Learn How to Make a Screenshot

[matrix2223]

I have went a long time without knowing how to do this. So now I want to pass it along the knowledge that I have found.

 

Hope folks find this useful, I only wish I knew it along time ago.

 

1 With the page displayed on your screen, press one of the following:

 

* Alt + Print Screen to capture the active window

* Print Screen to capture your full computer screen

 

2 Select Start > Programs > Accessories > Paint. The Paint application opens.

3 Press Ctrl + V to paste the screenshot into Paint. If you receive a message that says: "The image in the clipboard is larger than the bitmap. Would you like the bitmap enlarged?" click Yes. Adjust as you size and such as you see fit.

4 Select File > Save As. The Save As dialog opens.

5 In the Save in field, select a location to save the file, such as your Desktop.

6 In the File name field, type in a name for the bitmap.

7 In the Save as type field, select .bmp, .gif, or .jpg.

8 Click Save

DONE

 

Now wasnt that easy,

Sidenote: resizing paints display to the part of the screen you really want to show smallers the image when saving and might save information from public eyes.
