I'm glad you asked this, Moxie. I only run Mac as well

It's easier than PC's and you don't have to worry about converting it because it's in .PNG which is already compressed!

Get what you want to take a picture of on the screen and press "Shift+Apple+4"

You'll see cross hairs, just click and drag the box around what you're taking a picture of and you'll hear the "shutter" sound and "picture1.png" will appear on your desktop

When I click on Prnt Scrn nothing happens to I need to change a setting or something?

[Justin]

when you press "prnt scrn" it just puts it on the "clip board" so you have to open another program, like paint or photoshop or something and press "control-v" and paste it in

Thanks Justin for the great advice.

Lets see if this works; this should be a photo of my yard.

I don't mind posting a small picture. All you have to do is click on it and it opens up bigger. But I will try your way when I get home. It seems like too many steps to get the same result. But I will give it a try.
