Sally how do you take a screen shot and put it in the correct file? =) Thanks.
If you’re using a PC, press ALT and PRINT SCREEN on your keyboard, then open Paint and paste. You can then save it as a JPG. (You may need to resize the image — please check the help file for instructions.) If you’re using a Mac, press Command, Shift and the number 4, and then drag to select the area you want to take a picture of. It will save to your desktop as a PNG. You will need to open it and save it as a JPG.
um, Sally, why won’t it let me enter? I keep submitting it but it keeps going back to the same page… please help!
Is there any red text at the top of the screen after you enter? It will also sometimes do that if you don’t upload the correct file format — it can only be a JPG or a GIF.
No, there wasn’t any text at the top of the screen… and I used my laptop…
What file format is your image? If it’s a PNG or BMP, it will not work, and it won’t give you an error message.
What is a JPG and GIF?
I’m not sure which one it was because I don’t know what those are…
But it probably is one of the two you said last because it wouldn’t let me enter but it did not give me a message…
They are file formats that pictures can be saved as. You’ll need to open your picture in an editing program like paint, and try to save it as a different format.
Ok:) thank you:) I will try that:) I used a program to crop off the adds on the side of my screen shot so that is probably why it did that… thank you for helping me!
I have a question. If you win, can you give the code to a friend?
C’mon, anyone know?
probably
Hey penguinlove1! You are aloud to give the code to a friend if you want:)
Just entered!! For my entry, I took the Crystal Falls furniture piece from the building sets and expanded the concept into an entire room! ;)
I don’t know how to get my file smaller!!
Trim/crop it as much as possible, then save it as JPG (keep your original and do “Save As” instead of “Save”!) I ran into this a number of times before figuring out I was saving it as a file type that had better detail but was bigger.
How do I get my photos to be jpg or png style? I only have a Microsoft office word for painting pictures of my rooms.
Hey Milkyrose4362! If you’re on windows you may have the snipping tool on your computer its like taking a screenshot and its super easy it saves in jpg i think.
But I do not have one. Plus, my server is an Windows XP……
I use Paint when I do mine.
Hiya1 , I wondered how to do that! Now I know how to save it smaller!
hi milkyrose! with the cheer pup room design i had the same problem as you! i am on a windows laptop too so when i saved my screenshot i saved it as (whatever you are saving it as).jpg hope it helps! good luck in the contest! :)
Thx Choco55. (nicknaming u that!) Maybe I’ll find a how to guide to do something like that
ok good luck! (i am NOT being sarcastic just in case it sounded like it.) :)
While in the room you want to use for the contest, press “END”, also labeled as “PRTSC”. Then, go into Paint and click “Paste”. You can then crop the picture to only show your Webkinz launcher and save it as a .JPG/.JPEG . I wish you luck on the contest!
For the “END/PRTSC” part, I was talking about on your keyboard. Sorry for any confusion!
