I do the classic "PrtScn" button, followed by pasting it into a new Photoshop image. Nothing special that I know about.

i think that most of are just pressing the PrtSc button and we just happen to have photoshop open cause we know thats what were gonna use to save it with.... so yeah......

i think Paint Shop Pro had a thing where it would automate screen captures... but i dunno.

(besides the PrtSc button r00lz anyways :D - you can press Alt-PrtSc to get a capture of just the active window for example)

Yeah I was using PSP for the automated screenshots.. but it doesnt let you capture the Taskbar. I forgot all about the Print Screen button. :roll: Thanks though, cause now I got it! :D

I was looking at all of you screen shots and noticed that only Dadink and I are the only ones who are not using the classic windows set up. From what I can tell is everyone who put up a pic but Wasted is using XP. but everyone is using the old boxes shap windows. Me I like my smooth windows. Also I hate having a lot of Icons on my desktop. The screen shots I put seem a little clutter to me. I have a few extra folders I had not deleted or moved yet. But I also like having some stuff on the desktop that I uses a lot (my folder my computer and what not.) I just having trouble finding the balnces I like but I am getting close.
Also I want to see mark's and Ryan's desktops

that XP look (tagged the 'Fisher Price look') really uses resources and makes your comp react slower overall. Besides.... its just eye candy.

blah blah blah......

It's basically the same thing as MS Plus! back on Windows 95/98. That or even just a gigantic DESKTOP THEME sitting on top of Win2000.

I don't use XP and I never will. It annoys the crap out of me. I've been running Windows 2000 since it came out and I'll stick with it. It will probably be the last version of Windows that I ever have on a system of my own.
:D

Me too. One of my dreams is to buy a muscle car from the mid to late 60s and completely restore it. Has to be larger than 350 cubes. 8) 440 Hemis are like my favorite thing in the world. But Shelby Mustangs are the sexiest looking of all of them. :P I'm on the prowl for a better picture of a Shelby Mustang, or some other orgasm inducing muscle car from that era. Any suggestions? :wink:
