Dave had posted this game on another thread yesterday: http://junk.dawnshadow.se/yp010.swf The scoring is a bit different - you can't smack it as far - i think 320 was my high on that one. Actually - it appears to be offline. |

I like this supercharged version better than the one I previously had been using. 588.8 is my high score. Just one more thing to keep me from actually doing work. |

I'm on PC.
Hit the Prt Scr button.
Go to Photoshop.
Hit CTRL-N for new file.
Hit CTRL-V to paste the screen.
Then crop and save. |

[ Shift+Apple +4 ] on a Mac will give you crosshairs to select a region of your screen.
(Photoshop not required) |

Don't have photoshop so you are going to have to take my word that I made 452.1 feet.  Honest!!
The secret seems to be to hit linedrives and get a good roll after the poor penguin lands. A little like golf? |

Ok I can do the screen capture on my mac but when I try to upload/post it it just shows as a clickable pdf file that you can then click. How do I get the image to show up in the post? |

PDF is Mac's new native graphic format (used to be PICT). Open in Preview or Acrobat and Save As a jpeg file. |

Jamie, why so complicated? On a PC, just hold ALT and hit Print Scrren - it captures the topmost/active window. Then paste wherever you want.
Also - question: what do the numbers - the scores - in this game mean? |

it's supposed to be how many feet you smack the penguin,
check out my other post a few down from here, there is a link to the original author's site and a new version that will keep track of your top score as you play. |

I like this new version. Methinks the club might be corked.

I object to this cruel game! I love penguins. Can't we club baby seals instead? |
