take a screenshot or upload here?
upload option are visible when posting a message or a reply, taking screenshoot is just press...printscreen key, (my keyboard is italian so printscreen has another name not sure that on a USA keyboard )

Yeah it is Print Screen, I am just saying as in Cropping and whatever, there are some people who have asked on other sites how to upload Screenshots.

There is a tool out there forget the name but it snaps a shot of whatever you want and auto uploads it to its website.Then you just copy the link.Pretty handy, just wish i could remember the name.i have it installed ill look for it.

That one you showed up at the top worked

i use this
http://www.donationcoder.com/Software/M ... index.html

may be a overkill but may do tons of things almost impossible with the others (as capture window scrolling out of the screen ) and is quite handy to add text, arrows etc on the fly to the grabbed

works also without the key, (that is free) only without pop out a reminder when called

(there is also a more simple version scroll page for the link )

Sorry about that I had never seen that post as I have never had problems uploading to this site.
Looks exactly like what I was suggesting though.
Thanks Tux

Ok, it doesn't want to display.

Looks as though they are blocking hotlinking on their server. No embedding allowed. Direct view only.

I use faststone image viewer for screen grabs and annotating them using the built in draw table:
