v1.0.3
Using in game screenshot key combo ctrl-alt-p. It's been overwriting old screenshots. I'm guessing it keeps a counter for numbering the files and it gets reset between reboots.
This was bad for me because I had been screenshoting those songs that you must remember and use later (whale song/ghost boy song) only to find them overwritten. In fact it almost game broke it for me since I put the game down for a few days and couldn't remember that ghost boy song to free Li, and couldn't get back into the sunken city without Li to see it again. I had to look the song up online.

I never knew that the ghost boy song was the one you used to free Li. :o I just looked at the colors of the spirits, and accidentally found the right combination. O0 My only advice to you would be to move each screen shot to another folder as you take them.

I did try every combination of the spirit colors before looking online. One spirit color is different. The song is green purple red orange, and the spirits are green purple red turquoise.

Why don't you open the screenshots and rename/save them to another file, that way it won't matter if the originals get over written?
highlight your 'My Documents' file >File>New>folder, name it whatever you want and copy and paste into it any of your screencaptures and the right click on each picture file and rename it.

I use a 3rd party screenshot application called Gadwin (http://www.gadwin.com/printscreen/), have used it for years and very configurable. I set it up to do a single hotkey during gameplay for fullscreen and a selectable rectangle during normal computer use. you can retitle and format the file output to your own needs

I use Paintshops 'capture mode' it has loads of options :D lol
