Some (hopefully useful) additional information and visuals, to help you a bit more:
In Step
A, you actually have two options (plus another two if you are working in a remote computer); that is:
•
PRINT SCREEN This way you place a snapshot of
the entire window area (i.e. EVERYTHING you see on your monitor) on a local computer. Pressing CTRL+PRINT SCREEN is essentially the same as pressing PRINT SCREEN alone.
•
ALT+PRINT SCREEN This way you place a snapshot of
only the active window on a local computer.
•
CTRL+ALT+Plus sign (+) This way you place a snapshot of the entire client window area on the Terminal server clipboard and provide the same functionality as pressing PRINT SCREEN on a local computer.
•
CTRL+ALT+Minus sign (-) This way you place a snapshot of the active window in the client on the Terminal server clipboard and provide the same functionality as pressing ALT+PRINT SCREEN on a local computer.
Please do not forget that some Multimedia Keyboards or Laptops, might require that keys like F-LOCK or Fn (which alter the behavior of some keys) be pressed or not pressed, in order for PRINT SCREEN to work. So, if you do have such a keyboard, and when you attempt pasting in MS Paint the supposedly taken screenshot you see nothing happening, then press the F-LOCK (or Fn) key and try again.

And now some visuals to help you with the image uploading process, taken from our
Article Submission Guidelines:
HOW TO EMBED IMAGES
First of all, you will need to select an Image Hosting Service (IHS are sites like
www.imageshack.us or
www.photobucket.com, which allow you to upload your images in their servers). It is advisable that you register to the IHS of your choice, so that you are able to access your uploaded images at any time, and use them again if needed. IN ANY CASE, ALWAYS KEEP THE ORIGINAL IMAGE FILES IN YOUR COMPUTER. Follow the procedure for uploading your image to the Image Hosting Service, and you will be given an Embeddable Code for each image you successfully upload.
First alternative
As soon as the upload concludes, you can see the direct link to your image. Select the URL and press CTRL+C to copy it:
Use the Taskbar or press ALT+TAB to switch to your Internet Browser window that displays your TSF post you are preparing to submit. Press on the
Insert Image button:
A script box pops up; select the "http://" showing on the line, and then press CTRL+V to paste the URL of the image:
Press
OK on the script box; the necessary BB Code has been included in your post. Press the
Preview Post button, to make sure your image shows the way it is supposed to.
Second alternative
Browse through your uploaded images, and locate the one you want to embed in your article. Locate the
Embeddable Code for Forums next to it, select it, press CTRL+C to copy it, switch back to your post, place your cursor where you want that image to be, and press CTRL+V to paste the code:
