ive got two problems, one caused because i was trying to solve the other. my problem is i cant figure out how to make screenshots of my dmods. i downloaded psp to try to do the alt print scrn trick but when i aplied the pallete it stayed messed up. then i deleted that crap and i guess psp made all my fricken images open with it, so then when i would open them it would say "cannot find psp.exe" or some bullshit like that. so now i have to open my graphics with piece of crap quicktime. how do i make them open with internet explorer again? i figured if i couldnt use psp then id just use hyper dx like on the crossroads page. the thing is i dont know how to use it cause dink opens in a full screen window. i only know how to use hyper dx while on a menu. so if somone can help me then help me or if you dont wanna help me then just try to help me anyway cause i could use the help.

I don't blame you for not wanting to use quicktime to view images. Fixing this is really simple though.
To do so hold shift down (not necessary if the file type isn't associated with anything yet) and right click on the file type that you want to open in internet explorer. Then, go to "open with" and browse down to internet explorer. Make sure the "always use this program to open this type of file" checkbox is checked and then just press "ok".
This works for just about any type of files although some program like winamp dislike it if you change their associated file types and won't let you do this without a little extra cajoling.

i just use hyper dx now, forget that pallet rubbish. hyper dx is way better because you can do this auto save crap so whenevr you hit alt print screen it takes a shot and then saves it to you desktop so you can go around taking tons of pictures of all kinds of stuff rather getting one, pasting, loading pallete, saving, and opening the game and getting back to the spot to take pictures.
