If you have never taken a Screen Shot before or put an image on the web, dont worry it is a very easy thing to do. Below I will help guide you through the entire process in a step by step fashion.
Step 1 - Taking the Screen Shot
To Take a Screen Shot simply ensure the image you want to take a screen shot of is on the screen and then press Ctrl & Alt & Prt Sc all at the same time. Doing this will copy what ever image you have selected to your clip board.
Step 2 - Save the image to your PC
To save the image to your Pc you will need to open an image editing program, if you are using windows 'paint' is a simple program that you are very likly to have on your computor. You can open it by clicking Start > Programs > Accessories > Paint next you need to paste the image from your clip board. To do that click Ctrl V at the same time. Upon doing that you will see the image you had copied appear in the main window.
Next you will need to save the image to do this Click File > Save As and then choose what you want to call your image and save it to a location that you will easily find.
