They're all going to say Fraps or X-Fire.

I just started using Fraps and it's SUPER easy! I'd recommend it.

Why, by pressing the screenshot key combo!  ;)

With xfire logged in: Tools -> Options... , and then select the "Chat" tab.
Look at what the "Screenshot Key Binding" is set to. (I've changed mine, so I've forgotten what the default is....)

Pressing that sequence at any time while you're logged in to xfire will place a date-timestamped screenie in the "screenshots" folder in your xfire install location.

Note that by default these will upload to your PUBLICALLY-VIEWABLE xfire profile unless to UNcheck the "Upload" box, or check the "Delete" box, for them all when xfire rpesents them as thumbnails when you exit your game.

Finally, I've read that xfire now has some kind of video support, but I haven't used it, since I own a copy of Fraps....

PS: Please dont leave sreenshots on your xfire page that contain profanity. If you upload them anyone can see them.  You best dont upload or delete them, xfire than still saves the files to your computer.
