And you should see the other one where he blows on his tea - it was hard to decide which one to post

I love the one with Sherlock and Mycroft. And I don't know why, but I think Benedict looks extraordinarily gorgeous in THoB, specially in the lab scenes.

Oh I'm so jealous you guys know how to make screen shots from the show. Must.Figure.It.Out!

Thanks for the Martin flics too Mattlocked. I so enjoy looking at a completely adorable man who is not the age of Justin Bieber.

Look at that neck, couldn't you just bite it, lick it etc (sorry to those younger or more delicate who are reading this!) (not really)

MORE WORK WITH PAINT

Sometimes you need to 'capture' whatever is on your screen, whether its the whole window or you want to copy something off a video you are watching. (The geeks call these SCREENCAPS so now you can start talking like a geek if you choose.)
The easiest way is to use the PAINT program that nearly everyone has on their computer.
On Windows, click your little windows icon in the very lower left hand side, the menu pops up & you should find "PAINT" there. (Sorry I don't know what everyone has so you'll have to ask if you can't find it). The PAINT program will open when you click on the name of it.

BUT, first we need to copy what we are capturing. On your keyboard you will find a button that is called "Print Screen" When you push that button, you will grab a copy of your whole screen. Once you do that, go to PAINT and select "PASTE" from the top corner of the menu bar. On different versions you may have to search for it or try right clicking on the blank page.

Now you probably don't need the whole picture so you can CROP the picture. Just select CROP from the menu along the top; then click in one corner of the part you want & hold the left button down & drag the square to cover everything you want to have in your picture.
This takes some practice, but you can always start again. Once you have the square, click on "CROP" again & there you have a pic.
Save this on your computer; choose a name & make sure you know where it is.(Trust me, my earliest efforts had a lot of time spent searching for those picture files.)

From there you can upload the pic to Photobucket or similar.

Once it's there, you simply hover the cursor over the picture, a menu drops down & you select the direct link address. (other programs will have similar ways of copying the address) Copy that by simply clicking on it; you will see the words "copied" pop up briefly & now you have a link saved in your little clickymouse world, ready to paste onto the forum.

Not young and not delicate here - so oh yeah, babe, that neck would be the first attack point on the list. Well, maybe the second....

Are we in a vampires' forum or what ? Ah, I see, you weren't thinking of biting his neck but …

And another one:

You can enlarge the pics - in "paint" - where you can stretch or tug them. Somewhere in the menu must be "picture" and then there is shown the size of the pic (100%). You can enhance to... whatever, 200% ? and save it new.
But most of the pics aren't better afterwards... big pixels sometimes.
In other photo-programs you can just chose from the menu "change size". I use Paint.net - you'll find a free download.
Kazza has shown a good way to copy a pic from the net - but there's a quicker one.
A click on any pic in the web with left mousebutton usually shows how big it really is. Then click with the right button and you can copy the pic (on your own desktop) or copy the address of the pic (for posting it here).
I don't know what it's called in English - here it's "graphic" - save graphic as or copy graphic address
That's all, no deletes necessary.
Sometimes it's not possible to copy the picture, in that case I pick the complete screen as Kazza described.
