EDITING
There's already a thread on HOW to take the screenshot in game

 

1. Take a screenshot of the scene in game, press f7 3 three times to get rid of the HUD and nametags above heads. Take that screenshots.

2. Take a screenshot of the chat w/ black behind it via /bbc or /blackbehindchat 

3. Load up photoshop, load the scenery scene/screen and then add the screen with the text w/ the black behind it.

4. Click the layer w/ the chat, double click it and fade the black.

5. Duplicate layer w/ chat

6. Merge down the duplicate layers

7. Add stroke 1

8. Resize chat to not cover the whole screen but 75% of chat.

Editing/adding video soon

Screenshots

Spoiler

Take a screenshot of the scene, here is an example of the scene screenshot I took.


Load up photoshop and do 800 width x 600 length
Paste the scene screenshot into photoshop and adjust it to your liking.

 

Take the screenshot w/ the chat that has black behind it for easy editing and bring it into photoshop. Adjust so the whole chatbox is showing and the chat is a good size: 

Now what you do is crop out the chat from said picture and bring it to a new layer
Select the part of the screenshot that has the chat and black behind it, CTRL + X, delete that layer and paste it. CTRL + V


Now to get the black behind the chat gone, copy what I'm doing in this gif:

 

With this, sometimes you gotta play with the value and test it out. I find a sweet spot is like 26 on that layer.

It's important, to set the stroke to 1 and hit set as default.

Adjust the lines in the RP to cover max 75% of your screen. DONE.
 

If you want to make the quality shittier on purpose, save it as a JPEG and put the quality to ~4.
