Screen capture,  "SnapShot",  free and works well. And it makes nice sounds like a camera.

Any one source audio, the older version of WavePad Sound Editor. I don't like the new version.

Grabbing frames from a video I use the free Edit DivX program I got a few years ago. It will capture the frame in the videos res and store it in many formats. No loss.

What kind of presentation do you want to do? Audio, Video, Frame work? All together?

On Lo work save as and then work the prints to size many ways. I even still use Microsoft Picture manager to do a lot of finish down sizing. Can also crop there. On Peggy there is a pixel limit for the width. I set my photos to 680 or 650 pixels wide so no scrolling is needed. Set a link to the original if needed.

Having fun yet Elvis.

I use Paintshop Pro 5  This was the last cool version before they sold out to Corel.  But Corel created a nasty file embedded into windows 7 and 8 that disables to tool function on PSP5  If you have Windows Vista or earlier it is an awesome program :D

I have used Paint Shop Pro 6 since Windows 2000, and I am still using it in Windows 8.1 without any problems. :)

W2k was the best version of Windoze, IMHO.

Never crashed, but the PC did develop a split personality after a power supply failiure 2 years ago.

The mac has never crashed, but then again i never use it.... ::)

The Amiga crashes now & then, but remembers what it was doing, and can reboot everything in 1 minute flat 8)
