It´s annoying when the .PCX files made with CTRL+S/G are black.

Screenshots never work with me, they always come out in greyscale.

Thats what I do. I...

1: Press Print Screen to take a screenshot onto Windows Clipboard.
2: Save the clipboard to a .CLP file.
3: Open the .CLP file with Paint Shop Pro 7.
4: Do whatever the hell I want with it.
Thanks,
Adam Reece.

i always:
1. take print screen with keyboard
2. paste it into paint
3. cut out what i want
4. save this to a jpeg file
5. when big , save the jpeg to a zip or ace file
6. attach the small jpeg or the small zip

not much trouble

whicked also means devilishly clever, i think
Well, back to work, lot's of it in the near future
