    Hi folks, I'm back with another daft question!

    I'm taking lots of screenshots and now I'd like to share them with a few friends to get them interested in the game.... except I can't find them now.

    Can anyone give me and example file name to search for - or just tell me what directory they whizz off to?

    Many thanks.....

    On my computer I found mine on the drive where the game is installed, under Portalarium, and then in Shroud of the Avatar folder.

    Here is an example file name -> SotA_08-12-16_17-58_1.png
    The directory depends of the os and the client (Steam or not) you use.

    Here is an example for Windows and Steam -> c:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\SotA\
    And here is an example for Windows without Steam -> c:\Apps\glib\Shroud of the Avatar\ (just the installation folder of SotA)

    Hope this helps ;-)

    I always use the print screen key, and paste into my paint shop pro program. that way I can edit if I need to.
