This screencast will show you how to take pictures from web pages, and insert them into your blog posts and pages. I use Flickr as the source for the pictures that I use as it has copyright friendly material available on it. This method of inserting pictures should work from other websites as well, but be certain that you are not violating copyright with your picture choices. Due to the size of the screen that I used for this Jing, it might be easier for you to see this by clicking the larger version. This is a large file…it will take a while but it is worth it (if I don’t say so myself)
To save the picture to your computer, you often right-click and “Save image as”. Because this site is Flash-based that won’t work. Instead, use the “Print Screen” key (sometimes says “Prt Sc” – it’s usually at the top of the keyboard) on your keyboard and edit it the screenshot with imaging editing software like PhotoShop or Fireworks.
