How do I take screenshots in FS2 so that I can post up some pics and makes some graphics with them?

Print Screen key on the keyboard, also known as PRT SCR, and many other mutations - will save a screen0001.tga file in the FS2 directory. Each time you reload the whole game, the count will start from 1, so watch out for overwriting screenshots you've already taken...

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Tip - if you're going to "make pictures", get Paint Shop Pro or something similar and run a Blur to get rid of the "pixelly" look. Make sure to take the screenshot from the rear, left, or right  views so the HUD won't be in the way. You'll have to go over the "Left/Back/Right View" green text with black, however. And finally, don't take them while the stars are blurred.

Well, sometimes star blur works well.
