habe you disabled Anti-Aliasing?
Do you run the game as admin?

Good to know because I just saw two NPC's sharing the same bed.. two guys of all things.. and I didn't know that two NPCs of any gender could share the same bed.. so now I can take a screenshot of it and prove it to you all!

You modified the wrong .ini file. Oblivion_default.ini is located in Oblivion's program folder. When somebody runs Oblivion for the first time with their profile, Oblivion_default.ini is copied to their "My Documents\My Games\Oblivion" folder as Oblivion.ini and THAT is where the game gets its settings from. Any changes to Oblivion_default.ini will not be seen by anyone until your Oblivion.ini is deleted or you login as a new user on your computer.

I followed the .ini instructions (and while I was at it, disabled border regions). I see "screenshot created" after the screen freezes for a few seconds, but I can't find the screenshot. Pasting into Paint doesn't work.

I just watched some video on youtube how to take screenshots in Oblivion. Though it took me like forever to figure out that I changed the number in the wrong ini. file so I just took screenshots with Fraps. Now I take screenshots with both.

doesen't work for me

Per LHammond's link on the first page, did you turn off anti-aliasing before attempting to take screens?

For all Win7/Vista users, simple solution to the SS issue. Click on the "compatibility files folder". They will be right there.

When I take screen shots, the bitmap images come out very small and low-resolution. What might be the reason for this?
