I'm beyond frustrated, I enjoy creating Sims and sharing them, especially pictures of all their outfits in CAS. The 'c' shortcut doesn't seem to exist in that specific area and hitting print screen and pasting it in paint is only showing a blank box. I don't want to miss out on being able to share my creations because I can't screenshot. Please, help :(

I'll see if I can find something better.
*edit*
there's this at simsVIP
In the comments I see someone says you can paste into here and save instead of paint/other editing software.
Are you playing full game or the demo?
> In full screen mode I think folks use the "print screen" button on their (windows) keyboard but that just copies the image to your "clipboard" and you have to paste it into paint or something? I'm running my game in windowed mode and using windows' "Snipping Tool"... I miss the simplicity of mac's keyboard shortcut to save images... *sigh*

Full game, I've tried to copy and paste using the print screen button but for some reason it's just showing up as a blank box whenever I do that. Although, this works in any other program so I'm not too sure why it isn't working for TS4. I just wish this hadn't been removed and I know plenty of other people feel the same. Maybe they'll update to allow the 'c' shortcut back into CAS.
You will need to have it in windowed mode to use the print screen method.
My Mood:
I just went into the game to give better directions. Do above and then click the little camera icon on the far right top of the box that drops down. It will act like the c button that no longer works. But this icon does and it puts the pictures in your screen shot folder in the game.
Happy Simming.
hmm my print screen button does absolutely nothing, I also have no paint software or anything like that.
I miss how easy it was to make screenshots in The Sims 3.
