Print screen the fast way with the snipping tool.

One push on the PrintScreen key will take a whole “photo” of your monitor screen (in my case of 2monitors). You can now open MS Paint and press CTRL+V and you have a picture of your screen.

If you push on ALT+PrintScreen, you’ll have a Print Screen of your top window that you can now paste into any other program.

This Print Screen Works fine, if you don’t mind editing the pictures. But if you like to do it a little faster and more advanced there is an extra option in Microsoft Windows 7 which is called the Snipping Tool.

The Snipping Tool really is a Print Screen on steroids. To open it you’ll need to go to Start menu, open All Programs, then Accessories, and select Snipping Tool.

Some of the Snipping Tools options are:

• Rectangular Snip
• Window Snip

Also, you can use Free Form Snip like this.

The files can be saved as JPEG, PNG, Gif and HTML but you can also edit the pictures with a pen or marker and they can be immediately sent via email.

The best thing to do is just play around with it and you’ll see what a useful Windows 7 gadget this is.
