Embedding Steam screenshots
« on: December 19, 2011, 05:38:12 am »
How do you do it? What part of the URL do you use? I'm trying to make an interactive game, but [./pic]ing them is harder than I anticipated. I could theoretically take the screenshots from my hard drive, upload them to Imgur, and embed those... But that seems rather contrived if they're already hosted on my Steam profile.

Maybe it's parasitic. It never loses its flavor because you eventually die from having your nutrients stolen by it.

Ah, I hadn't thought to use Firefox. I'll try that now.
