While viewing your desktop, press "ctrl + prt sc" at the same time. That will grab an image of your computer screen.

Then go into a photo editing software and "paste" the image. Windows has a program called Paint located at:
Start > All Programs > Accessories > Paint

After pasting the image into Paint, save it as a Jpeg (extension .jpg) with a name of your choice.

I use Flickr for my photos. I uploaded my desktop image to Flickr, then linked the photo to the message I posted here on OAUSA.

Very cool John. Why do you have a pic of my cruiser with the high lift from sidewinder? I've been trying to forget that one! :)

x2. Do you just use photoshop or something and create a canvas?

Haha! Oh, you outted yourself on that one! :lol: Besides, I don't get to use my High-Lift all that often. :mrgreen:

Unwiredadventures explained it pretty well. I used the paint program on my computer and saved it to photobucket.

I'm fascinated by indian rock art, and we love to explore for ruins and art. Found this wallpaper while doing some research on the net for new locations to explore.

I'm using a picture I took from the grandstands at the Auto Club 500 in Fontana a few weeks ago.
