Easy in iDevice (iPhone/iPad) but more difficult on Android.
With iDevice just briefly press both the home and power buttons quickly at the same time, this saves an image to your device, which can then but moved onto an web photo service (eg Photobucket) using any of the numerous apps.
For android.... Its difficult, because i believe you have to "root" your phone, which would invalidate your warranty. If you're still interested check out google. search for 'android phone screen capture'. Be very careful though, I think there may possibly be a risk of damaging the phone involved. I'm sure someone else will be able to confirm this.

Yeah android needs to be rooted. Not a majorly difficult thing to do.
If you do it, the app you want is called shoot me, pretty much shake the phone and it takes a screen shot.

You can use ddms is you have the android-sdk installed
or
you can also install applications like shootme from the market. These are free.
If you have gingerbread (the HTC desire has an official 2.3 release - if you haven't got the OTA yet, you can install the leak), you don't need root.

Look in my thread on how to post pics on forum all the info is there
and on some devices shootme will work without root but others will not.

Lol I dont know about it blowing up but i heard that it takes away the warranty, kindof like when you jailbreak an I-Device.

It won't blow up, but some people overclock their cpus.
Since some of these as well are amateurs, they use unsafe voltages which overheat the cpu core. That's all there is to it.
If you use a custom rom, be sure to use one from a chef who has enough rep.
You can always return your device to stock-state by flashing a stock HTC rom on it.
