    Can I take a screenshot by pressing a hot key, then press another one straight away and it'll save both? I mean that pressing print screen twice and then pressing again...second will overwrite first, does this happen with fraps?

    Hotkeys are customizable and single keys : simply answer is yes. I guess it takes series of screenshots - a new one every time you press the hotkey.

    I use fraps to take screenies of my EB campaign. Unfounately, the size is too big for any of the uploaders I know. Any help?



    If I was smart, I would have a witty punchline in this sig that would make everyone ROTFL.

    Convert into JPEG's. FRAPS -though I guess it to be so- must be taking BMP's when you take a screenshot. This is more preferable since Bitmaps are the absolutely the "mirror images" of the pixels shown on the screen, hence needing no compression after capturing the image.

    Lead your way to Irfanview.com and download IrfanView. Open the BMP file (if so) in IrfanView then File > Save As... And change the saving format from the dropdown menu box to JPG, maximize the quality from the slider bar in the window on the right that appears right after you choose JPG format. And save your file, voila, you have a much smaller file.

    You may try PNG format for a blend of compression/quality as well as a saving format.
