Taking Screen Captures
Images on the Wiki are in-game screen captures taken personally, so please no original artwork AND NO images taken from other fansites or sources.
- 1) Find what you want to take a picture of in-game.
- 2) If the game icons are in the way, Press "ctrl-g" on your keyboard to make them go away!
- 3) Press "Print Screen" on your keyboard to take the picture. (also labeled as "PrtScn")
- 4) Your Pirate101 Screen will show in Blue the name of the image you just captured.
- 5) Find your file in the "Desktop/My Documents/Pirate101" folder and open it.
- OR
- Open up a new file in Paint or any graphics program and press "ctrl-v" to paste the image into the new file.
- 6) Crop your image to a decent size (see the examples below) centering the item, but not trimming too closely that edges are removed.
- Please don't cut-out the images without a background, they don't look great on the wiki.
- 7) FILE TYPES: All static images on the Wiki are .png files, so please save your image as a .png BEFORE you try to upload it.
- To convert other file types to .png format open the image in a graphics editor such as Paint, click File > Save As, and select PNG as the type.

If ever needed, you can manually include a file in a page by using a link in one of the following forms:
- [[File:File.jpg]] to use the full version of the file
- [[File:File.png|200px|thumb|left|caption]] to use a 200 pixel wide rendition in a box in the left margin with a caption
- [[Media:File.ogg]] for directly linking to the file without displaying the file
- For Manual uploads, visit Special:Upload.
