Print Screen

Always in the past when I click on "Prt Scr" (print screen) it takes a screen
dump and I am able to paste the image. Something happened and now when I
click on it, it goes to a print menu like I am printing a document. Any idea
what happened and how to fix it?

Screen Capture ( make sure you select jpeg, anything else is a bigger
size )
If you are in any windows based program, just hit the Print Screen key
on your keyboard ( or Ctrl + V ) and you have a full screenshot.
If you hold down the 'Alt' key with the Print Screen key, you will
capture only the window that is on your screen, not the whole desk top.
This sends it to Clipboard, now you can Paste it into Paint ( go to
Edit ) or any other Windows based graphics program.
Save as...
Save as type, select JPEG etc.
Image Resizer

This PowerToy enables you to resize one or many image files with a
right-click.
Here is how to get it smaller, right click on the file & select >
Resize Pictures, I use 800 x 600 or 640 x 480. Makes it a lot easier to
email.
If you need to crop it, put it in any Edit program and crop.
