call me what you want but how on earth do you take a screen shot of your table and save it? is is a jpeg? I mean it's certainy an image file, but I have never been able how to "take that picture", let alone save it.
I'm really not a dummy, just unimformed I guess. I was just reading a post someone made about 2 players, same name except for punctuation at an UB table, and he had a screen shot. Made me think I could get hep with that here.
thanks guys/gals

Fred

heh thats so cool. It worked. Thanks again zorba

Oops, just realized I deleted the wrong thread... Sorry about that. Seems to have worked out anyway.

The link probably says it but the fastest way is to press print screen, open paint, press ctrl + v, file-->save

If you want to alter the pic (ie. get rid of your background shiz and just have the table) then just drag a box, ctrl + c then ctrl + v in a new window.

well an answer (i've no interest with that little prog) but try it

Snip, and you're done!
What is Snippy?

How often have you carefully selected some text from a Web page and copied it to an email message? Snippy makes this a snap! Simply click on the little Snippy icon in the taskbar notification area, and mark out the region of the screen that you want to copy — that's it, you're done! The cut-out image will now be in your clipboard, and you can paste it in another application.
If you are cutting out a portion of an Internet Explorer window, the URL will also be copied to the clipboard; this makes it very convenient to select something interesting on a Web site and send it out in an email message.
Using Snippy

Click on the Snippy icon – mouse cursor changes to a pen – mark an area of the screen – the marked area is now in your clipboard.
If you want to select a rectangular area, just hold down the Shift key while dragging. You can configure some things like the color of the border and so on by right-clicking on the Snippy icon in the taskbar. One of the things you can do here is to set a keyboard hotkey for activating the capture mode.
Snippy also supports multiple monitors. If you have a dual-mon set up, you can use Snippy to grab images off either or both monitors.
Installing Snippy

There is no install program. Snippy is a very small program; just 84 KB. Simply save the Snippy executable in some convenient location on your hard-drive. We also recommend that you add a shortcut to your Startup folder so that Snippy starts up automatically when you turn on your computer.

foe windows users hit alt+print screen then go to paint and under edit paste image

Do not save as bitmap as that takes up more space on your hard drive but save as a jpeg. Bitmap is also harder to find than a jpeg. It will be in your my pictures folder,if it's something you are going to want to post give it a low number so it is at the beginning of your file. I use ,, alot as that makes it first in my folder. Most pictures are in jpeg and are easily manipulated and sized.

A bit confused?

I tried the Prt Screen and open paint as suggested
and it just copied the internet explorer page on cardschat
but I could not get it to copy this sick ass bad beat
I just took by a one outter on Poker Stars.. and help?
