what program do you all use for your screen shots?

For full desktop screenshots, it is Command+Shift+3

For selection screen shots, Command+Shift+4 (a crosshair will appear, and to take shots of a window or your dock, etc, press the space bar, and a camera icon will appear.

Since my desktop is the one with the motorcycles, I'll assume you were asking me.

That's an 04 Kawasaki Ninja 636 following my 96 YZF600r despite mine being heavier and having significantly less horsepower. (the bummer is once we were out of the nice curvy section there, i got passed like i was standing still. But thru the turns I was the man!)

I got a screenshot..how do I post it here? My desktop is pretty.

Whoops. I found my screenshots on the desktop LOL.

I think I got it:

I love this version of Mac OS X..I also like its successors. Sorry if it is too big. My resolution is 1280x1024, and if I downsize it, the desktop screenshot is very very tiny, with nearly half my menubar items gone. Sorry!

The first menubar item is WeatherBug, followed by my S.M.A.R.T drive temp (104), hard drive (Macintosh HD); Virtual Memory percentage; CPU (which gets taxed out in a heartbeat); displays; and then the usual: AirPort, system language or something (the American flag?) and time and date plus volume and spotlight.

All you need to do is resize it :) There's a free program called iResize that will resize any image to a dimension you specify. It also does multiple images at a time... very handy.


Anyway, here's mine!
