Hi Tim.

will be glad to..

easiest way...

hit "Print Screen Button" on key board

open up microsoft paint program..its under ..start..programs...accessories...

click "edit"....then click "paste"..

then click "file"...then click.."save as"

put in a location on pc as you prefer and use file type as ..jpeg..

done


upload those pretty shots...lol

after you get the hang of this..theres better free programs out there that u can edit and add text, arrows, circles...and other cool stuff

good luck and show us that u got it

Tim, many people here use the Free Version of Screenhunter with very good results. Do a Google search for Screenhunter. This program was created by Wisdom Software.

This may make matching the breeder's cup classic easy by comparison. I downloaded screenhunter 5.1 and captured a file. I have attached it here.

16883

It looks kind of shabby. When I played with the magnification after capturing it, the file looked fine. But, when I view the attachment, it doesn't look so good.

Also, how do I get it to display in my message instead of just [ATTACH]16883[/ATTACH.

Many thanks all three of you for your help.

Tim,

You can also Preview your post before finally submitting it by clicking the 'Preview Post' button in the message editor - great for positioning your screenshots, correcting spelling, adding emphasis, etc
