This is a little dated (it was geared towards RM2k/3 back in the day) but gives the gist of taking a screencap.
The important thing is having Windows focused on the app you want to take a screencap of, pressing Alt+PrintScreen, and then pasting the screencap into the graphics editor of your choice.

LockeZ
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

Just use the Clipping Tool in Windows. It's easier and it works on computers without Print Screen keys.

There's a clipping tool in Windows?

The screenshot somehow ended up quite blurry, I'm not really sure how you managed to do that.
The map itself doesn't show much, most of it is just water. Are those armored knights in platemail setting up a blockade in the sewer?

I took the screenshot in full screen I agree looking at it now it looks quite empty and no there riot cops I quickly found online just for this

figured it out thanks for the help :)so what do you think :p
I kinda like it,but it's too weak considering all the other maps here.I know thanks to my terrible saloon map XD
Anyway,here's a list of all the bad things in the map:
-The edge of that water doesn't match up with the other tiles.You could use shift mapping instead to get rid of those edges.
-The wall is on the water.Do I need to say more?
-How is there moss on metal?I mean it does make sense in real life,but it looks bad in rpg maker.
-It's empty.So empty that I can barely say it's a good map.Sorry.
Still,if you are new to rpg maker it's not that bad.But you may wanna practice mapping a little.
The new theme will be out tomorrow!Can't wait!

And Here I'm with this blast. I haven't finished (started working on, actually) Zag Von Sewag yet and so I don't have any screennies.
There were some maps posted during the absence of my activity and I want to comment on em a little. As usually I was smashed by Esby's map. It's nice and clear, lighting effect are reasonable as well.
Kentona and LockeZ both created pretty sweet tilesets, which make great sewers.
Extreme, your map is pretty good. However there are some strange points (which can be caused by tileset's limits). Perspective of some details clashes. The one particular thing I have on my mind is the green alien pillar and the empty barrel. Their points of view are too different.
I'm glad to have ya all here and a newbie, Forge. You are right here, cuz your maps need to get pimped. Your sewer doesn't look like a sewer. To be honest It doesn't look like anything. It lacks personality. Also try to work with composition of yer screenshots, so they give us some information about environment. Here we see some fellas standing around water. It's flat and empty. I'm too cruel again, am I not?
So what i got prepared fer ya fer the upcoming week. There was a request for Science lab. It has booked its place but It ain't its time yet. Extreme requested for an exterior theme in past days. Guess what, it is its round. Applause for
Forest
Another essential. But don't be afraid, I have some pretty saucy themes on my mind. Be prepared!
Forest theme my God man, it's so out of the box thinking, how do you do it sir! Haha but seriously I'm in, is it just a screenshot or does it have to be playable?
No wonder Square Soft rejected my application! Also the saddest thing is that I've already seen this theme somewhere.
Don't worry about playability. It's all about fun.
And I have one request on you, people. Can you advise me on some synonyms for theme? Nothing from my vocabulary fits. Topic, matter, subject... It all has slightly different meaning.
