Ever get tired of seeing "Sorry" constantly and wonder what a winning screen looks like? Now you can post your instant win screen shots here!!

It's fairly easy to do and I've detailed below the info on how to do it. If you have any questions or don't quite understand how to make it work private message me or post your question in the thread below and I will be happy to help get you going.

How to post a screen shot

1) Hit the screen print key on your keypad which will take a "screen shot" of your instant win.

2) Open your paint program on your computer. To find it click the start key, move the cursor to "all programs" and then to "accessories" and then click on "paint".

3) When the paint program opens chose "edit' and then "paste". It will paste your screen shot into the program. Next choose "save as" and then choose a name for your screen shot. Where it says "save as type" I generally choose PNG but you can save it as a JPEG or GIF if you like. Finally click the "save" button.

4) You will need somewhere to upload the picture to. If you don't have a place online to store photos you can use photobucket which is free and I use quite frequently.

To sign up for a free account go to http://www.photobucket.com

5) Upload your photo and copy URL where it is stored.

6) To post the screen shot reply to this thread and click the IMG(image) button and paste the URL(location of where your photo is stored online) of your screen shot and click the ok button.

Example: To post my screen shot of my Clorox instant win the URL at photobucket where my image is stored is

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v488/Tempest88/bleach.png

I would click on the "add reply" button to reply to this thread. Then I'd click on the "IMG" button and paste the above URL in the box and then click "ok". Next I would click on "add reply" and that's it I'm all done.

I was beginning to think the Digornio one was never going to let anyone win! Been trying every day on that one! Congrats on all the instants!

Whoops! What I "won" was a special offer. Wow, that screen sure looked like a winning screen, though. Thanks to Tempest for helping me figure out what the screen meant. Anyway, hooray for winners!

Sure it did, sure it did.

ok, tempest. so what is your secret? i have never gotten an instant one, even on sites where you can enter over and over again. i mean look at how many you have won. that is alot is there something in particular that you do to win? thanks in advance

I honestly don't have an answer or secret. I do work night shifts so I play on weekdays anywhere from 3 a.m. to 6 a.m. Weekends I play whenever I get around to it or have any free time. All I can say is what I keep mentioning in other posts, play every single day the contest is active. Ask anyone else like lil'shopper and they will tell you the same thing. You just have to be persistent. You can try varying the times you enter if you think that will make a difference. Winning times are computer generated so it just comes down to luck that you enter at the right time.
I prefer the instant win contest that have tons of prizes so that I have better chances at winning something even if it's just a free candy bar or small value prize. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you and try to pass some luck your way.

thanks for the well wishes

Gosh, Tempest-you're the luckiest person ever! I've played the same games, almost every night-religiously, for at least 6 months or so, and I haven't won a thing! Guess when you got it, you got it-you go!

Thanks dizi.
I KNOW there are other DealTaker members who win instant wins or sweepstakes drawings. I just wish I could get more of you to take a few minutes to post your screen shots here and your wins in the Official Wins Thread.
I seriously like seeing what you guys/gals are winning plus it gives encouragement to the rest of the members that they can too.
Good luck to all and start posting those wins!!

Now that I know how to take a screen shot I will post wins. Thanks I had no idea how to do it.

I won from V8
