Well it's quite simple really. All you really need to do is hit the "Print Screen" button right above the arrow keys on your keyboard(that is if you want everything displayed on your screen). If you would only like the specific program you are running, simply hold ALT while pressing "Print Screen" and it will take a screenshot of only you'r specific program.
After getting your screenshot, you will not know how it looks until you paste it into a painting program, such as Paint(durr), Photoshop, Gimp, ect. To paste it into the program, all you gotta do is hit CTRL + V.
Tadaa! You should now see your screen displayed in the graphics program of you'r choise, you can now save/print the picture to show your fancy new desktop to all of you'r friends!

StarCraft 2 announced..
Yeah I know, a few days behind but oh well, might as well post this also. StarCraft 2 was officially announced to be the new game being developed by Blizzard Entertainment.
StarCraft 2 will feature the same three races: Protoss, Zerg, and Terran. Action will unfold on the same type of 2D plane as before, with multitiered maps that ground units must use ramps to move between. Graphics have been updated, many new units added, and some old units removed. Blizzard was unwilling to divulge much about how the Zerg and Terran forces have changed, but shed some light on the new developments for the Protoss. When it finally is released, it will be for PC and Mac only. It's currently in pre-alpha stages of development, and has been in production at Blizzard since the release of WarCraft 3: The Frozen Throne in 2003.

Laser Engravings on Macbook Pro
Leah Culver just got herself a brand new 15 inch MacBook Pro, with a 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 3 GB RAM, and a 200 GB Hard Drive. What a great laptop. Can you guess how? She got it Laser Engraved with ads.
Here is Leah's new Macbook Pro engraved with the ads. So she created a site, selling ad space on her new laptop. The ad space cost $150 per square inch and she quickly got dozens of companies signed up such as Digg, Valley Wag, Zoomr, Ask, and Revision3.
After she got enough to purchase the Macbook Pro she went and got it engraved. Check out the video of it all happening here.
She now has her brand new Macbook Pro with some spiffy engravings on the cover.

Design Tools: Part 1
Well ive decided I will start writing some thoughts about the current software I use for designing websites, 3D, or 2D Art. I mainly use Adobe Photoshop, and Autodesk 3DS Max 9.0 for my graphic designs. Photoshop for textures, designs, web layouts and anything else I need for 2D.
3DS Max on the other hand, is a very powerful 3d Design tool, made by Autodesk. It is a bit complicated to learn at first, from the ammount of different tools it has. But once you get used to it you can produce some great 3D models from it.
I will go into a little bit more detail in further posts later this week, next week at the latest.
