image capture

image capture is the act of saving a screen image onto the clipboard (The memory area that temporarily stores information). This can be easily done by pressing the 'print screen' or 'prntscr' on the keyboard. (Note: by pressing Alt+Printscreen, the image saved to the clipboard will be of the active window only). This image can then be used as needed in an image editor or manipulator like paint, photo shop, publisher, etc... Images DO NOT show the cursor. Also there are multipile programs which can take screen shots or an image capture. Ex: '!Quick Screen Capture', 'ScreenShot', and 'WinSnap'.

banner 2

This is the second banner that I have developed, but I'm liking my first one better because of it's simplicity. So I shall keep that until a better version.

Cartoon Characters

I have created a character, on which I will soon own a legal copyright which is being used as a mascot for a local printing company, 'say it'. This is one of the advertising shirts they printed for carnival using my character 'Duwd' dressed as a pencil.



Yes, they misspelled 'Duwd' but this was the sample sent to me for free, so the finished product is good.
