First you need to take the screenshots, here's how:
In
ZeroEditor:
- Press the prt scr button on your keyboard
then open MS Paint or any image editor and paste it (ctrl+v)
Then save as jpg and upload it to an image host like Imgur
In game:
- Press the prt scr button on your keyboard
then go to:
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\ScreenShots
if using Steam:
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\ScreenShots
then convert the tga (targa) images to jpg and upload it to an image host like Imgur.
NOTE -If for some reason you don't have a ScreenShots folder with your images then just use the ZeroEditor method for taking screenshots.
Once your image has been uploaded all that's left to do is copy (ctrl+c) the
url of the image and paste (ctrl+v) it between
img tags in your post, example:
There are many image editors that you can use to convert tga images to another image format but
GIMP is an excellent free image editing application.

I think xnview is also a good program to use for converting the TGAs to JPG or whatever format.
Also, if you don't want to make an account,
http://www.imageshack.us/ is a good site to upload screenies

Well, the 'worst' is that we've seen people who doesn't know how to upload nor anything alike.
So I'll add this to the Everything You Need Thread so there's no excuses anymore

The best program for converting pictures (especially in batches, with rename and resize options and all) is Irfanview.

The Site Rules wrote:
Don't Resurrect Old Topics
This one is important, but is defined by the following:
* A topic that is older than 30 days
The exception to this rule would be if you have useful information to add to an old topic, or if a sticky topic points to the thread you're resurrecting.
But to answer your question, hold down the Print Screen button on your keyboard for two seconds. When you exit the game the screenshots will appear in the /Star Wars Battlefront II/Screenshots folder. If you have more questions about this, please make a new topic in the SWBF2 General forum.
