You probably already know this stuff, but its still good info to post.
Posted by: occams_razor CTRL+Print Screen will capture the entire screen and copy it into the clipbaord. Alt+Printscreen will do the same thing, except only to the active window. From here open Paint or any other graphics program and Paste the image in with a CTRL+V. Nice to convert it to jpg from bitmap before upload'n it. Saves a lot of space.
Posted by: Phil (Bullrider) Dave, I downloaded the program. When I save a screen shot I have several options as what type of file to save it as. A few I recognize. .bmp, .jpg, and .gif Which type should I designate to save as? Phil
