Plant Tycoon has a built-in feature that allows you to take snapshots of your flower arrangements. To produce a snapshot, simply click on the little camera icon in the upper right corner of your greenhouse. You will be taken to the snapshot screen, where you can arrange your plants, change the scene, and make a snapshot. When you push the Take Snapshot button, a picture named PlantTycoon_Snapshot will be stored on your desktop. If you want to take more than one snapshot, you will need to move rename the picture after you make it, or it will be replaced the next time you click the Take Snapshot button.

Once you have your Plant Tycoon snapshot on your desktop, there are several ways to get your picture into your post:

The first, which is free and easy, is to have your pictures available on a web site in order to link to them from your post in the forum. There are many free picture hosting sites, such as http://www.imageshack.us or http://www.photobucket.com that you can upload your pictures to. Once you have uploaded your pictures, copy the link to your picture and paste it into your post using the "Enter an image" button in the post editing window. Most hosting sites have tutorials that explain how to link to your pictures.

You could also just attach your picture using the file manager. If you want to attach a file to your post, you must use the Reply or New Topic function, since the Quick Reply function will not provide access to the file manager. To attach a file to your post, click on File Manager in the Post Options section of the Posting Form, which will open the File Manager Screen. The file(s) you wish to attach can be added using the input field and the buttons. A simple way to specify the file name and location is to use the Browse button and navigate to the desired file on your computer. Once the file name is displayed in the input field, click on the Add button to add that file to the File Manager. The file will be listed at the top of the File Manager page. To add more files, repeat the process for each additional file. As you add files, they will also be displayed at the top of the file Manager page. When you are finished attaching files, click the Done Adding Files button. You will be returned to your post, and the number of files that you added will be displayed next to the File Manager link. After you click Submit, the files will be listed as individual attachments at the bottom of your post.
