Screenshots

[Harkin]

Never needed to take screenshots before but now I do. Anyone recommend a prog that works well in windows xp?

You just need to press the Print Screen button, then paste into a program of your choice - I use fireworks, but Paint is just as good for basic screen shots.

I did just walk out of kindergarten compared with Moby* & a few other people on this forum.

*Moby, not saying you're old, merely wise

Well after delving into pc's for so long u think I wud know these basic things, but I suppose theres things I know that some experienced ppl wudnt know, prolly kidding myself with that tho. But I defo learn something new everyday and it becomes more apparent also that the more u learn about pc's, the more u realise u dont know

Alt-PrtScn does this wacky thing where by the active window is captured and nothing else .

What Dorza said is a good thing to do, you rarely find a need to have the taskbar in picture. lol
