Hi there!

Instead of telling you to read and search, I will actually take the time to help you.

When I've made a nice saber on the MHS Builder, I like to hit the "print screen" button in the upper right hand corner of your keyboard.

I'll then open up my favorite graphics program and open up a new document and select "paste". You'll see the screen you took a picture of when you pressed print screen come up.

Now just crop the image and save it.

Once saved, you can go to a site like photobucket and upload it there. Once uploaded, you can copy the url and post it as a pic.

or

attach the picture to the message you're posting here.

Any question or isn't something clear to you? Please let me know.

Actually the MHS builder has a button that creates the image for you, and it will even crop it to the right size. Just click the "Save Build" button. It's easier than doing what Grue suggests, and it yields a better result.

Grue, you might want to avoid giving advice until after you've been here a little longer.

Well, sometimes the "Save Build" hasn't worked for me, so it's good to have another way to save it.

Same for me! Good advice grue!

Foot in mouth. Print screen is a great alternative to Save Build. Save build is still easier if it works for you, but it's always useful to know what your choices are. Good advice indeed Grue.

I guess I was just reacting to the negativity some users have had recently toward those of us who insist that new users take their time, use the search function, and read for themselves. It bothered me that the very first response to the Coryn's question was a dig at those members, when nobody had even had the chance to suggest to Coryn that he look for himself.

But I am at fault, so I apologize Grue.

I personally prefer the save build button as it doesn't leave me with the graph lines behind my renders. Also, feel free to post your Concepts in the Concepts and Sketches sticky found here

quoted for agreement.

Save Build 'should' work for everyone in all browsers.. (Unless of course there has or is a big update or its down for maintenance)

it doesnt work for linux users far as i know. i had to do the print screen method myself on this computer. and when you use this method you can also add your own little flare in paint shop or whatever you use. like overlay designs, and you can even edit out the graph and everything else and leave it as just the saber, and you can make it any size you want
