« on: February 10, 2011, 03:37:54 AM »
What is a good screen shot software? I've been looking at Winsnap. Good or bad? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

try the button on yr keyboard that will be something like 'PrintScreen-SysRq' (usually find up near top right-hand corner).

click this key, then open MS Paint, go the drop-down menu under the Edit tab, and click 'paste'.

This will give you a snapshot of the whole screen. Save as a jpeg file that you can subsequently crop or re-size, re-sample, etc..

FastStone Capture,,,even better than the one that comes with Win7

Well worth the 20 bucks for the program.

I was asking about winsnap because it's free, and I like free.
The reason I posted it here was...I trust you guys. Trust goes a long way.
And not one of you has ever let me down.

Trust has nothing to do with the forum that you post it in and this clearly shouldn't be in the avast! Free/Pro/Suite forum, but the General forum where you would have got the same response, trustworthy or otherwise. That is the point that Logos is making, this shouldn't be in the avast! Free/Pro/Suite forum.
