If you want to show a picture or screenshot you will need to upload them to a third party host and link or include the image in your post.
Some of the more popular online storage websites for images are:
- Dropbox – http://www.dropbox.com
- ImageShack – http://imageshack.us/
- PhotoBucket – http://photobucket.com/
There are many others aswell.
After you've uploaded your image to an online source, simply insert the url to the online file in your post.

Full screen Media Center screenshots
By default, Windows Media Center screenshots can only be made in windowed mode. There is a registry trick though to enable fullscreen screenshots:
- Start the Registry Editor (start > type “regedit” in the search box)
- Navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media Center\Service\Video - Create a new (32-bit) DWORD Value called “
EnablePrintScreen” and set it’s value to “1”

You can now create screenshots in fullscreen mode using ALT+PRINTSCREEN.
