Step 1: Taking a screenshot.Press the Prnt Scrn (abbreviation varies per keyboard) button on your keyboard to copy a screenshot of what is on your monitor right now to your computer's clipboard. Step 2: Paste into graphics program.There are many choices on what program to use. One many people have is Microsoft Paint. One well known free one is GIMP - download here: www.gimp.org/downloads/When you open the program, open a new image and within the image click on Edit > Paste (ctrl + V). Step 3: Edit and save the file.After pasting the image into a new image file you'll want to edit it up to your liking. Blur what you want, remove, crop, etc. and save to your file type of choice. File > Save As Step 4: Upload the file.There are a lot of free image hosts out there to choose from and if you're a member of one, go ahead and use yours. If not, check out Photobucket.com (free and easy) Step 5: Link to your image.The image host that you used will give you a few options for linking other people to your image. You either need to use the IMG Code or the Direct Link. If you use the IMG Code, it comes exactly how you want it, so you'll just copy and paste it right into the forum post. If you copy the Direct Link, you'll need to post it using this code: [img]yourImageURLhere[/img] Credit: Joshua
