Free Realms hits the 2 Mil Mark !!

Free Realms has hit the 2 Million mark !!
Of those users, 75% are under the age of 17, 46% under 13 and 1/3 are female gamers.
“In less than a month, Free Realms has captivated a core player base of tween and teen gamers, while also strongly resonating with MMO gamers,” said SOE president John Smedley.
“We wanted to create a game to play with our families and are excited to have hit the mark with our intended audience.”

In honor of this milestone, all current players will receive a “party pack” bundle of in-game items to help celebrate! The packs will be rolled out in stages over the next two weeks."

So with this announcement I'll bring you a report posted about some nice shortcuts and key commands you can use in Free Realms. Also it has the paths of where the Screen Shots you take are stored.

Here are some more useful keyboard commands to use:

Esc - Opens Game options and exit the game
F10 - Hides the graphical user interface
F12 - Screenshot
C - Opens the Jobs and Equipment window
I - Opens the inventory window
J - Opens the Job selection window
M - Brings up the Game Map
Num Lock - Autorun (really useful for traveling long distances!)
P - Opens the Pet Window
Spacebar - Jump!

Tab - Targets the nearest enemy in combat. Only works on enemies while in a combat instance -it does not select non-player characters (”NPC’s”) or other players
If you hit the Enter/Return key, the Dialogue.Chat window comes up - this is for things you want to speak to others in the game. Like IM, you may decide to say it out loud to a whole channel or privately message someone, or just speak to a group you have created or joined. In order to do this, add a slash ” / ” before what you want to say in text:
/tell This sends a private message or “whisper” only to another specific player. To use this command type /tell then the full player’s name in quotation marks./g or /group Sends a sends a message only to people in your group.

You can take screen shots while playing Free Realms with the following keys:

First remove the user interface so you only see the scenery (optional of course):Clearing the Interface: F10
Taking the Screenshot: F12
