Ok, so I've been a Mac user for years now, and just recently switched to a Windows 8 comp. I'm quite 'nooby' with it and I need some help. I've also creenshotted a BUNCH of people who have done something in chat they shouldn't have. Where do I find screenshots in your Windows 8?
Thanks ~Kidzies

This works for Windows 7, so I'm not sure for 8, but you can give it a shot.
Go to your Start Menu > Type "%appdata%" without quotation marks > Double-click "Roaming" > Double-click ".minecraft" > Double-click "screenshots"

There you go, hope this helped.

If you're pressing Print Screen it only saves one at a time, and it stays copied to your clipboard as long as you don't copy/cut something else.

Yes I use f2, I'll have to check later because I do not have access to my comp ATM.

And also how do I upload it to imgur?
First you'll need to make an account, and once done with that follow these steps:

Since I don't use imgur, I'm not 100% sure but look for something that says "Upload" or something like that.
Then select the photo(s) that you would like to upload and it should put them in some sort of library in which you can click and look at the different photos.

You actually don't need an account, you can upload screenshots without one. (like me :p)
Just look for this button:

After you click that you can either drag and drop your screenshots onto the page or you can press "Browse your computer" and find your screenshots from there.

Finally! I thought i never find a W8 user! Ok, so take your mouse to upper or lower right corner, so you get the Start, Search, Settings, etc icons. Press search. Search %appdata%. It takes you to the desktop and opens %appdata% then .minecraft, screenshots and POOF there you go! :)

EDIT HyperKiller, this doesn't work on Windows 8, because there is no Start button.
