is the problem that (1)the image attachment won't let you post a picture that large, or (2)you don't know how to make the picture?

if (1) :: pm me and i will give you my email address...you will send me the picture, i will upload it onto my site and send you the http address of the picture

if (2) :: press ALT+PRINT SCREEN together (which will copy your desktop to your clipboard) and then paste [Cntrl+V] the image into an image program...if you don't have one, just use Paint (i assume you are on Windows)

is that what you meant??

Jrs, do a search; keywords "download clipboard viewer". Or go to the help file in windows, type in "clipboard viewer" to see if you have installed it. If not, and you still have the installation disk, install it. Then, after you have figured out if you have installed it, press ALT+PRT SCR, bring up the "clipboard" program" a screenshot should be waiting for you there. There is no fanfare when pressing ALT+PRT SCR. I mean no window pops up asking you anything, it just automatically gets copied to your clipboard. Watch the cursor arrow when you press ALT+PRT SCR, you'll see it disappear for a second, that's your cue that it is being copied.

Anyone have a good, free clipboard program to download in case we don't have the Windows Installation disk?
