    Here's a n00b of a question (and yes I did run this through Search). How do you take a screenshot?

    the print screen button next to F12, at least on my keyboard, then go to something like paint and paste the image. I've only used MS Paint to do this but other thing would prolly work

    Easier to use Fraps. It allows you to decide where to store them and take multiple screens as well as a bunch of other cool stuff.

    Watch out, FRAPS will slow you down.

    Yeah I did that thanks Heavy Dan. Though its good to know about the other thing as I am trying to catch just the right image in a dynamic mid-spell moment and would like to be able to kwikly grab a few shots at once.

    Erm, I think ToEE saves automatically in this location (Atari\Temple of Elemental Evil\modules\ToEE) right after pressing 'print screen' key, and those are in .tga image format. Anyway pasting in paint or photoshop etc works too, but FYI they pile up in the said location (screenxxxx.tga = 1.84MB... wow each? WTF), so yeah you might wanna consider deleting some.
