How to take a Screenshot!
( Advice is to close chat box)
Players can quickly take a screenshot now using the Print Screen button on their keyboard. This will save the file in your C:/Program Files/KingsIsle Entertainment/Wizard101/Bin folder (note this will capture your entire screen, so if you are running Wizard windowed, it will capture everything on your screen) You will see the following text to let you know you took a screenshot. In your email make sure to state which image is A,B or C
Another way to take a screenshot using your Print Screen button. Follow these steps:
while in the game, press Alt+PrtScn buttons
Alt+Tab to desktop and start MSPaint or similar application
create new image file
press Ctrl+V or otherwise paste the clipboard content
save the file in a safe place you'll remember
(Desktop is what I use) I would name your screenshot A,B or C
You can then either drag your screenshot into your email or add it as attachment to email to my contest email.
Hi I am Miranda Dreamsong.

Hello,
ReplyDeleteI have two questions.
1. Does the water pump count as a water tower?
2. Does the dorm room have to based on a real fairy tale, fable, or folk tale that as been written/published, or can we make one up?
Thanks,
- Ellie IceRiver
1. No needs to be a tower. You can craft one that is a bit shorter.
Delete2. I would search the internet. There are literally 1000's to choose from. You can take one and make your own version of it.
Julia RainbowCloud here :D
ReplyDeleteOne question, can we use castle magic on our items? Including the required? Thanks :) So excited for this theme.
Yes. You can also use monstrogoly house guests.
DeleteMake sure judges can see the item if it's used on one of the 5 items
DeleteYes, of course thanks :)
DeleteCastle magic is allowed?
ReplyDeleteYes. If you use castle magic on one of the 5 items , you have to make sure judges can see that item.
Delete"( Be sure to tell the Judges how you used each of the 5 items and how they worked into your dormroom theme and design.)
Putting an item in the corner and saying, oh I dropped that over there, doesn't give the reason why you used that item."
Can we use glitching to decorate our dorm?
ReplyDeleteYes
Delete* To be fair to all entries you must stay within the dorm room space. (If you use floating technique you must stay within the walls of your dorm room.) Sinking items into walls is fine. Outside (Blue areas) walls cannot be seen in screenshots.
Hi Paige! my sister and Me both want to enter, but I'm like super nervous It'll disqualify us because we're coming from the same house/computer. Will that happen or are we both allowed to enter?
ReplyDelete- Valkoor Wintermask
All you need is your own emails. You can your sister would have to have separate emails. I would never Disqualify family members from entering. Your both allowed to enter with your own emails.
DeleteCan we change wallpapers between screen shots? Example facing north one wall paper *takes screen shot*. Then turn face south and change to a 2nd wall paper and take a screen shot.
ReplyDeleteAs long as your not redecorating each time. Meaning only paper is changed for effect. Make sure you mention why.
DeleteHai! omg I'm so excited to submit my submission! mine involves pets in specific places, so I have to be in furniture arranging mode to get good screenshots! is that ok?
ReplyDeleteAs long as one screenshot follows the m7st have name showing. Not using control G
DeleteHi. I'm Miranda Dreamsong (but will submit side character Brandon Dreamsong's dorm)
ReplyDeleteI was curious whether in the screenshot with our wizard in it, if we can have the housing inventory open to use its zoomed out camera?
The one with your wizard must have your wizard in the screen shot with your name showing. Without using control G. Aslong as that is showing you can be in decorating mode. I would suggest using your Brandon wizard since its his dorm.
ReplyDeleteYou have nothing against us using the Bric-a-Brac elixir, right?
ReplyDeleteYou may use as many as you need.
ReplyDeleteI resent a fixed version of my entry to you. I didn't get a verification of you getting that version of it, could you see if you got it? It has parentheses around my name with the words fixed entry.
ReplyDeleteYou're fine. Auto will only send it once.
DeleteLast minute question:
ReplyDeleteI have made a house in my dorm, but it is hard to see the inside of it. Can I use castle magic in one picture to make it disappear?
Yes you may use castle magic.
DeleteHi I'm Miranda/Brandon
ReplyDeleteI'm curious, how many people joined the contest this year? It sounds like maybe hundreds if not thousands based on the amount of prizes. Also, about how long will it take for the winners to be announced?
P.S. Good luck everyone!
We've gotten a few enteries. Winners will be announced by Wednesday latest Thursday.
DeleteHey, Paige! Could you possibly tell us how many entries you have received this year?
ReplyDeleteWe've gotten pretty good amount. Winners will be announced on or before rhursday
DeleteI never got a confirmation email that mine was received. Do you always send a confirmation? My wizard is Sydney Shadowwalker
ReplyDeleteYes it was received. Yahoo emails were giving me issues this year. Yahoo doesn't allow auto replies.
