High Rez Snapshot Bugs

Hello there. As of late I've been experiencing some issues taking High-Rez snapshots. Here they come:

1) While wearing any kind of HUD attachment, the picture you shoot will be covered showing the HUD attachment(s) all over the picture. A way to avoid this is by either unattaching all HUD attachments, or by hiding them visibly, but I suppose it should not be acting like this.

2) When enabling the Light Glows function in Debug, High-Rez snapshots will show the 'Glow' as square fields instead of the nice glowing effect that should be there.

3) Though I cannot confirm this, taking High Rez snapshots often crashes me ever since version 1.10. Usually this happens when taking my first snapshot after having been in game for some time already.

That's all I found. ;)

To add on, I know I've heard a few people complain that high-res shots show up with gridlines all over them. Not sure if it does that when saved to disk, but it does when uploaded as a snapshot.

I have the same problems. It never crashed before and nowit does, which is nightmarish when I'm doing a photoshoot. Click. Save. Logoff. Logon. Click. Save. Logoff. Logon.........

Which the hugs I guess it's because when something in attached to a HUD area it can't be rezzed any furter. It's a pain for those of us who want to take high-res snaps with the HuddyBuddy on.

Snapshots

Ive recently had some problems with the snapshots as well... The snapshots now are a grey background when they should be white... this has happened to all of my snapshots and textures that i have up in my shop now.. The only way to correct it that ive found so far is to paint the background white in paintshop. Then when i upload it is right again.. But ive also had the problem of doing that, then when i log back in the next morning those pictures are grey background again. Anyone else having this problem? Havent heard anyone else mention this yet, but it is becoming a time consuming affair to keep editing them in paintshop and then having to reload them constantly...

Also earlier when i logged in my profile was completely blank. Nothing in it at all. I waited a while to see if it would eventually show my info, but it never did. So i logged out, waited a bit, and when i logged back in all was right again.

I have experienced this too. It seems that when Windows pops up a window while you are in fullscreen mode, it causes the client to crash. I'm not sure if it has been fixed either, so I've been avoiding fullscreen snapshots unless I know I've already made one and specified the save location (since the window doesn't pop up after the first time).

I've been having trouble the last couple of days with almost a lag-like experience with taking a snapshot. I take a picture and I freeze up for close to a minute, then the picture appears for me to save as texture or what have you..

Also, today after the update I'm unable to send a postcard because the option for my email is grayed out

Anyone else having this type of problems?
