I’ve noticed that some people have been having trouble with this so here’s your solution!!!

I’ll tell you Step-by-Step instructions on how to take pictures of your PC Screen!!!

First once your at the webpage of place on your computer that you want to take a pic of, you click on the Print Screen Key on your Keyboard.

IMPORTANT!!!

After that, don’t use COPY on anything!!!

Then open a picture editor like Microsoft Paint, by the way in my pictures i’ll be using Microsoft Paint…

Once you’re there, go on edit then click paste.

Then you’ll see your image in microsoft paint!!!

But if you want to select a certain part of your image…

Click on the rectangle in the top right of your icon toolbar thing…

After you click on the icon drag the rectangle arond what you want to keep of your photo.

Then right-click on your photo and click on copy.

Ok, now go to file in the top left corner of your screen and open a new page. It’ll be Blank, then go to edit and click on paste (like in the first photo)

And there you have it!!! If theres white space after you’ve pasted your final image you can just make your drawing pad thing smaller by draging the sides to where you want them to go. Like in the photo below…

(click and drag)

Then Save your Photo, and upload it onto your website to show your friends!!!

Happy ‘Photo Shooting’!!!

See ya

  11. September 21, 2008 at 9:41 am

    well it depends what your trying to upload it to, if its a wordpress, you go to create a new post then you go to upload a picture. (It doesnt actually say upload a picture, its a pic of a picture and you have to click on it! :D )

    for laptops:
    Press the fn key and then press the Sys Rq button. then just paste it into your picture editing software, edit it if you want, save as a .PNG, and upload!

    Hey, thank you very much for the page. But if there is white space in your pic, I know to drag it to the side, but what do you use to do it?

  21. November 17, 2008 at 6:02 am

    If you have a mac
    There is an easier way to do it
    Just simply press the keys in this order
    Command, Shift, 4
    Then select the area you want a photo of
    Then the pic will be on your desktop

    I have a Mac so I use “Grab”

  23. December 21, 2008 at 6:24 pm

    To take a screenshot on a mac, press Command+Shift+4 and select what you want to take a screenshot of. Then it already saves that so you can upload it to wordpress or whatever. If you dont want it to save, press Command+Control+Shift+4 and paste into Photoshop, GIMP or anything else you would use for editing pictures.

  24. December 22, 2008 at 7:25 pm

    Woo.Thanks on my old computer i had PC screen but not on my new conputer it has GIMP photo editor.

  25. December 31, 2008 at 12:19 pm
