Upload Screenshot

Upload Screenshot

Uploading a Screenshot in CIT means taking a screenshot, finding or saving it, and then uploading it to a supported image host so you can share the link.

Screenshot notes

There are two main ways to handle screenshots in CIT:

• take a normal screenshot with F12 and upload it to an image host
• use /takess <title> to take, save, and send a screenshot in CIT

You can also use:

• /viewss to open your saved screenshot list in CIT

Taking a screenshot

Standard screenshot

To take a normal screenshot in CIT:

• press F12

MTA reports Screenshot taken: '...' when it succeeds, or Screenshot failed if it cannot take the screenshot.

CIT screenshots are in the screenshots folder inside your MTA folder, usually C:\Program Files (x86)\MTA San Andreas 1.6 or C:\Program Files\MTA San Andreas 1.6. File names look like mta-screen_2026-09-28_16-13-34.png (date, then time). You can also use Open file location on the MTA shortcut.

After that, you can upload the screenshot to an image host.

CIT screenshot command

To take, save, and send a screenshot in CIT, use:

/takess <title>

This is the CIT screenshot command.

Viewing saved screenshots

To open your saved screenshot list in CIT, use:

/viewss

This lets you view the screenshots saved through the CIT screenshot system.

How to upload a screenshot

After taking a screenshot with F12:

• open an image host
• upload the screenshot from the screenshots folder inside your MTA folder
• copy the image link
• share the link where needed

The listed image hosts include:

• Imgur
• Postimages
• ImgBB
• Pasteboard

Uploading with Imgur

To upload a screenshot with Imgur:

• go to https://imgur.com

Using screenshots for reports

Screenshots are also used in reports.

For example:

• /report opens the report GUI and automatically takes a screenshot
• /reports opens the same GUI without automatically taking a screenshot

If you want to use the automatic screenshot from /report as proof:

• leave the Proof field empty
