Prnt Scrn (in the cluster of three above the arrow keys).

Then open PSP/Paint/PS/whatever and paste it in (ctrl v or just Edit > Paste).

Voila. Be sure to save it in .jpg form.
Have fun on the open /¦\

I have this pic up, no icons. It was quicker to just link it off their website than to upload my actual desktop (which is just the pic and my start menu...)

I just can't help myself. I still think I will end up with one of these one day; I just can't get over em! I haven't even sat on one yet, but I'm just drawn to it. I've only seen one in person, and I thought it looked awesome...

I love the look of the V-Max. The 2005 20th anniversary edition in my favorite. :D

When I press Print Screen nothing happens. Is there something I'm missing?

Nothing is supposed to happen.

It just takes a picture of whatever is on the screen at the moment and puts it on the clipboard.

You have to paste it into a paint program, or a word document, or some other program, for it to do anything.

No window or anything pops up.

Open your picture program and then minimalize it. Then click CTRL and PrtSC at the same time. Then reopen your picture program. Then save it as a j-peg to a place like a picture folder.
