You cant with the game controls, but you can hit the print screen button on your keyboard and it will save the screen shot to the clipboard. Then open an art program and past the screen shot there.

Thanks.

Of course I don't have a print screen key -- I'm on a Mac running windows.  If I hit enough keys something should happen.  :devil

Command-Shift-4, then drag the mouse to highlight your capture area, moue button to begin and drag to the opposite corner, release mouse to end capture. It should then be on your desktop as a .png file.

That works great running OS X but since I have to run Windows to use AHFilm........

Well, in that case I would run FRAPS, or Loilo and use their screenshot option.
