Screenshot

Screenshots are images taken in-game by pressing the F2 key (Fn+F2 for Macs and some laptops). They can be found in the screenshots folder of the .minecraft directory, which is found by pressing "options" in the Minecraft launcher.

Screenshots save as a PNG file with the following format: YYYY-MM-DD_HH.MM.SS.png, for example: 2011-02-12_12.25.05.png, which translates to February 12, 2011, 12:25:05. The screenshot will save exactly what it looks  like in-game, so if you press F1 then F2, all of the GUI will be hidden in the screenshot.

The screenshots folder location varies by operating system.

''Hint: "~" means "your home directory" in *nix-based systems like Mac OS X and Linux.
 * Windows XP / Vista / 7:
 * Mac OS X:
 * Linux:

Trivia

 * Before the Beta 1.5 update was implemented, holding shift while pressing F2 will create a massive screenshot (1.8 GB) which could crash the game.
