Paint? Yay! :lol:

Yeah, that one is the most available but I recommend GIMP2. When you save something to .jpeg in Paint then resolution and the picture quality will be worse (because the screenshot is in bitmap).

Why do you want to know how to capture that image when you have it already up there?

Using the Print Screen button will make an image of EVERYTHING on your screen. If you want to only make an image of a small window, with that window selected, use ALT+PRINT SCREEN
