“AMD Juniper” - Not bad.

Thank you for testing the RC2!

Indications are that the latest RC is working here, too.

What I would like to know is how you and Skateman manage screenshots that are big enough as is. I thought maybe they were jpegs, so I looked for but failed to find conversion software. But rechecking I see that Skateman's are jpeg (except his .png Big Picture) but yours are decent size .pngs.jpeg screenshots. I thought there might be conversion software, but I can't find any, and the screenshooter doesn't offer options.

I don’t use a converter software. Thanks a lot for testing the RC2!

I don’t use a converter software.

But you manage to get an image on the order of 280KB and 640x480. How come I can't do better than 45KB and 250x141?
Actually, my screenshots are are like 250~300KB and 1920x1080 on my Desktop. Apparently Hyperion shrinks them down to smaller than reasonable size.

I take a screenshot... using the printscreen button... and then resize to 1024 x (...) keeping the aspect ratio using the Gimp. (Available on all PPC distros)

Then i place them on my webserver and use link.
