Many will say to just press print screen, then go to your favorite paint program and paste the image.

This is quick, but it only allows for one shot at a time to be taken.

Google "GrabClipSave".  That's what I use and love.
Great edit, Bob.


Google it.

Yes, having to pause and minimize, open paint, paste, save, and all that is rather time consuming and a pain in the @$$. :P

Oh ya, I use the same thing to get my screenshots. More reliable than many other programs for this. Gets allows you to take shot after shot and not worry about like accidently hitting the print screen button (which is way too close to backspace) again or copying and pasting something somewhere else (like the Internet) and losing it.

Hi Cheif,

I use !QUICK to capture screenshots while flying, and recommend it to everyone.

You can find it at www.etrusoft.com

Have a look, does everything you need and does it without using too much CPU speed.

Hope it helps

Regards
