How To: Create Screenshots of Twitter Tweets Without A Software

Written on June 19, 2010 by in how-to

If you want to post screenshots of your favorite tweet or other twitterers tweer onto your blog but you don’t have a software. Don’t worry, I found four other ways that you can screenshot twitter tweets without a software. The methods are pretty easy as well.

All you have to do is making sure you have the link of a URL of the tweet.

For my example I will be using a link like this to show you.

Method 1. Changing URL Link

http://twitter.com/AskAaronLee/status/16531466734

change to…

You will get a link like below

After getting the link, upload to your website using “from URL” if you’re on wordpress

Method 2: QuoteURL

Copy and paste the URL link to the website and you will get the HTML. Just copy and paste it onto your blog and you’re done.

Method 3. Blackbird Pie

I couldn’t get blackbird pie to work on my wordpress. This is the outcome. I found it worked on more simpler wordpress themes. Tell me if it worked for you. The method is same like the above, copy and paste the URL of the tweet.

Method 4: Kwout

Like the methods above, copy the URL tweet and paste it. After that the web is ask you to choose the area of which you want to cut. After cutting you will get two types of formats. One is a URL link and another is a HTML format. If you copy the HTML format you will get something like the above.

Go ahead, try it and have fun doing it.

Alternatively, you can just capture a screenshot using the Print Screen button and Paint or another photo editing software. :)

Hmmm :) Well nice ways to take screen shots , I have also found few twitter signature generators which are dynamic but if you remove the hyperlink part from it then It will be static :)

Can you post HTML's on blogger? If you can then you can do all of them. They are basically HTML's that you can paste on blogs =D
