Screenshot suggestion
I cant remember if this was said somewhere, my searches couldnt' find anything, so ill ask...

Would it be possible to bind a key, so that when you press this key, your hud quickly disapeers, then a screenshot is taken, then the hud reappears? So you can take a shot of whats directly in front of you... without the hud. This would be great for making some truely sweet screenshots.

Basically it involves the usage of whatever code makes the hud disapeer in other views aside from the front.

This should be made optional, because if some one has made a new HUD and want's to show it, they can't because the hud disapears when he/she takes the screenshot.

Yes, unbind the screenshot key, or just use the Print Screen key like you usually do.

how about making the hud itself toggleable?

I thought it was? Or can't you turn down it's brightness of something using the options screen?
