This lesson should show you how to take a screen capture on a PC.

In it, Huntley walks through how to find a good screen in your MindBites lesson to use as a thumbnail image and then shows you how to capture, edit and save it. Once it's saved as a .jpg file, you're shown how to upload it as a thumbnail image for one of your existing MindBites lessons. This is a great thing to do in the event that the automatically generated thumbnail image leaves something to be desired (is dark, blurry, not representative, etc).

Hey everyone! I'm Chelsea! I've been working with the MindBites team on and off for a while now, but I've only recently snagged me a new primo role here as the designated "Authors' Best Friend." As such, I'll be the go-to person anytime any of our beloved authors have questions or comments or suggestions. I have a whole crew of technical and film people at my disposal for any problems or questions that are distinctly out of my bailiwick! I'm looking forward to working with all of you out there. Please feel free to email me anytime!

When I'm not busy at MBHQ, you'll be hard-pressed to find me without a frisbee or bal of some sort closeby. I love the outdoors and pretty much any game...
