I took screenshots. Went into the screenshot folder for sims 3, and it was empty!

Did you press "C" or click the camera icon while in the game?  Are you sure you went to the right place to find the images?  It's located at C:/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Screenshots.

[Beezy]

Yes, I used the C button. It didn't show up on the files, but it showed up on the launcher.

Nevermind... fixed it.

How do you resize a picture and to what size? I took the picture above and i think its too big 

[Ricalynn]

It's a little bigger than we like but there are instructions on page 2 from Thomas on what to do when using Photobucket.

That link should take you directly to his post.

Huh, my photo bucket doesnt look like that. I need to investigate... Thanks though, everyone elses photos are much better. I'll see what Im doing wrong..Thanks Ricalynn!!

That post was from like 2010, so its updated and its not like that. http://s1357.beta.photobucket.com/
Thats the new photobucket and its different. If you want to resize it, you have to edit the picture, click on adjustment, click on resize and then put it to width and height. 

[Ricalynn]

The instructions have now been updated for the new photobucket.  Please let me know if there are any problems you can see with the instructions. 

Easy resizing that was formerly done when you uploaded images is a thing of the past unfortunately as legitpicklegirl10 pointed out.

[Ricalynn]

There has been another update to the work in progress that is Photobucket.  You can now have the website auto-resize all uploaded photos.  To get this option is now included in the instructions in the first post.

[legitpicklegirl10]

I'm sorry but what size do I need to put it to? 640x480? There's been many different posts saying different heights and lengths.

[Ricalynn]

800 x 600 is what the swap shop rules and story rules both say.

[legitpicklegirl10]

Ok thanks!! Now I can get started on my legacy!!! 

[legitpicklegirl10]

Which one is better?? I think the top one is too big.
