Morning all:

I have been posting here a lot lately, sharing stories and reading all you the posts.

I thought I'd post a few pic's from various patrols.

Thank you so much for all the wonderful mods, I think right now I'm still to focused on all the eye candy, instead of playing the game as it was meant to be.

I'll post them as soon as I learn how to do it.

Okay, they are below now.

Oh god.. bmps!

Download and install Irfanview and be happy. It's a wonderful little picture viewer program which can do things like batch conversions of file types.

The BMP files you're saving are 1MB+ in size which makes baby jeebus cry. This is sadly the default, but you can use ifranview to make them smaller. Good pics otherwise. heh :p

BMPs!! Why do you want to kill my dial up modem?

Nice pics.

When you take screenshots, it's better to hide the interface by pressing the "," key on the numpad.

I said I learned how to do it, I never said I learned it properly!

I have changed them all to Jpegs, and then reloaded, so hopefully it will be easier now. Also, are you saying that as I hit control F11 and I hold down the other key as well?

Thanks for all the tips!
