Althos keeps telling me ingame but mash is so distracting...
How do you post screenies? I got a couple funny ones...

Find a website to host images (Photobucket.com is a cool place). & then whenever you are posting, simply copy the image url provided at the website & paste it ... here ;)

Screenshots are found in the UT2004/Screenshots folder. Firstly you should use an image editing tool to convert them to .jpg, then copy the ones you want and resize them to about 800x600. Upload them to an image-sharing website, then use the img tag to embed them in the post. You can then delete the smaller resolution copies from your hard drive if you want.

Indeed! Photobucket for the win!
Boss and Shards are correct. Please do mind the screenie size...800 x 600 is the sweet spot...any smaller and stuff could be hard to see...any bigger and you'll end up having people scroll all over the place...oh...and you'll anger the Website Gods and Goddess! ;)
Be sure you post them in the appropriate forum thread...there's one for the Mash and for each of the other gametypes tool.

Everyone has MS Paint?!?!?! O.o
but yes, you can upload the images from your UT directory you don't need to edit them.. also I think Photobucket let's you edit images on there site after the upload so you don't need to download anything to do that ^^

I don't either, but all you need is Microsoft Paint to convert images from Bmp to JPG ;)

And yes, you can use Photobucket to do some minimal editing like resizing, etc.
MS Paint will do in a pinch...but if you want a program that will do more and is free, you might try GIMP.
