Somewhere along the lines a person will ask how to take a screen shot, host it, and re-size it. This is a very basic guide on "How to take a screenshot."

1. Press the 'Print Screen/Sys Rq' button. This will take a snap shot of whatever you're currently on.

2. Go to paint. (Start>All Programs>Accessories>Paint). Then click paste to paste the screen shot you just currently took. After you've pasted the image remove any 'white space'. Then save it to a file you can remember it in.

3. Search "Image shack, Photo Bucket, Tiny Pic," in any search bar and go to the link. Click 'Browse' and find your picture and then press 'Okay.' Resize it if it's too big. Some pictures resize automatically. Then click 'Host it!'

4. Copy the <Http://> under 'show image to freinds.'

5. After you've copied it and want to put it in a post click the 'Image' tab. Type Normal (By Deafult), then press okay. Then Paste the <Http://> and press okay.

you could just press F5 to take the screenshot then go find it in the cstrike folder.

You mean screenshots in game, though. I meant taking a screen shot whenever. Also, pressing F5 in the game will just save the file under that section, it wont host it, it wont resize it. That would just be for your personal view.

no date for me on pic but I imagine that if there is a date its most likely to date when the image was taken "timestamp"
