    see the wins I hope to have one to post!!!!
    Thank your for your help with this. CeeGee

    Smile

    Just press the "PrintScrn" button on your keyboard.
    Then open a picture program or even MS Word will work and use the Edit/Paste (or press Ctrl + V) function to insert your screenshot.
    Save the file

    It has been brought to my attention that there are some people who don't know how to make a screenshot by using the tools available in windows.

    Here's a little guide which I made for those who feel completely challenged when it comes to take a screenshot.

    When saving, at the very bottom where it says "save as type", select "JPEG". That should save you alot of space.

    again with the screenshot thang

    i'm no geek but i'm a fairly persistent tinkerer......the screenshot thing has been driving me nutty as for some reason my paint program won't allow me to save as jpeg or png. so now i'm doing a 30 day free trial with one of the programs from c-net. i'm not wild about the name of this product (CaptureWizPro) but it seems to do the trick nicely. no telling what happens at the end of my 30 days.

    Heres how I do it.....maybe it will help..

    When playing slots and you see a screen you want captured here are the steps I use:

    1)hit print screen
    2) go to start button,programs,accessories,paint (not the newfangled one)
    3) open paint, right click on screen, click on paste
    4) go to save as, type in a name on bottom where it says file name, then go to drop down arrow and choose jpeg or jpg below file name and on top choose from drop down arrow, save it on desktop )easier to find for uploading I find)
    5)go to the menu bar on top of paint and go to image, stretch/skew and change it to 75% for both boxes. Hit save.

    I keep the paint program open while playing so all I have to do is just a few keystrokes when I want to save anything....such as, printscreen, paste,save as, stretch/skew , save and then I am done with the next one..no need to close out paint every time.

    Hope this helps! Gets easier and faster after a while...the main thing I find is the ...save as is very important to do after pasting and before the stretch/skew and then the save after the stretch skew.
    Today is the Tomorrow, you thought about Yesterday...so live as IT IS your last tomorrow!

    silcnlayc,

    Excellent straight forward post

    Not wanting to steal your thunder but there is also a great little program that free, that I've been using for years. <please removed xxx from URL> xxxhttp://www.irfanview.com

    You can have it running in the background whilst playing online and when you wish to take a screen cap you simply push a pre-defined button and whamo your screen cap is there.

    You simply minimize your casino software <download> or maximize the irfanview proggy <browser based casino play> and your screen cap is ready to be adjusted to 640x480.

    Can be saved in many formats <though *.jpg> is the best. You can also decrease the compression ratio which in jpg format gives you a smaller file size.
