When I access my clipboard after Print Screen, I can't do anything but save it. If I save it all I can save it as are .clp or ynder all files. I don't know what to do to get it to paint or to resize it or anything like that.

Press Print Screen. Open Paint. Select Paste from the edit menu (I assume... I've never messed with paint). You may have to create a new empty image with the exact resolution of your screen before you paste the image. Then be sure to resize it down to 550 pixels wide.

Paint only saves images in bitmaps, which is useless for this purpose since I didn't allow bitmaps. You can also only resize in percentages, so thinking is involved.

Hey Joe, that was really funny.... I could see that coming. I was more likely expecting Michael to do that but since you beat him to the punch, good job... [Big Grin]

I can't seem to get my desktop to save in jpeg format and I'm unable to resize. Am I using the wrong program?

Apparently.

You can buy Photoshop here. I'm sure you can find something less expensive for what you want to do though.

FInally decided to attempt the capture/resize method ising Photoshop. Worked really well, and was quite simple actually.

I wish I had more time to spend playing with and developing skills in Photoshop... it seems like such a powerful program.

Anyway, this is supposedly an imagine captured of Hurrican Isabel from soem sort of cargo/transport ship.

Um...am I weird? I have never used wallpaper. Never saw the point as I always have a bunch of windows open and never see the desktop except very briefly when going back to click on some icon. So why would I care what the background was?
