Subject: Re: making screenshots

 

From my emulator, MacSpectacle, I use
File->Save and give the filename a .SCR extension. This
saves the 6912 bytes of video RAM as a raw binary
file.

Then I use a utility called SCR2GIF
[http://www.void.jump.org/utilities.html#other target=new>http://www.void.jump.org/utilities.html#other> ] to convert the .SCR file to a .GIF file, which
can be uploaded to the Yahoo! club. There's even an
option in SCR2GIF (-f) to convert flashing screenshots
to animated GIFs, but Yahoo! refuses to upload them
:-(

How do you make your screenshots, sendy? They look as
though you've captured them with a physical scanner
(perhaps a digital video camera?)
