You can make them pressing F12 or the Prt Scr key on your keyboard. For me, they are saved in my home directory.

To show them here, you need to find a website that let's you (preferably for free :-) ) upload the images to that site (I use dropbox). Then you can get a copy of the link to those images. Press the blue Images link in your post, Copy/paste that line in a post and paste your link over the relevant part of the line. Use preview to check if it works.

On the windows version, they are saved in the bin version. You could also use imgur to upload them.

Is the location on windows configurable?
I'd rather screenshots were not mixed with the executables.
Thanks

That would be nice. For me it saves them on a totally wrong place.

. is the bin/ folder.
../ is the minetest folder.
../screenshots/ will create a new subfolder in the minetest directory and save the screenshots there.

Okay get this bro: There is no distinct place they are saved by default. Instead by default they're saved where ever your executable (or link to it) is. Why is this? Why you ask? Don't ask me.

No, they're saved in the current worknig directory. ~ on Linux, the executable's location in Windows, unless overridden by how you start the executable, or settings in the Windows shortcut.
