I just use a desktop shortcut to the screenshots folder.

Find the screenshots folder, right click on it and select 'create shortcut'. Then place the shortcut onto the desktop. Quickest way.

ive been using the steam screenshots (hurr steamshots) for my map pics. upload them online using the thingy, get a direct link to them real fast

that looks much better as a final point SirRaffi, but of course itll be easier to say for sure in an actual game. might make it too easy for the defenders to rain fire down on the point, but hey, final points shouldnt be easy

what do i do to post it after that?

Upload it to some image service. Dropbox is used a lot around here. Min.us is a TF2Maps sponsor, so it's cool to use them too. Photobucket and Imageshack are taboo. Babies eat kittens each time you use them.

Thanks. Of course there will be some revision over time.

And what's wrong with Photobucket? I use it all the time with no problems whatsoever.

It's a piece of shit

Covered in ads, compresses your images, can be difficult to get a link directly to the image, images degrade in quality over time, they might delete your images randomly or kill your account for an infraction of their labyrinthine TOS

Just use Imgur, and if you want a history, make an account. Or Dropbox. Or pay for hosting.

Don't forget min.us which is also really nice.

Picoodle is also an option, which was suggested to me somwhere in these forums.

I completely disagree (except for the bit about the ads).

I've never had images compressed, and I've never had problems getting a direct link to the image. And the old images I posted are still at the same quality as they were when I first uploaded them, and have not been deleted. I've never even read the ToS and I still have an account to this day.

Still, each to their own, I suppose.

You submit them to valve, and they look at it. If they like it, they might put it into the game.
