What is the "paint" program for Mac?
Also, is it possible to do a "page capture" (Control+Print Screen on a PC) and use it as an image?
Thanks,
HK

Lots of Paint alternatives, but none really bundled. Don't have a suggestion there, as my painting skills are awful /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
Screen capture: Select Help -> Mac Help in the Finder, and enter screenshot in the search box. You'll find good details on how to use the built-in tools (Shift-Command-3 and -4) to capture screens, regions, and windows to file or clipboard.

PosterPaint is pretty slick, there are several others: PosterPaint
Mac screen shots are captured by holding down the Apple key, Shift and hitting the number 3 for a full screen picture. To control the actual area of a screen shot, hold down Apple and Shift then hit the number 4.
