When I played a game in Pawn, I've seen alot of people asking "How do you take a screenshot?" I told them couple of times but they keep ignoring me.
I made this guide for you beginners so you don't have to annoy people. Also, there are 3 different opperating systems on how to take a screenshot - Windows,
Macintosh - Linux. This is also good for taking screenshots of your gameplay or something interesting you want to tell people.
Note: If you are lazy to keep coming back to this page, why don't you bookmark it?
