How to take screenshots ?

1. Attach your image file (preferably as a jpg or gif) to your forum post.

2. Submit the post, then click on "view my post".

3. Click on your post attachment then copy the url from your browser.

4. Return to your post and click on edit.

5. Insert an image link:
[image]paste your copied url goes here[/image]

6. Submit the changes.

Presto.

The print screen does nothing, except put the image into memory. You have to open a program that can accept graphics and paste it in. The PAINT that came with WinXP works.

But IrfanView is very nice, Ive had it as my viewer for a long time

Where does it go in memory?

It goes on the clipboard, just like anything else you copy/cut.
