MSN SCREENSHOTS
 

Here is what you do:

1. Download Live MSN: http://get.live.com/messenger/overview

and install it (may take a while)

2. Download this:
http://www.msgpluslive.net/download/

and install

3. Get this: http://screenshotsender.com/?page=download

and it should install itself.

Now in your MSN look for the 7th icon. It is the Live Plus icon. Click on it an choose preferences. Go to Scripts and make sure ScreenShot Sender is there and if not add it.

To send a screen shot open up a conversation with someone and look for the icon with the three blocks. Click on it and you will see options. THAT EASY!


I am still figuring out all the options but let me know if you have any questions! I will ask Karah since she is the one who showed me how. LOL!

Jodie McNally showed me how a few hours ago...pretty easy!

Cool! that was easy!

Thanks Amanda! I am going to try that since I already have MSN.

OMG I'm going with this

tracireed@hotmail.com

it's so easy!!

Cool! Thanks for sharing that :)

Ok guys..when doing Screenshots with this..you send it and they have to click on a link to download it? is that right?

no- the screenshot is saved in a folder on your computer. The same as in Hello. It just does not show up on the screen.

I think that it saves it as a png. I think.

i thought i saw somewhere where you could specify what kind of file you wanted it saved as

or was that another screenshot/im program I tried? :blink:

I'm trying to figure out if I can get the screenshot feature for my Mac version

Anyone on Macs doing this?

I'll have to check it out

You can change that in preferences.

OMG! Love this! I'll be MSN now...thanks for the info...it was very easy to follow Amanda!

To dl this, do you tell it to open or save to your desktop?

Ok I just did this.... waiting for Priscilla to finish so we can try it out... Thanks Amanda!

ok - I downloaded everything :)

I looked into it, well googled... got the answer of NO.. lol.

Honestly though, I use skitch and its super quick to send screenshots. honest.

I don't know if other people had this problem, but when I try to change things in the preferences I have to hit "apply" and then "ok" - if I don't hit "apply" first, it won't save my changes.

Amanda, thank you for posting this for us! :)

i'm priscillahartman@hotmail.com

ok-- what exactly is this??:confused:

it's MSN messenger/Windows Live Messenger - it's an IM program that's been around as long as I've had internet LOL. Windows Live Messenger is just the latest version. You can download those two add-ons to enable the tabbed chat window and the screenshot capabilities.

ok LOL I know what MSN messenger is, haha just not this screenshot business... heehee:p

Okay, what the heck is skitch? :D Is this another IM, or is this something that works with msn?

OH lol - sorry - Amanda posted the links in the OP. It's just an add on to MSN messenger and then a script that goes along with that add on :)

I KNOW i saw somewhere at one point where you changed it so your images didn't save as .png and for the life of me I can't find it now. Anyone remember? I checked all through preferences, maybe I am just missing it but I don't see it. ARG!

I'm getting an error when I try to download the middle one, anyone else?

I think you have to have a conversation open and then click on the 3 little blocks and change it there in the Preferences.

I've gotten an error on the 2nd download too. :(

Don't thank me! Thank Karah!

skitch is a screenshot program for mac, does automatic screenshots and then uploads them, so you don't have to save image as a jpg etc and then upload, so i find it alot quicker that way. I use yahoo im mostly and so i just give the link to the screenshot that I uploaded. :)

I get a 404 file not found error on the second link. I get it when I try to download direct from the site as well. Looks like they are having issues at the moment

Me too.
I'm gonna keep an eye on it though and keep trying.

me three. =[

me 15....

And me as well, lol.

Same problem here...I think we broke it ladies! LOL!

Glad it's not just me. I've been refreshing over and over. Darn it.

I found this alternate download from their forums:
http://www.simtel.net/product.downlo...s.php?id=96937

What to do? MSN...Yahoo? MSN...Yahoo? Everyone seems scattered everywhere. I can't decided whether to stick with yim or go with MSN...

Here's a mirror site with the download
http://www.download3k.com/Install-Me...Plus-Live.html

Well I tried Yahoo and getting ready to try MSN to see which I prefer. Because I will have one or the other within Trillian and use the one main one for the screenshots possibly. Although I don't really need to since this Jing Project works just fine. But curiousity has me.

Ok made my decision. I got an error from the download for the MSN stuff on my Vista computer. I'm just going to have all my IMs in Trillian and use JingProject to screenshot. Keep it easy peasy. So that's my decision <giggle>

I'm sticking with Yahoo. MSN locked up my entire computer twice last night.

wouldn't it be hiliarious if we all woke up tomorrow and Hello still worked? I think we should all get on there tonight and chat till it falls down :(

Ooooo, yeah, I googled it last night and it looks pretty cool. I may have to download it and give it a try. Thanks, Kristin!

well apparently Hello WILL work until June 11!

Awesome! I'm not opening MSN or Yahoo until then then! I'm tired of thinking about it all. LOL
