Geeks for Christ board will be only for the original intention I had made it for, wich was for Christian Geeks.

Most of the other content will be moved to gfcmoms.com

Any peaceful discussions on Christian matters, along with some Bible studies will be available at eatyourbible.com

If you wish to debate, you can do so at challengemybeliefs.com

Also I will be adding a special board for people who have had or are thinking about getting weigh loss surgery. This site is called christianbandits.com

All these sites will be integrated into Geeks for Christ. The user database will be the same for each board. You will be able to post on any board you wish.

I apologize for the inconvenience but I believe this is the best plan for the future of Geeks for Christ. The board has gone into so many different directions that I think it’s time to separate it into different boards that will allow the different interest and personalities to participate without the fear of offending or being offended.

Thank you all for your patience and may God Bless all of you.

1. The first step is to create the windows that you want to capture and leave them up on the screen.
2. Just to the right of your keyboard, you should see three groups of keys.  The lower set of keys usually is a group of arrow keys.  Above that is usually a set of some six keys that are labeled “Insert,” “Home,” “Page Up,” etc.  Above that should be three keys that have rather odd labels - like Pause/Break and ScrLk.  One of those keys should be labeled PrtScrn/SysRq. Pressing Alt-PrintScreen (Alt-PrtScrn) places an image of the frontmost window on the clipboard. Pressing PrintScreen by itself places an image of the entire desktop on the clipboard.
3. If you press PrtScrn/SysRq, nothing will appear to have happened.  However, your computer just took a snapshot of its screen and stored that picture on its clipboard, much as it stores information that you cut and paste.
4. Open MS-Paint. (From Start/Run, issue the command “mspaint”.) Create a new empty image, and use Edit/Paste to bring in the screenshot you just took. (If the screenshot is smaller than the default Paint canvas, you will end up with white areas. Start over: create a new empty image, change its dimensions to 1×1, and Paste again. The canvas will grow for the Paste, but it doesn’t shrink.)
5. Use MS-Paint to Save As, using PNG as the file format (it is superior to all the rest).

Other Notes

• On Vista (all editions) you can use Snipping Tool to capture a screen shot, or snip, of any object on your screen, and then annotate, save, or share the image. It is a screengrab application that is much better then Windows XP’s measly Alt-PrintScreen. But the tool is difficult to find. But you can just type “Snipping Tool” in the search bar in the windows menu. The first time you run it it will ask if you want to add it to your quick launch bar.
• Instead of MS Paint you could also use Word, or some other word processing program, you can paste the image into it.  You can then save the Word document and email it to us as an attachment.
• You may also be able to paste the image directly into your email, depending on what type of email program you have.  (Microsoft Outlook can do this, for example.)
• If you press Alt and the PrtScrn/SysRq keys together, the computer will take a snapshot of the currently active window ONLY.  This can save some space in a Word documentor in an email.

This works on all versions of Windows: Win95, Win98, WinME, WinNT  and Win2000, XP, 2003.
