Screen Shots are very easy to do but their are some stipulations
- No stealing - make them yourself, do not steal from other sites.
- put them in gif or png format, PNG for all ISOs and GIF for everything else.
- name them EXACTLY as the game name is in the rom section. But nothing after the game name, no (U) or anything like that. For sinstance "Sonic the Hedgehog 2" would be correct. And when i say Game Name I am talking about the zip or rar name, not the name of whatever is inside..
- size should be as close as u can to 300 by 225, does not have to be exact.
- However, for games with a small screen like handheld this is not a must. I am more saying do not go OVER this.
- Please no title screens, get an action screenshot.
Send them in a rar or zip HERE
One thing to note you can't have things like , ( )! - so if a game was titled "Addams
Family, The.zip, the screenshot should just be "Addams Family.gif, however a period is OK, keep that in mind, no commas but a period is fine.
Also do not spend time trying to get an exact 300/225, not needed, just so long it does not go over that limit.
For batch conversion of both size and format try the program Irfanview, I myself still use an old version as the newer one gave me problems.
The version is 3.97 if you would like that you can download it 3.97

Q & A
Should I put each screenshot in a folder?
No, each system you send me, so i know what system it is
for. Like SNES and Genesis each have their own folder with screenshots
in them.
What about a game that has many regions, should I make one
for each?
No, the 1 shot can cover them all.
MAME has different game name and file name, which should i use?
Typically they are the same but for MAME and some other arcade systems they are not. Use the file name.
