How do I set what file type screenshots come out as? Right now they get saved as tga, which photobucket won't accept. Also how do I change type of existing screenshots?

I use I-fun viewer for this but any photo software can do it. Just load up the photo and change it by using the 'save as' option and switch it to jpg.

I use Irfan view. Make sure in your NWN you have a folder named screenshots. It works like a camera just hit the print screen. Then do as Sun suggests, open the file ,edit and set it as jpg. I have a seperate folder to put screens for posting.

Also a hint for those who do not know, If you do not want writing,maps etc in your shots, prior to snapping hit the "H" key which leaves only the image.

I use photoshop and save them as .png.

I have not tried photoshop. I chose irfan view because you can hit print screen and it records images without you having to stop game play. Png. or Jpg. work

FYI - jpg is a lossy format, that means actual image data is lost when saving the tga as jpg. I also recommend png since it is a lossless format and does not temper with image data but uses compression algorithms instead. For more options manipulating images try GIMP (http://www.gimp.org/) - it offers Photoshop equal tools but is open source and free.

.png is great. But if I recall there are 'cleaner' formats than that right?

Nope, png is open, clean and IMHO the very best choice.

It's also the most fun to say.
