How do you take a picture of your computer screen?

Answer 1

Press Print screen button on your keyboard and then open up a graphics programme and then press ctrl V and it will paste a picture of your screen into it as a picture - then save the image and print or whatever you wish.

If you are wanting to do this with a camera then it's tricky - you have to adjust the shutter speed to match the refresh rate of the monitor - tricky - much better to use the above method.

Answer 2

A screen shot is a PICT image capture of your Mac's screen.
You can take a screen shot just about any time you want --
if you see something you want to save, or want to be able to
show your Mac's screen to someone else, this feature can
come in very handy!

You can take a screen shot by pressing the Command, Shift,
and 3 keys all at once. You'll hear the sound of a camera
shutter, that means your screen shot has been created! You
can find the screen shot in the main level of your hard drive.
It will be called "Picture 1," screen shots you take after that
will be numbered sequentially: Picture 2, Picture 3, etc.

Screen shots are saved in PICT format. You can open them
with SimpleText, AOL, or any graphic editor..
