Re: Attribution in the Screenshots-Datas from Simutrans Reply #3 – November 05, 2008, 03:33:02 pm That might be quite hard to do. As I see in the code, on Windows it is just one function.You should convert the screenshots to PNG or JPG and then add metainformation.For jpeg you can probably find lots and lots of programs for editing its internals; even Irfanview can change comments in them.For png I would recommend TweakPNG. Unpack it to where you want it to stay (Program files/tweakpng?), run it and go to menu options-preferences; check the add to context and now you can right-click any png picture on your computer and edit it with this. When you want to add text entry, menu insert-text and fill the subject and text. Quote Selected
Re: Attribution in the Screenshots-Datas from Simutrans Reply #4 – November 05, 2008, 04:11:33 pm I rather meant, the websites showing the screenshots need to display the attribution.http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=757.msg6489#msg6489But I agree, to tag the images themselves might be clever, too.
