Summary	0003945: [Windows] Create screenshots and worlds in the user's home directory somewhere
Description	Mentioned pre-Mantis, repeated here. I know Chris, you said this would be hard to do, but it really bothers me when apps store data in their install location. I really think it'd be better if you store world and screenshot data somewhere in my user directory, so I can back that up and be done with it. Other games do it, so I know you can too. :)

We store all the data in the install location, as with all of our other games and all our other data for this game. Having done it the other way and seen how confusing it was to players (pre 2.0), I have no intention of going back.
