Many of the pictures I post on forums were taken by my pc.
I do this by using the snipping tool 103560<--- this was also taken by snipping tool.


HOW TO:
1. click on the windows button103563
2. either type in "snipping tool" or look for it in "all programs"
3. when you click on it, it will have a prompt that says; "new", "options", "cancel" you should just be able to click on any point on the screen and drag to the end point.
4. after this is complete you have the choice to either "save as" or you can have fun with it and draw crazy stuff on the pic
5. post on facebook or something idc
6. your welcome

MAC VERSION COMING OUT SOON STAY POSTED

On mac, we press
"Command + Shift + 3" to take a screenshot of the entire screen
"Command +Shift + 4" then click and drag a box around selected area to take a screenshot of.

The screenshot gets saved to Desktop

Edit takes 2 second, literally,

As for your prntscrn button I'm sorry but I suppose you can use the long method posted at top >.<
