This is driving me nuts. I use WindowsXP... I want to take a screenshot, I push PrintScreen, and go paste it as a new image in my photo editing program (Jasc PaintShop Pro 6). But instead of showing up as the image, it ends up being a "window" to the background behind it...
It never did this with Windows98...what do I do!

do you want the whole screen? if so, just press the PRT SCR button on your keyboard.
If you have an application that is in a window and want a screenshot of just that app, press ALT and PRT SCR.
Hope that helps.

You can pick the frame of the clip you want and use paint shop or ms paint to copy the picture
