I wanted to take a screen shot of a map so I can outline my favorite route in my town.  |

An easy way is to just press the "print screen" key. Then, go to paint and "paste" it. "Paste" is under "edit" in Paint. I actually had to look that up because I forgot.

I hit shift, control and the number 4 click the mouse (holding it down) an crosshairs pattern shows up, you sweep over the image (kind of covered in a light gray) and release. You them have to upload to photo bucket etc. Hope this helps. Like this.  |

My Windows 7 came with "Snipping Tool". Have it locked to the task bar. Open, left click, hold, drag selection box then save. Saves as a JPEG, PNG, TIF, GIF files. Then do whatever you like with it.  |

Well I con't know on W7 on XP depending on my computer I am using, I have to press the Shift key OR the CNTRL key AND the Print Screen/Sys Rq key at the same time. I then open a photo editing software and open a new file then my software has me adjust the size of the new file and I can press the Edit button, scroll down to paste and I have a new photo file that can be cropped to size and modified in any way I want. I use a free program you can download called Gimp, it is close to the equivalent of Photo Shop it does take some learning.
Once you get a photo saved I suggest putting it in a word processing document for printing.
