Gents how do you do that? When I try an save the image appears as a png which I cannot download?

I use a program named Greenshot to grab a screenshot of my kit.

I was going to go with red and white stripes, but then it'd look like Stoke or Sunderland instead of Lincoln. So I went with something different.

I suspect what I have - Irfanview - is similar, but I do not know how to get the image from the website to the forum via my computer! Dumb I know, but would be grateful for assistance!

The league is set up, all you guys need to do is set up a team and enter the code for the league

For anyone worried about their football/soccer knowledge, don't be. Warspite supports Spurs and I support a team who are currently four divisions below that, and struggling to stay there! If people really want it, I can provide advice based on my experience which I'll try and keep impartial. It's probably going to be terrible due to my lack of knowledge in the Premier League.

I've joined the leaague, take on anything where they dont stop play for bad light or a few spots of rain!!

To those worried about lack of knowledge, if an Aussie can make the top 25% then you should be a shoe in!

Not smart enough for pictures.

Goalkeeper de Gea Reserve Jones
Defenders Kompany, Hangeland, Riise, Clichy
Midfield Bale, Gerrard, Edu, Lucas
Forwards Van Persie, Dzeko

Reserves Chico, Mulumbu, Anelka

Dzeko might get swapped out for a starter??

I reckon you can get good value for money for defenders, especially those that can get forward and assist or score.

I don´t use a screen capture program at all, just the print screen option on the keyboard.
In a second step, I resize the image, with one of the simpler (free) paint programs. Personally I use Paint.net (http://www.getpaint.net/)
Make sure to save the image as a .jpg file, as this format is supported here on the Matrix forum.

Good luck with van Wolfwinkel... in his previous team, Sporting CP, he missed more that he would actually score. [:'(]

He's going to be great this season. [;)] His time at Sporting was just practice [:D]

The reason why I use Greenshot is that I can easily select the screen region which I want to capture the screenshot and save it in jpeg. All I have to do is start the program and press "Ctrl" + "Prtscn".

Irfanview it also works well, but I'm not sure if it has this function.

I am trying to find out the colours worn by HMS Warspite's football team and if successful these will be my colours. If not I will use the below kit. The shirt colours are those of her crest, the shorts are black in memory of those who fought and died fighting on her, and the socks are blue and white for the sea.

I tried to get her crest as the club badge but didn't come out overly well [:(]








..and the away kit

[warspite1]

...and here is my initial squad - subject to the usual pruning, tinkering and all that jazz that will no doubt take place right up until kick-off [;)]

[warspite1]

BTW - thanks for all the advice - I finally got th1207's method to work.

[Dixie]

Hmmm, I may have to switch a Chelsea player into my team. Two games in the first week against a couple of weaker teams.

Looks like you may need to swap Bale for someone else shortly [:(]

Yes with the "special one" back at the Bridge, I think at least one Chelsea player is a must.

Always a problem here keeping up with transfers and injuries, I can alway swap him for Suarez[:D]

Am i doing something wrong[&:]

[Dixie]

Hmm, not sure what's going on there. If you PM me your email address I can send you an invite that way.

EDIT: Also just double check that there are no spaces at either end of the code. If I copy the code from your post then there's a space at the end, which could throw the website off I guess.
