how do you post or submit photo
Posted on October 29th, 2010 at 1:22 am
To take a screen shot with a PC, hit FN+PRT SC keys – FN is typically next to the lower left hand ALT key, PRT SC (print screen) is upper right hand corner next to DELete key.
Click on an existing picture in your “My Pictures” folder to open photo software. File, Edit, PASTE. Look in the My Pictures folder and open the latest file which should be the screen shot you just pasted in. MIght be as a BMP extension file. Open photo, do any cropping, save (might want to save as JPG). And send to FarmVille contest. Best wishes!

Here’s how you get a screenshot:
1. Expand your farm so that it fills the entire screen. Zoom so that you can see the right amount of detail in your picture. Move your cursor to the bottom of the screen.
2. Find the button on your keyboard that says ‘Prtsc SysRq’ it is in the top row toward the right, next to F12 usually. While your farm is full screen, push it once.
3. Minimize your farm, and go to your Start menu. Go to ‘All Programs’ and open ‘Microsoft Office Picture Manager’. When it opens, move your cursor to the middle of the screen. Right click, and then choose ‘Paste’ and the image of your screen should appear.
4. Go to the top of the screen and click ‘Edit Image’ and then at the menu on the right, click ‘crop’ and reduce the size of your image to crop off your friend list, coin and fv cash, etc. then go to the ‘File’ button on the top left of the window, and then ‘Save As’.
A window will pop up that allows you to name your picure and choose a file for it to be stored in.
5. You must submit a JPEG format picture a screenshot is usually bitmap, so here’s how to change that. Go to the file where your picture is stored. Right click on the picture, then go to ‘Open with’ and choose ‘Paint’ from the menu. When it opens, go to ‘file’ at the top left corner, and click ‘Save As’. When the pop-up opens, you will see a ‘File Name’ box and ‘Save as type’ box. Click the down arrow next to the ‘Save as type’ box and click JPEG, then ‘Save’ at the bottom of the pop-up. It will save this image seperately from the bitmap image. You are now good to go!

“How is it much of a contest when everyone has the same costumes? gonna pass on this one”
Gotta go with this. This contest makes so sense.

Its just a raffle 20 RANDOM people will win I’ll enter but cant figure out how to save my picture
Posted on October 29th, 2010 at 10:57 am
Well, not all 80 million players will enter the contest. Several of you have made that clear…lol. And it’s like Pnina says, it’ll be random.
Posted on October 29th, 2010 at 12:27 pm
Hit the Print Screen button on your keyboard while your farm is open. Then open Paint (or other graphics software) and paste. Now just save the image and you can send it.
The part I’m not following is that if you have to send it by email why do Zynga forum accounts matter? Do we have to create a forum account in order to be able to participate?
Posted on October 29th, 2010 at 6:38 pm
yes I wondering with the same like Martin..why do forum account needed?:) but i made one after all..actually i connected with my facebook acc..i was offered
Posted on October 29th, 2010 at 8:23 pm
To Martin and Mario – from my understanding of the post, they don’t want your forum ID. It’s your Facebook ID, meaning.. facebook.com/whateveryourIDis. Now replace the “whateveryourIDis” with some numbers that correlate to your Facebook account, and you get the idea.

I bet they won’t even look at my costume. All the hard work I spent night after night sewing every stich until my danged fingers cramped and bled! >:(
Posted on November 1st, 2010 at 12:28 pm
i clicked the photo of my farmer via the camera present in farmville.then i sent it via email to the ilovemyfarm@zynga.com is it correct….?????
Posted on November 2nd, 2010 at 1:46 am
is there something i am missing here? how can u make your avatar look unique with its costume when you cannot dress it on your own.. i mean, you’ll be a pirate, princess, ugly duckling or whatevs you fancy out there in the market then your neighbor or other contestants will have the same costume as yours… again, am i missing something??

Hola
lo primero no se porque cambiaron los COINS por FV
si ya terminó esta temporada porque no liberan a coins, así uno puede
adquirir mas casas, los trenes y otras decoraciones y el DINOSAURIdesapareció porque Ud dió un tiempo para comprarlo y participar de este concurso , donde la
mayoría no tienen FV para comprar.
Espero que libere para comprar con los coins monedas
saludos

No me queda claro el tema de las fotos, yo siempre saco imágenes de mi granja
y nunca he sabido donde se mandan y como participar de la mejor granja u otra cosa de concurso. Si alguien me ayuda he leído mas arriba pero yo tengo mi álbum de la granja en mi PC, debo mandarla con algún formato y se debe editar??, bien si me ayudan sería genial
saludos
