    Press ‘PrtSc’ and paste it into Microsoft Paint :D

  2. On the screen you want to copy, hit the “Print Screen” button along the top of your keyboard. Then got to Word (where you are typing your article) and hit Ctrl and “V” at the same time.

  3. Some games already support this feature, just check the manual. If not, a popular program to use is FRAPS:

  4. on your keyboard there is a button that says print screen. press it, than open paint and click paste. it will take a snapshot of your screen and paste in as an image.

  5. press print screen button on your cpu right side

    then paste in ms paint then save

    then upload

  6. while playing, pause play and save past the screen to your favorite photo software after pausing the game and out of the game.

  7. If you have a PC you hit Print Screen. Its a button on the top right corner of a keyboard. After you hit that, open a software application such as Microsoft Paint, Microsoft Word, or any programs that supports pasted pictures. Then Save It :)
    Good Luck With Those Games.

  8. The same way you make screen shots from any other program.

    What? You don’t know how to do that? Well, then check your operating system’s documentation for details. All modern operating systems can do this, but you didn’t say what OS you’re using, so I can’t be more specific.
