Hallo all,
Not had much chance to play with the free cam or take much in the way of screenshots recently.
So, here is a funny I posted a while back in a thread that seemingly had no views;

Yeah! I really do not like that meme!
There are some great shots in these threads.
The thing is, some of us (me included) seem to end up with badly lit shots. Bad lighting can result from a lot of things but we can combat it sometimes.
To avoid bad lighting, I try to;
Not have a bright light directly behind subject
Not have a very bright light too close to front of subject
Not aim camera directly at a bright light
Turn my character into good lighting
Make good use of character items such as torch or spells that cast light and such if available
On PC;
Make use of the 'tfc' feature to move the camera accordingly to avoid bad lighting - see begining of this thread
I realise we are not all super smart when it comes to using art packages on PC (points at self as example of dimness) and we do not all have access to professional software - this has its problems.
If you are using a PC, there are some free to download image manipulating programs available - your search engine is your friend! Free software can be very basic but that is all we need. A little time taken to learn the basics of such free programs can pay off really well and bring our screenshots [more] to life.

I would hope that the suggestions above are seen as positive and that nobody takes offence at them - like I said, some great shots by everyone so far.
Eisoj5, If I may be so bold, I would like to offer up a suggestion regards your 'how to' list; so long as it is in line with forum guidelines, you could add a note about screenshot lighting and another regarding free image manipulation software - no need to name any names though. I think that this would be very constructive.
(EDITED: I am like a prooly trained or inexperienced wizzard! I can not spell to save my live (chuckle))
