how do u take pictures of items??

hello everyone.... i have been trying to take pictures of my items but instead it clears everything and only takes picture of where i am and nothing else

cant i take a picture of the items i have so i can price check them?

plz tell me how someone

You absolutely can!

You can hit the Print Screen key while you mouse-over the item, so that the item stats are displayed. This will put a screenshot in the clipboard, and also save a bitmap image to your Guild Wars/Screen Shots directory.

You can then use Paintbrush or something to edit/crop the image and save it as a JPEG or something.

it wont show the items when i hit the print screen key when my mouse is over the item... kinda odd

maybe it will show it in the clipboard? where can i find the clipboard on my pc?? i have no idea

Hitting "printscreen" while you have the item's information shown will take a picture of your screen. Go to your Guild Wars folder and find the "Screens" folder within it. It will have all the screenshots you've taken in it. Open your screen of choice up in MS paint and use the cropping tool to isolate the item's information.

Make sure you aren't hitting shift + printscreen when you take screenshots, as that will clear your HUD, just printscreen will do. Also, when you take the screenshot, it should give the a message something like "screenshot saved as C:/Program Files/Guild Wars/Screens/screen1.bmp

ok i tried that but still it takes the picture and shows it in the screen folder...but all the stuff like the skills and party info.
is missing

nope i checked and not holding shift... but i checked in the screens and i do have one that has all the stuff but i have no idea how i got it to show it....do i have to activate or de-activate something?

Hmm, that could be a bug, then. Or maybe some kind of incompatibility with your graphics card.

Print Screen will present different results depending on the keys used.

Print Screen
Alt-Print Screen
Shift-Print Screen
Ctrl-Print Screen

Each of these will produce a different image.

yay!

thank you thats what i needed

it works for me with the ctrl+print now
