But it makes me happy. The quotes are from people on one of my forum, we did a round of "Warm and Fuzzies" where people sent nice things to the members they likes.

It is amazing how much you can tell about a person from their desktops... Like all the cool people with Firefox.

You will find a key called "print screen" or something similar on you keyboard. press that, then go to paint, and press CTRL + V in paint. then save that as a JPEG, and go to image shack and upload it to there. Post the link for the image they give you onto here.
