Subject: Re: making screenshots
"How do you make your screenshots, sendy? They
look as though you've captured them with a physical
scanner (perhaps a digital video camera?)"
no,
although it certainly looks like it :). the emu i use to
play my games (usually) is zx32 which, when in
fullscreen mode, does a lovely 'old telly' simulation (note
the black lines across the picture and the rounded
corners - beautiful!). this was grabbed with a screen
grabber program and saved as a jpeg (zx32 does not save
any form of screenshot data). the thing with jpegs is
that they come out all blotchy sometimes, and gives it
a physical kind of feel (unless you turn the
quality right up, in which case they take up zillions of
memory).
i'm just off to upload some new, compact screenshots
for willy's big adventure (including some new
screens) as well as the utility cubicles
project.
