Description tutorial...

The doll maker You see in it belongs to
I used hers since every time I'm on her page somebody asks her how to save the doll maker pictures.

Some laptops require you to push "Fn" along with Print Screen

Taking screenshot in Mac:

Command-Shift-3: Take a screenshot of the screen, and save it as a file on the desktop
or
Command-Shift-4, then select an area: Take a screenshot of an area and save it as a file on the desktop

And other thing I want to say. If You saved your picture and want to upload it to your gallery:

Always give credit to the owner of the doll maker
In dA's FAQ you can read that this type of picture can be uploaded to your scrapbook.

FAQ #502: Can I submit things which I made using different "games" like a doll maker or with other character generators?



Some people telling me their keyboard does not have the print screen button.
The button is not in the same place on every keyboard, just check out your keyboard again.
Some keyboard also use the short name of the button Prt Sc

I was trying to find out what's the matter and it writes it must work perfectly. When you push the Print screen button it does nothing until you open an art program and paste the image. (Ctrl + V)

Y'know, you can also download one of those screen picture taking things that could do it for you, without having to use a Print screen button, too. If you don't like the whole print, scan, paste thing.

Gylfie01 In reply to my-replenishment [2011-12-27 23:40:53 +0000 UTC]

I have a laptop and the print screen button works fine. If nothing seems to work that's listed above, then press Ctrl/control and at the same time press P. That won't let you paste it into paint/photoshop/gimp/whatever you use, but you can print it then scan, and then paste onto Whatever you wish to put it on. Sorry it's so complicated, but it's what you'll have to do if your Print screen button doesn't work.

Hey Aina, I have worked on getting this to work and it still won't. I pressed the Prt Sc button and all it did was push my screen down to the bottom of the page. Why does it do that? Then next...I'll open MS and it still does nothing. It doesn't let me paste anything. Please help me out. I have made so many cute pet's I wanna share with the world.
