I’ve seen so many people take photos rather than screencaps! In their defense, it’s easier to fake a screencap, so this makes it more authentic I guess.
@gwoodard8 – Press the Fn + Prt Sc (Print Screen) buttons (I think this works for most computers, if not it’ll have a similar button). Paste into any image editing program (even Paint will work). Edit/save.
Samwise has it right. Just hit the “Prt sc” button. I’ve actually never even noticed the “Fn” button before until ifitwerentformyhorse pointed it out, but I’ve never used that to print screen.
@samwise – I always save it as a PNG because it doesn’t lose resolution that way, as far as I can tell anyway. It takes up more space than a JPEG, but less than a Bitmap.
Command Shift 3 – whole screen
Command Shift 4 – drag to select an area to capture
Command Shift 4, then the space bar – click to take a screen cap of the current window that the mouse is hovering over.

In the newer versions of Windows there’s a program called Snippit under Accessories that helps you select certain parts of the screen to capture, its a lot easier to use than the print screen & paint.
I want to feel bad for Stephanie. But who the hell doesn’t know how to take a screen cap nowadays?

Nice lamebook, so posts that criticise you are getting moderated now?

I set the over/under at 30 minutes from now until someone posts Suroor’s member page.

Nothing I wrote as a comment was moderate….
I’m a 19-year-old college student and I have no idea how to screen cap. Anyone wanna enlighten me?
Internet Explorer fail.

@ gwoodward8
Step 1. Click the “Print screen” key.
Step 2. Click “paste” on MS Paint.
Step 3. Save the image in Paint as a JPEG.
Done.

If your “prt sc” is with another button (mine shares a key with “insert,” don’t you know), you’ll need the fn key.

My “Prt Sc” key shares it with “Sys Rq”. Well, the jist of what to do is the same.
