The second. And feel free to post your own picture, even if there's already one that hasn't been guessed yet. Just be sure to specify whose picture you are guessing when you are guessing.

I am having problem making this work.
I follow the instructions but only the top left part of the screenshots gets zoomed in. The rest of the pictures is nowhere to be found, zoomed in or not.

I also tried to select part of the screenshot, but again from the selection only the top left of it zooms in and the rest just disappears. (there is nothing to scroll down/right etc)

If you follow my instructions exactly, then immediately after stretching the picture, you should see something like this (click this and maximize the new window, or you won't be able to see the selection box):


You have a big selection box, but only the upper-left part of the selection box is visible. When this happens, put the mouse cursor on the lower-right corner of the visible area, then click and hold the mouse button. With the mouse button down, move the mouse around. When you have a visible chunk of the screen that you are happy with, let go, and save it as a new file.

hmm, it short of works if I don't select all.
But, I have mspaint.exe using almost 700MBs of memory.
I will edit this post asap.

EDIT: ok this is weird, now I can't open the program.
I get the error message "
There is not enough memory or resources to complete operation. Close some programs, and then try again.

I guess il get the ball rolling again



Used photoshop, that was the most pixelated i could get it so that someone could actually know the game's color and what not, rather then just randomly guessing games.
