How To Take A Screenshot?

#1
Forgive me if this is in the manual and I missed it but...
I assume it is possible to take screen shots in game, but I don't know how.

Can someone help me out?
click P for pause, then hit PRT-SCR, then hit ALT+TAB to return to windows desktop.
Click START->Programs->Accessories->MSPaint

when open hit CTRL+V and save the file, close paint and ALT+TAB to return to the sea :)

If your mouse keeps docking in either corner of your desktop, then simply TAB back to E:RT and hit SPACE, then TAB back out.
Thank you Jesper, I'll give that a try.

Fed up with hitting "PrtSc" and leaving E:RT to paste the clipboard?
Me too.

I have been trying this bit of freeware called ScreenGrab:

Set it to "Auto-save to file" and it makes life a lot easier...

There is another program that you can use called Fraps that takes both screenshots, .avi movies and will give you FPS (not shown in screenshot.) Best of all, it's free. The screenshots are taken in .bmp form and can be converted to .jpg with your favorite photo editing program.
