the black screen shot issue usually happens with nvidia video cards. the solution is to disable antialyasing in rtw and enable it via the nvidia control panel and set it to override game settings. you can even set it up to x16

I have a Nvidia Geforce on my PC and laptop, never had black screen problems.

it doesnt always happen but when it does it seems to always involve an nvidia card and not using an outside app like FRAPS to take the screen shot

I don't know how long GIMP takes to start up, but if it's anything like photoshop, it's a bit too long if you're only going to change a file to something else.

You can use Irfanview to open them up as well, and it's basically a replacement for MS Paint.

it takes less than a minute; usually round 10-20 sec. I have a registry mess atm, due to virus*, and a heavy workload (I'm writing up an inventory of dinosaurs, taking info from www.dinodata.org , and archive files of www.jpinstitute.com** .), so it takes round 30 sec.

in case anyone's wondering, I'm collecting dinosaur information so as to write a future paper on dinosaur distribution.
