[ANSWERED] About Unable to save your Screen shot in windows 8

Hello everyone,

As you may notice (if you are using Windows 8) you can’t take ss by pressing the F8
But i found solution: Win+PrintScreen.

A new feature in Windows 8 saves the screenshots automatically to your Pictures directory/library.
It'll be saved in: C:\Users\{USER}\My Pictures\Screenshots.
---------------------------------
Anyway my question is: can we use this method here in Italy mafia to take ss for reports and unban appeals.
i mean there is rule that says : Do not use FRAPS, XFire, etc. to take pictures. Only SA-MP pictures are allowed.
But I don’t see any difference between this ss and samp ss,the same resolution, the same everything+Samp Screen shot feature is not working or not Compatible with Windows 8.
-------------------------------------------------------
Here is simple from Win+PrintScreen :

Try to resize the screen to the maximum (it should be 1330 or something)

Acutally there is no need for PRNTSCRN, or FRAPS or XFire;
You can fix that issue by changing your game resolution as i am using windows 8 and i have no problems with it,
If you use lower resolution and your VISUAL FX Quality is high; for sure it won't take any SS.
