You should just be able to change the format of it.
When saving a file you can select what format you want to save it as.

So you take a screen shot put it paint then press save, and choose the right format, then go to post and upload the file.

Me and my bud also have a similar problem, but with civs. When we play online sometimes random groups of over 100 civs will just appear randomly. Then they will stand out and block traffic. Anyone else have this happen?

I think there's a way to reduce the amount of people on the map but again you would both have to have the same changes.

Hi, Im playing the new 2.0 mod, and I absolutly low it. Thanks Hoopah.

But there is a small problem with the traffic, it jams up sometimes,, and I have read that several have this problem.
But I was thinking, an easy way to solve this is to enable tow trucks to tow any car or truck they want to.

Is this possible in some way? How can I do this?

no. They can only tow cars that are:
A-exploded/burned
B-stolen

In the editor you can edit certain things on cars one of which is 'towable'.
But I'm not sure if this works for all the cars.

not true

I tow a lot of cars way(at wall mart).
To make more room for fire truck, and limit the change of explosions when my FF's are in there
(Please note, the cars are intact)
i also do the same at the gas stations
And basically any car crowed place on the map.

(edit) cars that drive around can't be towed unless burned or stolen.

ok, i forgot to mention parked cars..oops. Common sense?
Let me rephrase then:
You can tow...
Vehicles; including but not limited to, cars, trucks, big rigs, commercial vehicles, that are parked (never moved, never will move) burned or exploded or damaged in anyway,i.e. car crash where car did not go on fire. You can also tow stolen cars or cars used by an person who is now in police custody. and you can edit files..

If you have a good computer. EM4 LA MOD works fine.
For me, the mod loads in exactly 1 minute and four seconds. And my freeplay maps loads in 39 seconds.

My advice: Dont install too much crap on your computer and it will work fine.

if you tow away a vehicle and take it off map, does it respawn?

If you tow a car that is parked, then later it will respawn in that same spot.

If I have a vehicle that gets stucks or will not move, I have a pd unit arrive and shoot the vehcile until it starts smoking, then have the pd officer use an ext to put out the fire and then tow it away. Maybe not the best action, but it wokrs for clearing the traffic jams.
