For some reason my print screen doesnt work when i press it...any ideas?

when you press "PrtScrn" it places your desktop image on the clipboard. use something (MS paint works fine) and paste the picture. then save it (MS paint can do jpg). if that dont work then i dunno sad.gif

for the theme, i used stylexp (there is a "use no resources" option so i dont think it takes too much of my system).  the theme is called "windows max 2003" which i got from http://www.themexp.org.

the bar across the top is "object dock" from stardock.com.  the calendar is a small program called "Rainlendar". i forgot where i got it from but do a google search and you'll find it. its free.

i like the background cuz its subtly different from bliss.
