Quote:Well, in Vista or Win 7, before I found out about the Snipping Tool - I also read on these boards about how to get the print-screen shots from the Tailor or Char Creator to come through.Originally Posted by Red Valkyrja
I love the Snipping Tool (ST), but I have found that it can be flaky saving the image in the ST, so I will past the image ST took into Paint or some other program and save it there for editing later.
The trick is to open some image editing program first, then go into CoH, then alt-tab back to the Image App (like MSPaintbrush) and drag it down or to the side, just so that its still showing on screen (and thus still has focus) yet it isn't covering up the part of the COH screen you want (like, say, your character)
and then, hit print-screen - while the image app still has "focus" - then drag it back up into view and Paste (either Cntrl-C or pull down its edit menu) and save it as normal for that application.
Its a little more tedious than the Snipping Tool, but if the Snipping Tool isn't happening for you - this other method worked fine for me. -
Also - check out this thread on the use of Windows "Snipping Tool":

Well, those things don't bug me so much..
..but I did notice that now, if the description text is vast, they only show a little and then stick a need-to-click "More" under it. THAT I don't like.

Combo "bump" and rant!
WTF!...ARGH....so Dick Blick art store shutdown after years of being here and basically merged all their stuff into a mega DB store about 45 minutes away in another city. I didn't really care when that happened last year (lols), but I just now realized none of the other art stores in town carry the art pens I use! BOO!
After 2 hours driving around town hitting all the other art stores, I realize I should've just checked online. *I blame using cold medicine for the last 2 weeks on not thinking of this sooner*
Anyways, I got my pens on order but my FArt this month may be slackin' on the final touches. Meh...

Ha! Very clever! Well done!

I just saw over on DeviantArt that someone created a group as a Tribute To Frank's Art
"#barbarians-for-frank"
http://barbarians-for-frank.deviantart.com/
Looks like they're getting people to contribute a Barbarians -

As if Frazetta wasn't bad enough, Ronnie James Dio has also shrugged off this mortal coil.The man may have passed on, but his work, his legacy lives on.Quote:Originally Posted by Wassy
I still refuse to believe that Dio is gone. It just doesn't seem possible. Metal gods don't die... they throw the horns and **** off!
I, personally, really only liked the stuff he did with Rainbow - but I recognize his talent in all the stuff he did. He's one of the old school heavy rock/metal vocalists who could actually sing.
R.I.P. Mr. Dio -
Happy Brithday Amerikatt!
..may your Day of Brith be full of wonderous joy!
..yes, Brith!

awww, dang. He was THE man. I had two of those nice Frazetta art books when I was in high school.
He was one of the big inspirations for why I try to be an artist.
RIP Mr. Frazetta. You will be missed, but we will NOT forget you or your legacy! -
Cute and funny! Great comics there, Jorden!

Happy Mother's Day, Mom - I miss you
Here's to the Moms who have passed, but will be forever in our hearts. -
six of one, half-a-dozen of the other.

Man, LD! Those're beautiful! I really love your painted grayscale comps! I'm torn between the dark & the light color versions - they each appeal to me in different ways. I like the shadows in the darker one, and the couple somehow feels ..richer. But the lighter one does bring out their faces more. I'm sure whichever one you choose will come out really well.
..and it sounds like you're getting good stuff outta the class!! -

Just in case some of you were thinking of me as strictly a COH crossdresser: Shadowshot!
Pencil sketch by the awesome Noel Rodriguez. You can visit the artist on dA by clicking the image above to visit my page. I have a link there.
I love what he did here even if the costume details are a little unclear. I'll probably be in the market for inks and colors in the coming weeks.

Hey LD! I'm envious of your great idea! (heh heh)
Here's my suggestion: how about, instead of the "happy" Arachnos agent being accompanied by ...only ONE hot chick, maybe have him accompanied by THREE or Four! -
Happy Birthday Thor's Assassin! (did I make it in before the day passed?)

Quote:..erm, oh.. YES! You fell for it! My ..ah ..Master-Pun Plan! YEARS in the planning! Subtly influencing game programmers into creating this very game.. umm.. Just so that I could create this particular forum ID! Then, to sit, innocently waiting to ... um.. SPRING! this very, terribly clever, multi-layered pun on YOU!Originally Posted by Deebs
drat I thought it was a great pun too as it worked off your forum handle and late birthday greetings :P just fib to me and let me think you had it all planned out like that
Vindication! Triumph! The culmination of a life-time!
Muwahahahaha!
(how wuz that?

I wuz really just going for the "Alice In Wonderland" ref.

Quote:Ah, well that does sound like an expiring video cardOriginally Posted by Amerikatt
((I think that my vid card is going bad. I jagged lines across my monitor, and it's growing increasingly difficult to read what's on-screen. In addition, I am no longer able to get into the game, but get a message saying that I have an unsupported vid card -- despite the fact that I was able to play CoH as recently as Monday night and did so in Ultra mode.] Very NU-fun when that happens. Hope you can get a reliable replacement soon, and return! In the meantime, be sure to enjoy the time away! Run around and play in the real sun. We'll expect a nicely tanned AmeriKatt when you return! (..do cats tan? )

...and do let me know when you get back! Cheers!

Be sure to have some mind-refreshing fun while you're away!

Quote:I noticed that Sapphic_Neko also mentioned the European forum artist group(s??) that are now gone ..Originally Posted by RedFire
I have many memories of the arts on the French forum, including "Rooftop" a collective of artists now disappeared.
This makes me kind of sad! I take it there was a consolidation of the forums and the European Art community didn't make the transition? I'd dig having artists from across the pond in here! -

Feral TomKat ought to be smiling.
For just a moment there, I saw this as somehow having a GIANT "Feral TomKat" standing there! "how the heck they do THAT?" ..in fact, thats how I'm going to remember this pic!
