There are a total of 13 Photos to obtain during the course of the game, only 12 of which can actually be obtained. Please understand that this guide, while specific in it's instructions, is intended for players with a general knowledge of the game. ============================================================================== 3. - Map ============================================================================== One [ ] = one square on the game map.

Connect a GameBoy Printer to your Gameboy/Gameboy Color/Gameboy Advance. 2. Turn on your Gameboy and go to the Photo Shop. 3. Open your Photo Album, select the picture you want to print and press the A button (make sure your Gameboy Printer is turned on). PC: 1. Open Link's Awakening DX in an emulator (you'll need a Gameboy emulator and a Link's Awakening DX ROM). 2. Go to the Photo Shop and pick the picture you want to print. 3. Switch to full screen (or just hit the Maximize button) and take a screen shot (push the 'print scr' key, almost all PC keyboards have one). 4. Open MSpaint, Edit > Paste. 5. There might be a little distortion due to maximizing the screen. This can be fixed by shrinking the copy down or shrinking the emulator window and taking another screen shot. When you're happy, print that puppy out. ============================================================================== 6. - Q&A ============================================================================== Q: Will not getting a photo affect the out come of the game? A: No, not in anyway. Q: Emulators? A: Programs that act in the same way as a game system. For the photo method I listed above, I'd recomend VisualBoyAdvance, which you can find here: http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/gba/ Q: ROMs? A: A copy of a game that you can download. You'll have to find these on your own. NOTE: Do NOT e-mail me about ROMs. I will not distribute them, nor will I tell you where to find them. Q: I found another way to use the photos. Can I send it to you? A: Sure. I'll add it and credit you for the find. Q: Might you have some previews of the photos?
