I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



The name is LEE!

    << <i>can I do the same screen capture thing without special software? That is pretty cool. >>



    Yes you can.

    I use WIndows XP with IE 6.

    When the screen comes up, I press ALT+Print Screen

    This copies an image of the current window to the clipboard.

    Next, I do START/Programs/Accessories/Paint

    When Paint opens, do a Ctrl+V to paste the clipboard into the Paint File.

    Then do a Save As and select JPG from the options of filetypes to save as. The Default is for a bitmap (.bmp) which, for me, is difficult to work with and expensive byte wise so I opt for .jpg .

    Once the JPG has been saved, I open it with MircoSoft Office Picture Manager. This should be a part of the MicroSoft Office Suite but if you do not have MS Office installed, you may not have it in which case these instructions won;t work.

    I crop off what I don;t want shown then save that. I'll also compress it to a Document Compression (or Web Compression depending upon detail) and upload it to a Miscellaneous Folder in Photobucket.

  • Good for you on the 1971 S/S Ikes! image

    The question I have, they recieved them on 11/12/08 and you got the grades posted already? How do you rate? I know one member here who has had a coin in for "review" nearly 6 months and nothing yet image

    The other option is to frame window around what you want and then do the print screen, that will allow skipping the second to last step.

    For "special coins" I always go with the 5 Day Express Special. I mailed these Express Insured on 11/8 and with the Veterans Day Holiday (no PO) PCGS didn;t get them until the 12th. I have no idea why they graded so quickly but I ain't gonna complain.

    BTW, that 71-S PR69DCAM is a Top Pop.
