Creating screenshot images

[MiamiensisWx]

How do you create a screenshot image of anything you are viewing on your computer? I've tried to accomplish this for quite some time but with no luck. How do you make a screenshot image such as this one for example or any others? Thanks. Just asking for some advice.

Assuming you're on a Windows PC...

Hit Print Screen to get the shot

Open MS Paint

Paste the image (CTRL+V) into paint and save as a JPG file.

Testing...



Mission accomplished.



Thanks!

The only prooblem is that you're using IE. Get Firefox. Your computer will thank you.

I already have Firefox (though not 2.0 yet). I use both Internet Explorer and Firefox.

How do I get the latest Firefox version (2.0)?

Thanks for the link, Mike. How do I uninstall my current Firefox so I can download Firefox 2.0 instead?

No need to uninstall. The new version will upgrade/override your old version.

Oh, thanks for the clarification!

I just installed 2.0 Firefox, yet I see no change from the previous version. It also doesn't state that it's 2.0 now that I've installed it. Any help?

Go to Help | About. There aren't that many visible upgrades, although there are much more securities (anti-phishing) plus spell-checker on internet form and more.

Oh, good. I just checked, and it says it is indeed 2.0. Thanks for the advice.
