It's not much of an excuse for a website, but my stuff can be found here

You'll find them in your Freespace2 folder afterwards :D

Hmmm I think this one should be in the FAQ :D

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

If you're using the SCP press pause then Tab and the Hud etc. will dissapear.  Do it again to reverse the process.

It's probably important to note that both the format and location changes when you print screen in OGL.  They save then as TGA's and go to the mod directory you're currently running from, whereas in D3D all screenshot saves go to FS2 root.

...or simply press Shift-O

So that's where those screenshots (and 200mb worth of disk space) went.

SCP staff didn't even know that? :wtf:

I have always found it strange though, since one of the tennents of having both options is that they are supposed to behave the same other than the actual rendering process.  And somehow I doubt the difference is intentional.
