They are in some weird format if that helps, I know photoshop will open them.

my computer / local disk / program files / steam / steamapps / username / team fortress 2 / tf / screenshots

to open them i use paint.net which is a small free program u can download here:

Speaking of which, here comes a new thread of special shots!

Hey in case you all dont know if you want your screenshots to come in a standard jpeg instead of that weird tga format then type in console:

bind F5 "jpeg"

and you can replace f5 w. any key you want instead. Then everytime you take a screenshot it will be in .jpeg instead and no need to convert or use odd programs.

Another good, lightweight program that opens targa's (.tga). I use it sometimes when I don't feel like waiting for Photoshop to load up (which isn't much of an excuse anymore on my new system ).

duality thx for the jpg post that will be good as i dont keep a targa viewer on my pc just the converter

Heres a funny screenshot I found in my batch. I was avenged...

TGA (Targa) files are really easy to write for programs, which equates to faster, therefore many programs use that format for screenshots.
