Or you can use your digital camera and take a picture of it, but be sure to take the flash off because it will glare.

Also in 3.1 it was Alt+ Print Screen.

Heres another tip: If you dont want a screenshot of the entire screen and only the window you have active, use Alt+Printscreen instead.

There is and NT clipboard viewer in the I386 directory XP. It's named clipbrd.

Create a short cut to clipbrd on your desktop by right clicking on the file clipbrd select send to and then create shortcut on desktop.

Once you hit print screen or alt printsceen they can be viewed in the clip board by double clicking on the short cut.

and if you are on a mac, you can command + shift + 3 saves a picture of the screen to the finder. command+shift+4 allows you to drag out a selection, and saves a picture to the finder.

A cool April Fool's joke is, you can take a screenshot of your desktop...

and then set it as your wallpaper.

Drag all of your icons into a folder, so that the only icons on the screen are in the wallpaper, and watch as someone desperately tries to click on the "icons."
