I'm trying to get a screenshot for a blog post I'm trying to write. Does anyone here know how to get just a screenshot a specific area? I'm trying to get a screenshot of a Hatpc window, but I get the whole page, when I press "print screen". Even once I put it in Paint and remove the rest of the screen, it's still a big Hatpc window surrounded by a bunch of white.

So I guess my questions are:

1. Is it possible to only screenshot a certain part of the screen?

or

2. Can you make a picture in paint smaller without resizeing the image?

Thanks.

in Paint, mark your area in a rectangle, cut it, then ctrl+N. then paste.

Paste the picture in paint, then drag the part of the picture you want to the top-left corner of the screen. (this will be the top-left corner of the new image) Then, outside of the canvas, look for a little tiny dot at the bottom-left of the image. (not on the actual picture) Drag it around, and you'll see that it crops the image for you!

mine's shorter and easier and more accurate.

paste the image in paint select it and crop it. the end.

Download a program called 'Snippy' and you can just draw a rectangle while the game s automatically paused.

but how can the game be paused?

I think alt+prt scrn=picture of frontmost window ie Hatpc window.

whoa I didn't know that! I just tested it and it works.

You are a genius Harumbai.

woah, how did that get +4 if you guys didn't know this, then how do you print screen?

...all you have to do is to click the window and then do it...

Er, you just need to press Print Screen. It's on the keyboard, next to Scroll Lock and Pause Break. No ALT needed. Besides, there's a method called "click a window", ya'know?

This is getting a picture of one window not the whole page.

Since when did books get involved? You can crop images in Paint, ya'know. Print Screen -> Open Paint -> Edit & Paste/Ctrl+V -> Select Crop Tool -> Draw border around the image you want -> Edit & Cut/Ctrl+X -> Open another Paint window/New -> Edit & Paste/Ctrl+V. Very simple and accurate.

Lol, why is everybody still answering? I thought the 1st few answers would do. I declare all screenshot questions officiall OVA! (Sorry whoever did that 1st)

cuz i didn't know you can also just prtscr without alt, so...okay.

You could memorize the page and remake it in GIMP or Paintshop pixel by pixel. No difficult button combinations required.

Why am I against this?

1. Those programs are very advanced and very UNeasy to use if you don't use them much
2. It would take so much memorizing that the brain would implode
3. Pixel by pixel? That would make the brain EXplode.
4. It takes up 3/4 of your free computer time.
5. It takes very, very long to do.
6. The button combinations aren't difficult. Just press CTRL and the required letter.

I think that was a joke.

So, I decided that I wanted a really cool screenshot of "ForOverlord" and I decided to try Jell's suggested method.



What do you guys think?

As for Hannah, you may be charged for plagarism, by either The Creators Of Spongebob Squarepants or the artist Of Ruby The Brave. As for the dynamite crates, they look like babies wrapped up in blankets.
