My New Zoos!
« on: September 09, 2006, 05:18:00 PM »
Hello! I have had Zoo  tycoon 2 for awile and i decided to start a story. My first story is THE SAHARA DESERT! Here it is,,,,,      Hello, i'm my name is michelle ( that's not ny real name ) And i work at a local zoo in New York City! I am a  geographic photogerpher. And since the city doesn't have much wildlife, the  zoo has ordered me to go to the sahara desert and bring back some pictures ( and possibly some animals ) back to the zoo! So i packed my bags and got on the plane to start my Adventure!!!!!

               The pictures will arrive very shortly, I just have to figure out how to post pics!

I hope you get it figured out - if you don't have pictures to show for the "Show and Tell" topics, I'm afraid someone will close this thread :crying:

Please don't hesitate to ask if you have additional questions.

Have you got the pictures onto imageshack? Or is there a problem before then?

go to a site like Photobucket, and upload your pics.  Then, copy and paste the given URL for each pic into your post, and you've created a link!  Hope that helps.

If you're having problems saving the pics to your computer, go to the in-game photo album and click the button in the middle with a photo album and an arrow.  that will open your pics in a browser window.  Right click to save them.

The way I do it is take pictures in game, and then put them in my photo album. Then, if you are in full-screen mode, hit Alt-Tab to get to your desktop again, and go to either

Start > All Programs > Microsoft Games > Zoo Tycoon 2 > Zoo Tycoon 2 Profiles

OR

C:\Documents and Settings\(Your Name Here)\Application Data\Microsoft Games\Zoo Tycoon 2\

then click your name or "default" to get to your saved games/photos. Then go to "photos" and the pics you have just taken will be in the newest album number (assuming that you have saved the pictures to your most recently created album). For instance, I have 15 albums, and my newest pics get put into folder "album15". Then scroll through, find the pictures you want to upload in there. From here you can do two things:

1. You can put it into an image program (paint works) to edit off the black edges or to resize, resave it as a new image name, and then upload it -OR-
2. Upload it straight to photobucket or imageshack.

The way file hosting sites work is this: You go there, register yourself a name, and then afterwards, you should be able to hit "Browse" to look for an image to upload from your computer. Once you have found the image you want to upload, select it, and hit "Ok" or "upload". THe site will keep a copy of the picture that is on your computer and put it on the web. That's right, now you're work is on the internet! Hooray!

If you need additional assistance, again, don't hesitate.
