Hey does any one know where I can get a program to take pictures of my players during their games?

Just about any graphics program will allow you to screen capture images. You can also go to www.downloads.com and do a search for screen capture and there are a bunch of little applications that allow it.

All you need is windows, Tim. Hit the "print screen" key. That creates a bit map of whatever in on the screen. Open any picture editing software and paste it. Then you should be able to save it as any name in a format that will take up less disk drive space. I use this method all the time to help me keep track of my training progress.

I hope that helps . . .

You wont see anything, it stores the current screen in memory. The only way you will see anything is if you open up a graphics program and then paste it there. Its like cut and paste is all. I prefer to use actual graphics programs like paintshop. You hit the hot key and it pops up, you can do a window, the whole desktop, whatever you want.

My computer has a memory? I never knew that! That might explain alot. The person that is able to actually get me to succesfully do the screenshot thing should get a freakin medal!
