RE: Screenshots
Well saving it as a jpg will mean that the filesize is quite low (not amazingly low) but it will also have a low filesize.

If you want a good quality image use software like photoshop to save your jpgs to a high quality.

(btw you only need to press prtscrn, you don't need to press ctrl with it.)

You could try saving your screenshots in PNG format.
JPG is not really good for screenshots...

First of all do you have it installed on your computer?(go to control panel>add remove programs and check)

If yes then go to Start>All Programs>Adobe Photoshop(version).

There is always GIMP which is image editing software aswell. I've never really used it so I don't know what it's capable of. I do, however, know that it's completely free to use :).
