Pictures!

This past week in my technology class we have been learning all about digital images! I have learned, how to take them, format them, send them, post them and so much more! One thing I learned- screen captures. I wish I had known about screen captures before! Last year I took a Special Education class that required us to attach a classroom layout to a lesson plan and submit it digitally. This seemed easy. I was wrong. The found an amazing website to us! However, this website did not allow you to copy the and move the layout. The layout could only be transported by printing or using the same computer every time. If i knew about screen captures - this would have been a piece of cake!
How do you do this one might ask? Its quick and simple, just three key strokes!

On Macs, hold down command + shift + 3. That will give you the whole screen. But if you only want a certain section on the screen then replace the 3 and 4 and the cross hairs will be available for you to crop away!
