@Dave P- Love that Bore Bora pic, if it's hi-rez would you mind putting it somewhere where I can save it?

Thanks Bryan, consider it the luck of the photo-gods

I actually have my Mt. Assiniboine photo package available here if anyone's interested.

That's a lot of icons Ron.

 

[Dave Poehlman]

Enjoy!

random movie posters, currently:

dead center on black, with icons to the side.

I'm an idiot, I don't know how to do a screen shot, but here's my wallpaper. I change it from time to time with pictures I take while fly fishing. This is the "Upper Falls" on the Ammonoosuc River in New Hampshire.

Here's my wallpaper, my daughter on her 1st birthday last fall...I couldn't figure out how to capture my desktop icons either!

I'll bet that cake didn't look like this a few minutes after the picture snapped.

Usually you just hit the prt scr button on the keyboard and it copies whatever is on the screen to the clipboard. Then you use photoshop (or similar) to load it up and save it to the correct format, jpg. You can then upload it to something like photobucket.com and copy the url here.

I just did mine...look at this mess!

I use Paint and Imageshack.us. Paint comes free with windows, and imageshack.us doesn't require you to sign up. I'm not sure if Photobucket has an instant upload thing like imageshack since I haven't used it in 2 years.

 

[Radioman970]

I've used it for about a year and a half. They must've impoved it since you used it. You do have to sign up but it's free. The uploads are pretty quick and can be used right away.

I use Paint Shop Pro X, but Paint ain't bad for this purpose. I had to do a "copy to new image" command and that created the clipboard capture of the desk to a new image. then I could shrink it a bit and save it. I'm not sure how it's done in Paint.

 

[Bob McLaughlin]

No, it didn't...in fact the baby appeared to become posessed as she ingested all that sugar!.

 

[BrettB]

It's typically movie related.

 

[bobbyg2]

I just paste it and save it as an .jpeg image. If I wanted to resize it, I just go into the "Image" menu and choose "Strech/Skew". I can then change it using %'s.

 

[Radioman970]

This is beyond sweet.

 

[Radioman970]

Couldn't be easier.

A few years ago I had no idea how to do it. But I had an app that would record movies of all desktop activity. So I'd do a short movie, then I'd run it on a video app that allowed me to take snapshots. Way too many steps!
