Assuming you're using Windows, there should be a button on your keyboard that says "Print Screen". On most keyboards, it'll be on the top row of your keyboard.

Push that key and then open Paint or a similar program and push Ctrl + V to paste the screenshot into the program. Then, you can edit the picture as you please and save.

In case you're having trouble finding the key, it's sometimes abbreviated as PrtSc, and if you have a computer like mine it may also share a key with SysRq.

If you're using a Mac you just press command + shift + 3, and then screenshot will magically appear on your desktop. :)

If you're trying to add images to comments or forum replies, you can refer to the commands link to the right of this reply box. You need to have the image hosted at a site like Photobucket, imgur, tinypic or similar.

[ img=link to image][/ img]

Use this code without spaces, substitute "link to image" with the url of the image you want to use.

The image would have to be uploaded somewhere on the internet already in order to have a URL.

Have you followed the instructions so far?

Once you have your image saved on your computer, go to imgur and it'll explain the process.

I didn't realize that the image was for your Creatures Caves icon/avatar. You can use the upload form in Settings to upload it to Creatures Caves. :)
