As I am reading forums, everyone posts their BGs as pictures. This sucks for nooblars. I dunno what the picture to name translation is. Would it be difficult to add an export BG to text feature on the rune manager and have people use that?
Some people used to use pox base but far as I'm tracking it's out dated now. Maybe just ask the bg poster the name of the runes used. I'm sure they wouldn't mind.
I have a question very similar to this one. How are people posting pictures of their bg's? I have a thread in the KF forum where I posted my bg but I had to write out every rune which seems like a lot more work than posting a picture. Is there something easy that I can do to get the picture? I'm sure there is and someone is about to tell me and I'm going to feel stupid. But it will be better for me to feel stupid and know how to do it rather than not asking and not knowing.
Well, thing is, I am looking over the KF forum and there is a thread with like 100 BGs. I'd kind of be an ass if I asked them to translate each one to text one by one. I just want to look them over and get a feel. You know? They really should make an export to text button on the rune manager. It's probably a one line sql query.
Ah man, go ahead and ask about runes you are not certain of. Usually someone will throw you a bone and help you out without to much trolling. Well, unless you are in the IS forums. Bunch of pricks those guys...
I just use the print screen (prt sc) key when I'm looking at my bg to take a screenshot. This copies the image to the clipboard. Then open paint and paste it on there. From there you can crop out what you dont want and save it.
You can copy a screenshot into paint, cut out the BG section, and then past it directly into the text window.
Or you can download Lightshot from this wonderful site (it's legitimate and it's how I do my screens): http://prnt.sc/
if you are using windows, search for the snip tool or snipping tool, pin the snip tool to your task bar, it is super handy.
i think that now your only choice is to ask about lists of bgs you like. but you also can see the problem as an improvement chance: you have to search for runes so your knowledge of the game improves.
Clicking cards one by one and trying to match pictures really doesn't improve my knowledge of the game at all. Dedicating my finite amount of time to learning what is on the actual cards and which work together does. I'll try asking none-the-less. Best we can do for now. Wish developer would implement text export. Can't be hard.
I seem to recall there actually being something like this on a previous iteration of the website (which had its own built-in forums back then, too), but, if I'm remembering correctly, it wasn't brought through to the new(er) version of the site because it wasn't used much or something like that.
