hey,go here and get 'mutigrab' http://www.mnwright.btinternet.co.uk/index.htmit will allow you to take up to 100 screenshots and view them. You will then have to import to a paint program to resize to 700 wide.A water tower is a much better choice for a first project than a whole plane. walk before you run...joe

While there are programs that capture the screen, and save several screenshots at the same time, maybe the easiest way is to:Open MS Paint 1. with your program active (do a quick click on the screen to make sure), press ALT and hit the Print Screen key (ALT-PrtScrn). This captures what you're seeing on the screen.2. Press ALT-TAB (or click on the PAINT button in the bottom task bar) to get into PAINT. Now click EDIT-->PASTE. You now have a copy of your program screen in MS PAINT.3. Click FILE->SAVE. Give it a name like "SCREEN1.jpg" and make sure that the "Save As type" is JPEG (you can save it in several formats but JPEG is safe). MS PAINT defaults to the "My Pictures" directory.Now coming back to as your typing your post ...4. WHere it says "Attachment" below, click where it says "Click here to choose your file" and another dialog box comes up .. click on the "Browse" button and navigate to the folder where you saved your screen shot on your computer (probably "My Pictures" folder) and double-click on the screen shot (SCREEN1.jpg if you named it like that). You'll be back to the dialog box.It's ready to upload, so click on the Upload File! button. Once it finishes uploading, click on "Close this window" and you'll be back here to finish the posting.Hope this helps
