how do you take a screen shot of a Poser screen? Inquiring (but humble) minds want to know.

I guess the old school "print screen" key then paste into paint etc. would work fine...  easiest way to do a screen cap...

I use MWSnap 3 ... works like a charm.

Make sure your camera is square-on to the screen. Turn off all room lights and draw the curtains. Underexpose by about a stop. Use a longish focal length.

I just prt-screen key, and the very handy alt+prt-screen (only gets topmost window, saves a lot of cropping)

PSP 7's screen capture is brilliant. You can decide there & then what part of the screen you want to capture.

are you talking about screen print or are you talking about rendering to post in the gallerys

On a PC? As has been said already, if you want a screen capture then use the "Print Screen" key on  your keyboard for the whole screen, or ALT + Print Screen for the active window, then Paste into a paint program.

If on the other hand you want to save the contents of your Document Window (your scene), from the menu bar do; File > Export > Image.

Thank you all for your responses.  I just wanted to capture a snapshot of the whole poser screen that includes all the document window and all the palettes so that I could portray a poser figure using poser. Sort of like that guy that used Blender to make a render of a actual blender next to a screen shot of Blender (or something like that.).  I hope that was not too trivial for you all.

* I hope that was not too trivial for you all.  *
Yes it was. You have offended the Forum Gods. Please make amends by posing a question of deep meaning, such as "Is Truth Beauty, and is Beauty Truth?", "If Poser 7 crashes to desktop when nobody is using it, has it really crashed?" or the perennial favourite, "Who has the best boobs, Vicki 3 or 4?"

Or how about, if a tree falls down in the middle of a forest but no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?
This is one of those yes & no answers. People look at you strange though when you ask it, they think of course it makes a sound! Think about it though.

3Dsmacker - Do you mean the entire screen like this? Do you have Paint Shop Pro?

You know, this forum has a very good and happy atmosphere.  The moderators are to be commended for keeping it that way.

Yes, Stormchaser, that's exactly what I wanted, but not I do not have Paint Shop Pro.  I do, however, have Photoshop Elements 2.0.
