Uploading pictures to VLE discussion forum

Almost all the people don't know how to upload a picture to a VLE discussion forum. Some people try to  do this using copy and paste. This doesn't work at all.

And some are using print screen button , save it in paint and then upload the picture which covers the whole screen and it seems that is also not successful.

The best answer for this kind of issue is to use screen capturing tools.

In windows 7 ,8 -> Snipping tool.

The path is Start > All programs > Accessories > Snipping Tool .All you have to do is to drag the pointer where you want to capture.




Unfortunately we don't have such a tool in windows XP. We have to get this tool downloaded and installed in XP.
So here is the link for XP users.

For linux users , to be honest, you 're very lucky coz  ,you can do this more easily , all you have to do is to press the print screen button.  Then automatically linux saves the screenshot for you.



Moreover if you want to do more other than saving a screenshot you can use software like SHUTTER .
