Thanks for the tip about the snip!

I always use MPC for screenshots and thumbnails, but there have been times that I wanted a screen capture from one of my windows, not a video, and I never knew how to do it!

It's one of the more not as well known functions within Windows 7. None of the ads seem to advertise it, but I use it for like… EVERYTYHING lol

Try the program ImageGrabber - available in our download area

This may not have to apply per say to the users who run Windows 7. Within Windows 7 there is a feature called "Snipping Tool", often referred to as "Snip It". If you pause the video on any given spot where you want a screen shot, this lovely tool may be your best friend.

Generally, you can find this tool in Windows 7 under:
Start > All Programs > Accessories > Snipping Tool

If you wish to speed the process up using this tool, you can also pin it to your task bar for easier use by right clicking on Snipping Tool from your Start Menu, then clicking "Pin to Task Bar".
