How do you post screen shots?

[SCShell]

Hey there,

While I am thinking of it, how do you post screen shots? The folks here that are nice enough to help, usually have nice screen shots of dialog boxes and the like. I have tried, but nothing is active when I have a dialog box up.

Thanks in advance
Steve

Hit the print screen button for the entire desktop.

Hit the alt and print screen buttons for a specific window.

This places the image capture to the clipboard.

Paste it into your favorite program and attach to your posts.

...you can also use some (free) software such as PrintKey 2000 (http://www.webtree.ca/newlife/printkey_info.htm) which allows you to be a bit more selctive about what portion of the screen you print and save it out as an image file in one go without needing to paste it into something too. I find this much more useful than the straight print screen keyboard button.
