Sundancer Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Hello screenshot posters, I have a question about the limitations on screenshots for uploading. Yesterday I took ('v') a few screenshots in my FSX, which delivered me big sized (+/- 6 MB) .BMP files. As experiment I want to upload my first shots in this subforum, but I didn't succeed. As per instructions I uploaded a shot with this Imgur tool. Unfortunately the result was an empty screen, where the picture should appear. I think that either the format (.BMP) is incorrect or the size was too big. B.t.w. uploading a small .jpg picture works fine. I can't file a Help file for this Imgur tool, therefor I am asking what the restrictions are for uploading a screenshot. Best regards Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulb Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Hi Fred, You just need to convert your files to jpg before uploading. As an alternative you can simply choose to save your screenshots as jpg in your sim. Cheers paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundancer Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 Hi Paul, Thanks for responding so fast and for your answer. I prefer your alternative solution in saving directly to jpg, but I didn't know that possibility. I will figure it out.......otherwise I will come back to you...;-) Thanks again.

Nick Cooper Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Unfortunately not possible in FSX. In P3D v4, it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundancer Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 Ah....thanks Nick for clarifying. I'll convert them first to jpg format before uploading. Best regards Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
