Hi,

I am trying to save some pictures on an item for sale, and i cannot save the image. Done the right click and everything else. It seems not be able to copy at all! Anyone have a method to get around this? Thanks and that will be a big help.

Where are you trying to save them from, the forum, ebay or a dealers site?

If you have MS Paint, hit the "print screen" key, open paint, and paste. Then the file can be cropped or edited in paint and then "save as" jpg.

You can also try using the "snipping tool" on the Windows main screen if that is what your programme is? Leon.

No problem, that's the easy way to do it for me. If you have other photo editing software you can do more enhancing or editing once you have it saved in jpg format.

If the material in question is copyrighted, I've found that one must copy the picture and some items alongside it (such as text). Then, simply paste into a word document and save the image from that.

This is when copying the picture itself does not work.

Get the program called FastStone Capture, easy as pie using it, even on copyrighted pics.

The best of the best solutions I found is a clip2net you can download it here Clip2Net — mac screen capture, linux and windows screen capture program
It gives you a chance to make a such screenshots with ability to make your notes and post it to the net in a seconds( as unregistered, they will be able to download from the internet for about a month) or save to your computer. Just a example of screenshot here:
