I finally have a system that takes decent screen shots. I bought a MacBook Pro with the duo proccessor and am loving it. I have always build my own systems so this is a real treat for me.

Now that the shots are absolutely gorgeous I decided to start taking pics of all my properties. I love to design and decorate each home a little different then the next. I have been posting them up on my website and now it's time to share.

Does your character that is taking those pictures have a red-light source on them? There seems to be a lot of red in htose pictures.

Otherwise cool. What do you mean by "takes decent screen shots" tho? So long as I turn up the quality I get rather good jpg screenies.

My main system has an ATI All in Wonder 9800 graphic card. I could never find anyone who could help me with an issue I had with how it took screenshots. It always had horizontal lines running through it. I visisted board after board and tried numerous suggested solutions that never solved the issue.

The computer I used as my secondary would lag so bad when I cranked up the graphics it would take forever just take one shot and then reposition for another shot. Many times the system would just crash or appear to have crashed. The laptop runs very smoothly with the graphics cranked up high. Of course there are times that I need to crank them down though. Anytime I am in QH, in the bank with everyone on their horses and rugs, or in a group when we are doing massive spell damage.

I will check into the red issue though. I just turned up all of the natural lighting and all the torches so maybe somewhere there is a red issue. Thanks for the tip.

What I was thinking of was if there was maybe like a Tish Ticker's red lamp on the character that gives off red light. And I see what you mean... I dislike ATI, whom I've had past problems with, but I've never had a problem with nVidia that updated drivers didn't solve.
