Instructions to take pictures in WoW
First,
you have to see in your screen what you want to show in the
picture. Use the mousewheel to zoom in-out, for example.
In the Interface menu, there are options that will allow you
to hide the names above characters, both NPCs and players.
To
hide your user interface, press Alt+Z (and same, to
show it again).
To
take the screenshot, press the "Print Screen"
key in your keyboard (it's usually the first key after the
function ones -F1 to F12- in the upper row).
Now
the screenshot is stored in your PC, but to use it, you'll
have to "paste" it in any image editing application
(for example, Microsoft Paint -for Windows users-).
To
do this, press Alt+TAB to show your computer desktop,
open the image editing application, and then press Ctr+V,
this will put your screenshot on it.
Done!
Now you can save the picture as you would do with any other
one.
