Rift: Screenshots, Twitter and Facebook

To take screenshots using a Windows7 machine, use Print Screen. You may have to hold down the control key while pushing Print Screen.  A lot depends on your keyboard brand.

If you don't have a print screen key, go into Keybindings and change the Screenshot key to one of the Function keys or something else you never use in-game.

If you want to remove the UI bars first, press Control plus U to hide the interface.  Pushing Control plus U twice removes guild tags and names.  Pushing Control Plus U the third time puts the UI bars back.

Screenshots are files in the RiftGame/screenshots folder wherever your game is installed (probably in C:/Program Files/RiftGame/screenshots).

Apparently the command /tweetpic will put a photo into your Twitter account.

This is how you push info to Facebook.
