Just use the in-game screenshot system. In other words: Press "print screen". Files will then get saves as JPG by default under "\TS12\UserData\screenshots".
Or you could keep using your current way of getting screenies and just convert them to JPG via MS Paint or any other simple tool.
Any half-decent host supports JPG.
 
I finaly made it to the northwestern end of the layout:
Here is a map veiw of the entire route, after I scenery up the line to Bear creek ill be working even more in depth on the layout.

I like what you're doing here quite a lot, and I'm definitely looking forward to downloading the route when you release it. One thing that does strike me, though, is a certain lack of depth to the scenes. BC is mostly mountainous country, but what you've built here looks more like rolling prairie with conifers. Where are the *mountains*? Please don't take this as disrespectful, I'm offering it in the spirit of constructive criticism. I think perhaps what you need to do is put another tile or two worth of scenery on either side of the track, to give the scenes more depth, though I realize that means a huge increase in your workload. :( Of course, it could just be that I've been spoiled by drooling over the magnificent screenies Roy and Ning have been posting ... :) Anyway, that's my two cents. Take it for what you will, and keep up the good work! :Y:
