The picture of Wishes

Hello Willlamme1988, I saw you have a plenty of hard work in editing the List of Wishes article. I'm just wondering that how did you get all the Wish pictures. I'm just want to help you too editing that article. Even though I don't have all the EPs but will you tell me how to get them? ThePeculiarMe | (talk to me) 13:48, May 7, 2014 (UTC)

On the Windows Operating System Win7 and up you will find on your bottom left toolbar a program called the clipping tool, when activated the tool pauses all activity on your computer and allows you to cut an image from your screen then resumes video feedback on the computer. No matter what resolution you  play in, running in windowed mode all wishes are 64x64 pixels. If you manage to get an image that is not this size you've done something wrong. 

To achieve best results, run in windowed mode, bind your clipping tool to a hot key like F8, when a wish arrises thats not been recorded, press F8 wait about a half a second, then hover over the wish to make it pop up before visual freeze takes place. Your capture should look like this. Which provides the description, Icon, and LH value. Do NOT use lifetime happiness values from wishes with a sunburst underneath them, this means they are modified with a bonus.

When you are finished adding the raw data, open the image in Paint, use the Selection tool to relocate the image to the upper left corner.

Place the lasso around the wish Icon.

Drag the selection to the furthest edge of image.

Resize the base image to a 64x64 with no protruding edges.

Save Image, Upload to Wikia, Remove right and left orientation formatting within the article and assign copyright as Screenshot for Sims 3.

I get it. Thank you for showing the procedures. However, Can I just printscreen it and edit it on Paint. I would be easier to get that image. But I would try your plan instead. So, again, thanks. :) ThePeculiarMe | (talk to me) 12:18, May 8, 2014 (UTC)

Print screen creates an image of 2.08million pixels, clip tool caps one of around  250,000. If you clip you can pull 40-50 caps per window without interupting gameplay wheras PrintScreen requires you to open paint, paste, and save every image. I have a personal preference for a 5 second process vs a 20 second process without closing, or tabbing away from my game window. Of course you should use whatever method you are most comfortable with.
