The easiest way to get a screen shot for me is this way

Go to the new board and pick a page to "take a pic of"
Hold down your Ctrl key and then hit Prnt Scr key. On my keyboard it is a little key above my delete and insert keys.
Open up Paint Program
Click on Edit and click paste
The screen shot should appear
If you hold down the left button on your mouse you can move the picture around in the box to get the portion of it that you want. Once you click on something, hit enter or anything else it remains where it is.
Click on Image and then attributes to change the size of the picture. My screen shot was adjusted to 6 X 6 or 7 X7 (Height and Width adjustments)

Click "SAVE AS" and save as a jpeg in the drop down. Then you can attatch it to a reply like any picture.

You can take a screen shot of anything appearing on your monitor :wink:

That's OK. Because the file is larger than 600 pixels in width, the board resized it for the post. But I can see everything in the original file.

Thanks.

Hmm same thing... My resolution is 1024 X 768 but I only have 32 bit color...I wonder if that is why?

LOL we posted at the same time...thanks for letting me know why! I had never had a problem with this before.

I don't like it at all. Too much glare, font is awful. I have mature eyes and to me, this is a downgrade. I have really enjoyed this forum for the year I've been reading it. I can READ the old forum. The new one is way to hard on my eyes. I hate to think I'm going to have to find another forum.

All the glare is gone for me now, looks much better. Been looking around over there, and even my bookmarks are there, good deal :)

I think the look was an improvement from the beginning and it looks find now. I don't know if you will ever please everyone.

I am sure we all appreciate you trying.

Thank You.

Well, we were asked to look and critique. I gave my personal opinion. *I* have a hard time reading it and like the old one better. I am entitled to my opinion too.
