What do you mean becomes useless? You cant save to any image format?
Posted by: Assassin
I cannot change the format but after digging around in the tech forums I did find out the procedure to post a screenshot:
alt+print screen key
open paint shop
save as jpeg
open a personal web page and upload image
from here it is pretty straight forward...but thanks for your concern!!!!!!!
:D

You can use a freeware to grab screenshots. Screenhunter is the one I use, you can get it [URL=http://www.wisdom-soft.com]here.[/URL]
It let's you save the image in various formats, like .bmp & .jpg.

How to capture a screen shot and save it as an image:
Why use freeware and risk spyware bundled with it. Or compy space. Just Alt+Print Screen, then open Paint.
Then Ctrl + V, click yes. Then, you can save your image as a JPEG. If you want only a part of it, crop it using the "Select" option, aka the dashed-square, one of the left buttons. Then copy, open a new paint pad, paste in the cropped portion of the image, Save As, and you're set!

Demented, in all the years that I have been using the screen capture utility, I have yet to notice any spyware bundled with it. Although there are some spyware attached to free downloads, I've noticed it's mostly with games and frivolous stuff - I have yet to see one attached to a screen capture utility.

I do not have a personal web page to store any images. Is there a site that i can do this for free??

Get your personal web page here at [URL=http://www.freewebs.com]www.freewebs.com[/URL]. you dont even need to put up a web site if you dont want to. you can just use the free space to add pictures. then all you have to do is put the [COLOR=red][b]URL[/b][/COLOR] to the image in between: "[img]" and "[/img]"
like i did:

Also you can get your images hosted on image hosting sites for free, (Just make sure you dont go over the bandwidth.)
A few ok ones are.
[URL=http://photobucket.com/]PhotoBucket[/URL]
[URL=http://www.villagephotos.com/]VilliageHosting[/URL]
[URL=http://www.myimgs.com/]MyImgs[/URL]
Just sign up an account and upload your images from the file on your pc.
..>Lost<.. its probs better to use these that websites.
O and also never host images hosted on AngelFire or they turn out as "Image hosted by AngelFire!" Images.
