH3 application. Follow the instructions in this link and it works perfectly.

Note: For Steam users, you need to go to the application file itself at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Silent Hunter 3 (or similar) and make the change. Simply doing it for the Steam application doesn't work.
