GonzoAttacker Posted September 15, 2000 Share Posted September 15, 2000 I have a couple of buddies that want to send me screenshots? is there a way for MAC users or PC users to convert files that would be readable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karch Posted September 15, 2000 Share Posted September 15, 2000 I think the best way to take screen shots on the Mac is using Snapz Pro 2 software by Andromeda Software http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/Products/SnapzPro.html You can specify what format you want the capture saved as, jpeg is one. You can even capture quicktime movies from the screen. The other option I just tried was taking a screen shot and then opening it with the quictime picture viewer and exporting it as a jpg. You probably need QT Pro for that. And if that fails, Graphic Converter http://www.graphicconverter.net/us_gcdownload.html It is a fantastic bitmap converter. Be sure to label cross platform files with the correct 3 letter extension for windows users to view them easily. JPEG is .jpg and TIFF files get shortened to .tif [This message has been edited by karch (edited 09-15-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aikidorat Posted September 16, 2000 Share Posted September 16, 2000 I currently take the built in snap shot (PICT) and use GC to convert it. not to plug GC again, but it's a great shareware program. Use it all the time. dave ------------------ History is made at night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aikidorat Posted September 17, 2000 Share Posted September 17, 2000 just downloaded Snapz Pro 2 to use for creating a readme for MCM3. It is a great program. thanks for mentioning it. much more powerful than the normal way. dave ------------------ History is made at night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
