For Vista, is there a way to select a section of a webpage to turn into a picture file?

I found a webpage that I’d really like to upload to Facebook as a picture, but just a fraction of the page. Is there any way to select a certain area of a webpage and save is as a picture file? I know there’s a feature for it on Mac.

Go to the website and hold down the shift button and press the print screen button. You now have captured a copy of the whole screen.

Go to the paint program and open it and select paste. The entire screen picture will be in your paint program. Select the piece of it that you want and select copy. Open a new copy of the paint program and select paste. The program will now show you only the part of the screen that you wanted. Click file -> save and save it as a jpg or png file.

This image can be used as the background of your page.

  1. There’s a tool on Windows 7 called snipping tool which does that exact thing, but your best bet on vista is to print screen the area and edit the image in paint

    Yea, there is, go to My computer, and in the search box, type in SnippingTool.
    Then select the area you want as a picture, and save it. :)
    No need to download a software.

  4. If you can see all that you want on your screen then press the print screen button near the top right of your keyboard when you’re at the page you want, then go to any image editing program, paint if you have none and paste it there, you can always crop it or in paint use the square selection tool to cut out the bit you want then change attributes sizes to 10×10 or anything else thats smaller than the cut out area and paste it.
