    print screen + windows screen saver/wall papering issues

    Ok they may be petty-ish, but are worth looking into.

    When in the Windows version if you have wall paper that is set to cycle it seems to wanna screw up the Zquest and ZC screen to really dull opake coloring. Also it will make the wall papaer stretch down in zsize (I can only assume it's due to a difference in resolution while the wall paper makes the switch.

    Print screen key also does not work in the windows version and that can be very valuable when snapping a screen that won't allow you to hit the etc menu or use the quick key screen grab (F11 or 12).

    Just superficial issues I guess, but the coloring thing really does suck... your lucky if you can see to save. I'd send a pic, but the printscreen and quick keys won't pick it up.

    Personally..I never heard of "cycling wallpaper"

    but now I know to stay away from it if I ever come across it.
    My new MySpace Zelda Classic Community <--This group is still open as of 2010

    Lost Triforce Series comeback in the works, being imported to 2.11, as that one I can use in XP and change screen size.

    Also, look for me on Facebook at DemoQuestFan's Facebook Page

    Webshots does cycling wallpaper. It is a blight on society. It sucks up resources. It's one of the pet peeves of us technicians where I work. :angry:

    Lol man... I only brought this up cause my wife yelled at me when it happened... the print screen is an issue though, but you hit the nail on the head... web shots.

    and yes I do hate them.
