There is currently no way to take screenshots using the 360 version, unless you do it with some kind of video capturing or a digital camera.

Got a digital camera?

I actually have both. My video capture card isn't all that great though. I love my digital camera though. I'll nab my regular connectors and do a little capture test to see if what I grab is any better, later on.

Still, what I've done, like during get-togethers, is offer to take people's pictures so I can put them online and they can grab them. A general service to those who can't capture themselves.

Do you think you'd mind trying that for me? I have a digital camera but my pics always turn out fuzzy and I want to make a banner with my actuall character rather then a character pic i found that looks a lot like her.

Someone tried taking a pic for me last week for my b-day ... but that didnt turn out any better ... I guess both our cameras are cheepos lol ^_^

Oh! Making a character pic good enough for a banner? Well, yep I can make those easy. I've gotten better with my picture taking as I've gotten more experience with how far I can hold the camera, from the screen, and what kind of lighting I need, in the room. Within the next night or two, I'll test out the input card and see if that's even better. I want to have everything set up before our next meet.

You are very welcome. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

I think my I'll add in a digital camera on my list for christmas. Whenever we have meetups I want to help out in snapping pictures for people.

Also, I need me a digital camera anyways. It takes me a year to devolope pictures..>.>

Trust me on this one, don't go lower than 5 Megapixels. The camera I have, is my first decent one. The cameras with lower numbers generally sacrifice too much quality for the price. Five is the area where things get good, and it only gets better as you get higher. Of course, over 5 you start to see prices hike a bit unreasonably; but real good shopping might land a great deal, at that level.

Unless you're in a hurry to have one, you might take advantage of the post-christmas shopping, on that one. A time when the stores are strapped to try to get those cameras out of there.

The idiocy of "can't take screenshots on the 360 version" is still STARTLING to me, especially due to all the "Windows Media Connection" crap that Microsoft spent so much time (more than they bothered spending on the backwards-compatablilty, that's for damned sure) putting in the machine.

Sega's just got lazy again, that's the bottom line of the whole thing.

HURRAY! I need to play around with taking pics of my character ... my digital camera is 6 mega pixels and my tv is a 30 inch 16x9 flat screen HD so there really shouldnt be a problem with getting a good pic ... ill have to get you to give me a few pointers if we ever meet for crazy pics ^_^
