I've been delaying starting my turn because I'm wondering if there's some way to make those huge images all of you are posting. I may just be bad at comparing my screen and screenshots, but it seems I have a much smaller resolution or something.

Do you know how to check the dimensions of the screenshots we have up so far, and the dimension of your screen? If you can do those, we can easily figure out whether your screen is smaller or not.

No, I don't know how to do my screen. Checking the dimensions of the images I can do easily, though.
Merge~ -1024px × 688px is what phrost's images seem to be.
-Merge~ --And I'm 1024 x 768. So I just modify my windowed settings to be 1024 by 768?

Officially fiddle faddled with my settings to make them hopefully big enough for screenshots. I'll be starting soon.

Honestly, I think any sized screenshot that displays everything you are trying to capture is sufficient. If I had had the foresight to capture an screenshot with the rhesus invasion in progress, I likely would have cropped it down to just the outside area that they were in (ok, so I'm a lazy bum and likely wouldn't have cropped it, but I would have *thought* about it...). Also the "world" images are direct exports from the game; no way those would fit on my screen. The others *should* be roughly 1600x1050, as that's what I have my X/Y set to for windowed mode, but Photobucket may have altered the images. But I left a bunch of stuff in those images that wasn't necessary for what I was trying to show, and could have trimmed them down.
My advice: take some "action" screenshots of neat in-game events (pause it just in case); things that you think you'll want to dramatize in your write-up. That way you don't end up posting lame seasonal-snapshops like *someone*..
