Lala,

Yeah, it looks like nothing happened–which drove me crazy at first–but for me it actually is there on the clipboard when I try to paste into another program. I am an academic working on presentation about a particular film and just hit “print screen” and then paste into word. It’s magically there.

Good luck and thanks for the tips!

OK Check it out..

There’s a small program called VuePrint Pro (http://www.hamrick.com). Download it and install.

On the menu bar click on Slideshow scroll down to Clipboard event and select Save as JPG, then hit F5 or go to Options Save Options.

If you dont save in Options you’ll have to repete the steps above.

Now you can adjust the window size of VuePrint perferably make it small and out of the way.. Now everytime you Alt + Printscreen your image will automatically be pasted in ViewPrint not only that it will also automatically save your JPG with a random name(4321432.jpg). You can find your pict in the \windows directory.

Im guessing it defaults to the Windows directory seeing how thats where the .exe file is.. You can change where your pictures get saved by simply going to the File > Save as on the File menu.

TIP: (dont minimize ViewPrint to your taskbar when printscreening it will crop retarded).

Another cool feature in VuePrint is the Utilities Menu… at the bottom of the menu there’s a Configure Options. You can resize the Open & Save Window by adjusting the WOpen & HOpen / WSave & HSave changing the value on each from 1000 (1000 being full screen) to Width 400 / Height 350

Width of File|Open… dialog box
(units are 0 to 1000) <– change the Value to 350
Height of File|Open… dialog box
(units are 0 to 1000) <– change the Value to 400

I hope this doesnt confuse anyone.. because its really easy.. :)

This didn’t work for me either, but using Windows Media Player Classic, I simply pressed

File > Save Image

Windows Media Player Classic – What a great program

i found a freeware prog called Gadwin Print Screen you can basically take a picture of your desktop and you can set the prog to save directly or you can control every step of the save process
i just used this program and my photo editor to grab stills of musician Billy Joel from a video of him that i had, i have the prog set up so i just need to hit 1 button, Print Screen (Pnt Scrn)and it saves as a jpeg file or the format of your choice then i can crop it in my photo editor, Gadwin Printscreen as far as i know is freeware and it doesnt have any adware or anything bad but please scan it just to be safe as always, Google “Gadwin Print Screen”

I have the same question as Poster number 7, August 18th, 2005.
I paste it on paint and save the captured image but when I look at it again and open it, I only see blank space.
Can someone please tell me what’s wrong? I unchecked ‘use overlays’, and put the slider to ‘none’ – but I have the same problem!! HELP!
