    I was just wondering how do we take snap shots in the city? I looked and looked and even asked the question but nothing came up so i am hoping one of the players might know.

    You need to be registered with an online image hosting site (I use photobucket).

    Press Print-Screen to copy the screenshot, then open Paint (sometimes known as paintbox) and paste (Ctrl-V) it into there. You can edit it in Paint to be a sensible size then upload it to your host. That will give you a link to put into a forum thread.

    Hope this helps.

    If your using Windows 7/8 there's a little known tool called the "Snipping Tool". Click on start and type "snipping tool" into the search box. You then have the option to just take a partial screen shot or the whole screen. It also automatically copies the image to the clipboard, or you can save it somewhere (or as nervo suggested, a hosting site that allows linking) so you can post it here. One big failing of this forum that you can't directly post screen shots etc. but you can't have everything for nothing! :D
