1. Get a gun, point it at your computer monitor . . . .
. . . and pull the trigger.

3. That didn't work. Do you have any other ideas?
Do I have to use the alt, control, or function key?

5. What is the target application...?
A simple freeware image widget/viewer like irfanview should handle the paste just fine...

http://www.irfanview.com/

Not sure about your keyboard - but just hitting "Print Sreen" does the job on mine...

6. This is a new computer.
I knew how to do it on my old one. I'm going to try the link you gave me. Thanks.

4. Get someone else to hold the camera?
