Snipping Tool

After much frustration I finally have mastered the art of taking pictures of certain parts of a webpage using my Mac. There is a shortcut that involves pressing "command, shift, 4" simultaneously. The website About.com, my classmates, and technology specialist that is based at the school I teach at were very helpful in guiding me on how to complete this task. It was quite a learning experience for me but since I have practiced and done it numerous times, never will I forget this skill. Thank you to all who helped me, I can't tell you how much I appreciate you :)
