Hm...is there a program in the game that lets you take screen shots....or do you just use a camera and take a shot at your computer screen??

Just use a camera and take a shot at your computer screen.

Or

You can just hit PrintScreen to take a pic of your screen including GUI. Hold control shift and printscreen for no GUI. All pictures get saved in the GuildWars Screenshots forum on your computer.

I suggest the bottom one .

Press the "Print Screen" key on your keyboard to take screenshots

They'll get saved to a "Screns" directory in your Guild Wars directory.. ie

if you installed GW to C:\Games\Guild Wars

then when you press "Print Screen" you will have a .bmp image file saved to :

c:\Games\Guild Wars\Screens

if you want a nice scenery or portrait image without your hud being in the way press shift+ctrl+h to clear your hud and press again to bring it back.

Yup.
Printscreen is two buttons above delete .
Also, make sure its the right control and the right shift. Directional, not like right or wrong .

Chris stop breaking people's minds . You just need to press Shift + PrintScrn , and either Shift will do.


Still doesn't work?
Go to Options --> Control Setup , Scroll down til you find 'Screenshot', then make sure it's bound to a key.
