Linux : You should look into .openarena hidden folder in your user folder. In Windows, I don't know.

The screenshots are located in linux at: /home/username/.openarena/screenshots

The "." at the front of any folder in Linux machines causes it to be hidden. So you'll have to "Show Hidden Files" first. :)

use cg_useScreenShotJPEG "1" to save your next screenshots as jpeg

get irfanview. it is freeware (even open source?) and displays all common picture formats.
and it is quite fast :) and you can convert to other formats.

/cg_useScreenshot? Is that really a Q3 variable?

It usually is similar to /bind F11 screenshotJPEG

That over-rides the default .tga on F11 and outputs as .jpg

dunno if it's a q3 variable, i found it in my config, might be from a mod or something

i also have the /bind F11 screenshotJPEG variable, so maybe that's what makes it work
