Okey, this might well be a stupid question, but can anyone tell me how I go about taking screenshots of the game?

I thought just using the printscreen button would do the trick, but for some reason I then get a screenshot of some other program I have running, or if I close everything, just from the empty desktop.

Start dominions in window mode and the printscreen button should work fine.

That's good news at least. Now what do I do to start it in window mode?

Preferences (or Options in game) -> Video Preferences -> unmark Fullscreen

Well, damn me. I went to preferences, guessing that might be where I should be, and I just looked over it.

Thanks Calmon.

Another useful method is to use ALT+PRINTSCREEN to capture only the window that has the current focus.
