Can Anyone Help Me Take a Screenshot?

In summary, to take a screenshot on a PC, hit the "prt sc" button and then open up the program named "Paint". Next, choose the select button and select the stuff you want. Cut and open another new document, and then paste. Finally, crop and save as a jpg.

I know there's a way to take a picture of something you see on your screen but I don't know how to do that. Can anyone help me? Also, who do we email when we see consultants selling products on kijiji, craigslist etc? Is the same in Canada as the US?

Thanks in advance!
 
To take a screenshot (on a PC), hit the "prt sc" button that should be to the left of the delete button. Then open up the program named "Paint", you should find that under Accessories and paste it into a blank document. Once in Paint, choose the select button (it looks like a square with dotted borders) and select the stuff you really want, cut & open another new paint doc. It will ask you if you want to save the first doc, say no. Then in the 2nd paint doc, paste & then click on crop. Use the pull down to save as a jpg (which is NOT the default) and choose where you want to save the picture!

Wonderful, thank you Kristina! How do I 'paste' and could I do this right into the body of an email? I want to email the screenshot to PChef showing the ad that's on a fb yardsale site. This active consultant is regularly posting things for sale on this local site and it's getting rather annoying.

I hit shift-Prt Scr. And its location varies on different keyboards. Mine is above the backspace key.

Mine was actually on the top row beside the F12 key. Wierd how they can't all be universal like the rest of the QWERTY keyboard!
 
You're welcome! And, yes just attach it to the email you send in to home office. =D
 
[alt] [prtsc] will give you a shot of the active window, so you can get a screen shot of just what you want instead of the entire screen:
