Ok, so if any of you have some some previous posts of mine here, I have a little bit of a hobby making my PC look like a Mac. Well, I finally said screw it and bought a Mac!

What have I really been missing all this time?! I haven't had this much fun computing in ages.

You can use Apple + Shift + 3 to take a screenshot of the entire screen, or press 4 instead of 3 to get a crosshair so you can choose which part of the screen you'd like to capture. Use Grab only to set the format you'd like the screenshots saved in, then never open it again.

Or you can type CMD-SHIFT-4 then tap the space bar. Your cross hair cursor will turn into the icon of a camera. When you move your camera-cursor over a menu or window or any other item it will highlight. When you click your mouse button it will take a picture of just the highlighted item.

There's all kinds of tricky little stuff you can do in OS X. [Smile]

Assuming you have a DVD-ROM drive and DVD player software, the software you use generally has a feature to do that. To know how to help you, we'd need to know which software you use.

Interestingly, Mac OSX will not let you run Grab while playing a DVD, and DVD Player provides no capture functionality. Interesting that companies nowadays are getting so paranoid about intellectual property that they refuse to allow their software to be used even for 'fair use' image captures... [/rant]

I did it on my office machine which runs Windows XP, a subject about which you should not get me started. The software is Intervideo WinDVD. It has a "snap photo" button. There's a little Photoshop clean-up there as well [Smile]
