What Do I Need To Make Screenshots?

[Inter4]

In my games I've had some interesting situations and I wish I could have made screenshots to remember those magical moments.
Can ANYONE tell me what software do I need to make screenshots?

funny. I just mad a thread kind of related to this topic. see: "a city named lol".

yes yes yes yes I need to know too, and could not find any info in the FAQ.

When you are in a situation you want a screenshot, just use the PrintScreen key. Then go to your graphics program (PSP, ...) and Ctrl V. You can even paste directly in Word, Excel, ... (ie if you don't want to resize or change the picture)

I just explained it few minutes ago in the thread called A City named lol: Press Print Scrn button in your keyboard.
It is the fourteenth button from the left.

Edit: Allright I was looking other threads in C&C forum.
This is one of the bad things when you have many windows open

o. OK!

I forgot that part where I past it into paint.
I think it was Starcraft were you could hit print screen and it would make a file for you automaticly.

thanks.

weird!

quote from here:

How do I take screenshots?

• Use the capture-function of a graphics program
  or
• Hit the 'Prt Scrn' button on your keyboard. Then open a graphics program such as Paint (you can use the windows key, then go to Programs....Accesories...Paint, this way you don't need to exit the game), then you 'paste' and there's the screenshot! Remember to reduce the image size a bit, or crop it, and save the file as .JPG.
• There are also lots of screenshot programs you can download at download.com.

Do you also see it when you look at the FAQ or is that a hallucination I have?

Hey guess what? I feel really stupid. I swear I did look at the FAQ. Maybe since it is 2cd from the top of the list, I just scanned right past it.

who knows....

that has been known to happen and is one of the reasons why I posted the 'quick find' thing in post one.
