Right i'm wondering is there a way to take screen shots in FSX (internally) without the BMP -> JPG blurriness??? This seems to be one failing of mine in my setup. what i have to do is open the picture in paint and save as JPG however this tends to loose some nice detail and creates a image rather like loosing your glasses. Does anyone have a solution except from running an external program? (my pc struggles enough with FSX to worry about other programs running at the same time!!)
Take the shots first by pressing the V key. This is an internal FSX feature so no other software is necessary. You can take as many shots as you wish during a session & the images will be automatically saved in high quality BMP format.*
Then after you've finished with FSX open the images you wish to post in a separate graphics editor for resizing & saving in JPEG format. You might find my resizing tutes helpful. Reply #2 here --->

For WinXP look in C:\Documents and Settings\<--User Name-->\My Documents\My Pictures\Flight Simulator X Files
In Vista/Win7 it's C:\Users\<--User Name-->\Pictures\Flight Simulator X Files
