Posting a screenshot when describing a problem is sometimes helpful. To do this:

  • Set up the programs the way you want them to appear in the screenshot.
  • Press the Print Scrn button on the keyboard, normally to the right of F12.
  • Open an image editing program such as Photoshop, MS Paint, or The Gimp.
  • Press Ctrl+V to paste the screenshot into the program.
  • Save the screenshot.
  • Close the image editing program.
  • Go to ImageShack and upload the file you saved.
  • Copy the code given in "Hotlink for forums (1)" and post it in the thread where you reported your problem.
