Lazy, but willing to post screens
If someone(s) will tell me what I need to take MPG screenshots I will post a bunch of the Civ3 pre-order screens here.
I am just too lazy to look up how to do it.

Can you scan the picture of the Zulu leader Shaka off of the back of the box anuni? He is the one leader who has yet to have a picture emerge on the internet.

You pause the movie first, at the frame you want. alt+printscreen, then open Paint and ctrl+v (paste).

This method is how I end up inserting graphs into Word documents. Importing from Excel sucks! Long live alt+printscreen!

Hey thanks for telling us about that Krazy horse, that's a genuinely useful function I never came accross in my years of computer use. I can't wait to show it off to all my friends! 
In any event, good work on the pics Anuni, you once again prove yourself to be an exceedingly valuable member of the community.
Can you describe in words (if at all possible) what the Zulu leader looks like?

If I have a pic on my HD, is there a way to get the pic to 'show' on here(not just a download)? Does it have to be available at a URL? Thanks

Bitmaps aren't a common Internet format.

You'd better not ask any more questions that I know the answer to; I'm beginning to feel like a bit of a guru.

btw, (and sorry if I'm wrong) is there any difference in the results of using "alt + printscreen" or just "printscreen"? I've always used the 2nd method and had no problems...

Is that some sort a of adavanced tranportation system on the far left in the city view shot?

When I hit "printscreen" on the comps at school, it would bring up a printer dialogue.

Well, for me, just hitting printscreen saves a copy of the entire desktop, alt+printscreen only saves a copy of the currently selected window.

They said that the buiuldings whould change their looks to fit the age that you are in. Since this appears to be a modern picture (see the offshore platform on the right) I can only assume that your 'advanced transportation system' is really a more modern looking aqueduct, since it is in the same place the old aqueduct was.

Yes, if you look closely it looks like a small canal.

I think it's a modern aqueduct. It's exactly in the same place and form as the aqueduct shown in ancient time screenshots.

Yup. The ancient version is obviously an aqueduct in the Roman style. If this were a canal, don't you think it would reach all the way to the sea?
