How do you take a screenshot?

Alright, I am an idiot :P but I figured someone would give me answer faster than if I filtered through every single screenshot post.  Thank you in advance.

Don't worry about it, we all start somewhere ;)

Press the 'print screen' button, open up your favorite photo editor, and paste ;)

A more convienent way to get screenshots while in the flightsimulator is to download a screenshot 'grabber', a program which will automatically save a screenshot to a file without having to manually use an editor to save to file

http://www.irfanview.com/main_download_engl.htm seems to be a good one...
It also let's you listen to music and edit pictures.  ;)

www.fraps.com is a good one.
It can take videos as well
It also can change the type of picture you take. like .bmp , .png and .jpg

Hope this helps :D
