Hello,
I need to take snapshots of certain pages from my website. I will not be continuing with my current web "designer," but want some snapshots to show to whomever I hire as the new designer. Does anyone know how I can do this and save it to my hard drive? THANKS.
i use SnagIt32
it can be downloaded as shareware...
Open the desired page then press ALT+Print Screen
Go to Paint and paste it there
Then Click File and Save As and choose the format (JPEG, Bitmap..)
If you're on a mac, it's command-shift-4. Then press the space bar. A little camera will appear. click on the window you want to copy and there you go.

Thanks - I did that and it worked, but it can only copy half a page at a time. Is there any way to reduce it so it can do the whole page at once?

Thanks - can it do the whole page at once?

Unfortunately, I don't have a Mac, but thanks anyway!
Why don't you try to save them as html files?
They will look exactly the same as your pages but a sort of "offlines files".
Open your desired page and click File then Save As. Just type a name and choose a location on your hard disk to save.
Once saved you can disconnect from the internet and you can open those files as you were connected. You can save them on floppy or CD and take them where ever you want as you're dealing with offline files
The "Save as HTML" option is what I would do ... but I would create a Parent, or Master Folder, for the project, and create an appropriately titled subfolder for each page as I saved it to the Parent Folder, for the simple organizational reason that a page saved as HTML will save with an associated subfolder of its own containing the individual HTML elements of the page.

Thanks for the great suggestion! I will try it out.

Another good suggestion - Thanks!
