Although I just simply grab a screenie using the "V"key, then open with Paint and save the .bmp screenie as a .jpeg.....BUT (isn't there always a 'but' ;)).....here's an excellent tutorial on the matter:http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1268768093

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the recommendation U4EA. Paint.NET is a popular graphics editor. You might also like to check out my resizing tutes using other free software. Reply #2 here ---> http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1289831860

Just to add that every time you press the default V key in FSX your shots will be automatically saved to this location:

WinXP C:\Documents and Settings\\My Documents\My Pictures\Flight Simulator X Files

Vista/Win7 C:\Users\\Pictures\Microsoft Flight Simulator X Files
