Press the PrintScrn key while in game, then switch out to a graphics program, paste the image, and save it. Then upload it to an image host (such as imageshack.us) and post the link here.

You can also use a utility such as FRAPS that saves screenshots directly to disk, so you don't have to switch out and paste them.

I use Hoversnap, and proportedly Infranview has this feature as well.
SoundPackager - Customize the Windows sound scheme

Yeah, I use Irfanview. You just start up the capture function in the background and every time you hit ctrl+f11 (or whatever key combination you assign) it'll take a shot and store it in a predefined place. It works quite well for me.

Its also a good idea to get an online photo store, I use Photobucket to store pictures and then insert links to those images in my posts.
