I assume you mean a computer screen ... Click the "Print Screen" button on your keyboard Open an image editor and paste there - if you don't have one, use Paint Save the image to your preferred image format - Jpeg, giff, tiff, png. |

If you have a Mac: Shift+Command+3 = screenshot Shift+Command+4 = crosshair to select user defined area. Shift+Command+4 ... then hit the spacebar, then click the mouse = camera icon appears. Move it over any icon, window or image to take a screenshot and then click. Image should appear on your desktop and you can either edit with Photoshop or paste it directly into a word doc or upload directly to your web site. Hope this helps. |

We've had a Windows explanation, and now a Mac one. Here's a Linux one  * Hit Print Screen on your keyword ("Prnt Scrn") * Select "Save" on the options that appear. Save it to wherever you want. * If needed, upload it to your site (via cPanel's file manager or FTP), or via a free image hosting site |

One addendum...Many laptops have the "Prtsc" button tied to the "FN" function key. You will need to hit this like a shift key to activate the print screen function. Gimp is a great open source and free graphics program if you don't have one to paste you screen shots into... can't post a link but it lives at gimp dot org.. |
