Does anyone else screenshot profusely?

[Candre]

I can\'t really put my finger on why I constantly screenshot whenever I do something in-game. Stage separations, explosions, landing gear deployments, KSC flyovers, orbits in the map, or just anything somewhat significant in general - I screenshot it. I think it has something to do with never being in the same situation again, and wanting to save it. Wut? Does anyone else do this, or am I insane?

Maybe I just somehow think I\'m F5\'ing or something...

I can\'t really decide if this should be in off-topic or just general discussion. Better safe than sorry!

[Vanamonde]

I don\'t go as crazy with it as you do, but it\'s reached the point where I think I need to make some sub-folders and sort my collection so that I can find the one I want when I need it. For categories I\'m thinking: scenery, achievements, comical mishaps, the staggering awesomeness that is my ship designs (that one would have a lot of crossover with comical mishaps), and stuff that illustrates ideas.

[togfox]

am I insane?

I think you\'re insane.

In the nicest possible way.

Out of curiosity, check your screenshots folder - how many meg have you used up? PNG files are very nice but quite large.

[Steve5451]

I do this. I take pictures when launching, separating stages, reaching altitudes, pretty much every chance I get.

I have a problem. :\'(

[Ascensiam]

KSP is a scale-wise impressive game, sometimes you can\'t help but admire the incredible beauty of what you are doing or your ship design. I know the feel.

[Vanamonde]

All tidily sorted now.

Achievements (rover parked by a monolith, etc.) : 103

Catastrophes: 52

Illustrations (of orbital mechanics and stuff): 16

Scenery: 240

Ship designs: 32

Knowing you don\'t care but feeling the need to post this anyway: part of the sickness.

[cardgame]

Wow. My KSP folder only has 80 screenies for a total of 54MB.

[Radion]

I\'ve got 870 screenshots in my folder for a total of 296 MB. I screenshot intensely, as you can see.

[Australian Sloth]

I have over half a gig of photos, just from 0.14 onwards.

I probably have around a gig in total if I can find them all.

[NovaSilisko]

285 screenshots totalling 130 mb in my development folder (no, you can\'t see any of them ;P)

except maybe this one

[Cykyrios]

My, what happened to this poor Kerbal? Did he explode or something?

I don\'t take many screenshots myself, but things like Nova\'s picture are something I\'d definitely want to see again =P

[NovaSilisko]

My, what happened to this poor Kerbal? Did he explode or something?

Heh, it was before we had kerbal deaths coded. They would just hit the ground and keep on going, bounding across the surface.

Dev is Classified? DANG IT! JK, though looking at those screenies would be intresting.

No, I don\'t really do that unless I\'m on a mission to take pictures of my mission.

Nova, I think people are going to try to make lots of Kerbal deaths now. Also for gravitational purposes, assuming an EVA occurs on Minmus, and the EVA keeps bouncing, can you end their \'flight\'? Also since they each control one of the motions, will you not be able to access that motion on the return trip?

[HAIL_Probe101]

1.2gb of screenshots in this version alone, not shocking to me but it may be to some

[Bluejayek]

I\'m at screenshot number 1226 in my folder. I was regularly cleaning it out for a while but I havent for quite some time.

[Vanamonde]

I just crashed my plane because I was paying more attention to lining up the camera for the perfect screenshot than I was flying the plane. For the third time. Today.

I do that, but it\'s when I\'m adjusting my view for flight, not screenshots.

[cardgame]

If in Windows, setting fraps to take a screenie every x seconds is a good choice for finding a good shot without necessarily arranging it, so you can have more time to fly the plane instead of taking pictures ;P

[maltesh]

829 MB, currently containing 1,253 screenshots in the current version. Symlinked to my Dropbox account\'s public folder. And then there\'s an estimated 20 GB of video.

[popeter123]

a mate of mine once had 4000 photes on his

he deleated all of them to put gost recon on his computer

so at the moment he has about 20

[Valdez]

I used to document my first Mun and Minmus missions with several screenshots and a short description of each flight (the program had an 80% fatality rate ). Maybe I was being a bit obsessive...

[Tim_Barrett]

Wut... I probably only take 8 pictures a mission, unless it was important and needed any kind of proof/just for fun (first Minmus landing)

[Randox]

I have like 20 screenshots total. And normally I have to launch specific missions to get them, because my natural state of being is ignorance that screenshots are even a thing.

Where\'s the artistry in that? =P
