When i press Prnt Screen, the TGA shows up in the TGA folder, when i open the pic it opens with photoshop and i can't upload to photobucket., help please?

So far i have played 3 turns i built traders and roads in both settlements, and i moved a family member and 5 horse archers towards Pontus, we are currentl making 700 a turn but that will be changed.

I feel the same way I did after playing Stronghold 2 for about 15 minutes, like it was my birthday and all my friends had wheeled a giant birthday cake into the room, and I was filled with hopes dreams and desires when suddenly out of the cake pops out not a beautiful buxom maid, but a cranky old hobo that just shanks me then takes $60 dollars out of my pocket and walks away saying "deal, with it".

you must convert them to JPEG's. TGA's are too large to be uploaded and/or photobucket doesn't support them.

Yep, it's true, having no sig is boring. But so is this one. Which makes my point... relatively pointless.
Can a point be a point when it is pointless?

you should be able to do that with photoshop, i don't know how (i don't have it myself) but i think it is that when you save, you should use the bar under the bar where you can gice a name to the file, there you can select JPEG, BMP and such.

Simply open them in any compatible program (Nero Photosnap Viewer is nice and quick) and save as JPEG.

That hurts. Sorry to hear that stormer. Do you think you will be able to play again any time soon?

In light of this, KeithLB, the swap goes to you. Please start a game with the settings above and play for three days. Let us know when you start, and I will update the OP with the days you have it.

Sub, I think your swift start has made the gods angry...

You can't say that civilization don't advance, however, for in every war they kill you in a new way.

Chauvinism is not a particularly nice trait at the best of times but can be suicidal when the person your talking too can have you executed on a whim.

Facebook, anyone?

Update

*intro music plays*

I have eliminated Pontus and driven the Parthians from the Caspian Sea. We are currently at war with the Parthians, and the Greeks. We have a full stack in Greece, and the settalments of Larrisa and Thermon. Dang, those Horse-archers are good. You've won another convert Subrosa. I have been able to defeat the Greeks simply because my HAs are the only unit i have that can beat their Hoplites.

How many units of hillmen and eastern infantry and light horse archers do you have?

From my experience, make armies full of them and you can't go wrong against most other factions with Armenia.

And as a completely irrelevant side-note:

Quoted from Imps sig:
92% of forumers have taken to copying other people's signatures. If you are of the 8% who still have at least mild originality, copy and paste this into your surname.

Heh, it worked! By copy-and-pasting it it means you're not original. It's why I took it out of my sig

Anyway, try and gain ground on the Seleucids if you have time, if not secure the mountain lands you hold. If anyone attacks from the south they'll be vital.

I know but fertile Mesopotamia would be able to flank the conflict in the Holy Land, and earn some cash if well-defended. To defend all you need is loads of hillmen and eastern infantry, remember, they can hold their own in cities, especially against the chariots of Egypt and Seleucid cavalry.

Anyway, let's hope impspy has some progress to report. Oh, and I can't join this after all

I'm going to be in the Phillipines for a while.

The Greek City states and the Parthians have gone the way of the dinosars. Egypt is breathing down our necks, so squash, you are gonna have a heck of a time dealing with them. on the bright side we are genarating 15,000 a turn.
