Basic

First you need to know what type of screenshoot you want to do:
Normal Game - with crosshair and gunmodel
second type - only weapon
third type - only screenshoot - no weapon and crosshair.

Prepairing

Ok.
If you know what you want to do now you need to do it.
If you want to disable crosshair you need to enable portal console in settings.
Now press ~ and type "cl_drawhud 0" for crosshair and "r_drawviewmodel 0" for weapon.
TO enable it again change 0 to 1.

Creating and Uploading

To create screenshoot press F12.
Now close game and wait to screenshoot window.
Choose screenshoots and press upload.
Done :D

Does this work in all Source games?

Thanks, I was trying to remove the crosshair.

You actually don't have to close the game to upload it, just press ctrl-tab and hit the screenshots button :D
BTW I use crosshair 0 as well for the crosshair.... Just because I can :P

cl_drawhud 0 is more helpful IMO because if you forget to turn it on so in the next Portal 2 powerup you'll have it again.

I use 'crosshair 0' to get rd of the crosshair.

@quaternary
host_timescale 6 bugged my game and when I changed it back it was the same :P

@Redstoncraft
Wrong, Portal 2 is a place of sharing things and having fun, look at the community, we want maps.
