It has a nice effect but, you overcompressed it. You have up to 100kb so use as much as you can! Also, try using some Anti-aliasing.

Nah. Fraps automatically compresses it to be that size. Real shame too.

Anti-Aliasing is definitely needed here. Try turning it on for your Video Card (NOT in FS9).

Also, look into a program called "Irfanview". MUCH better than Fraps for taking screenshots.

Where can I find the video card options? I'm not a great person at computers.
