In windows you could always use Prtsc key to print screen while in mouse look and paste it in any imaging program.
Also using the snapshot feature . when taking a snapshot just click on the MORE button for more options and chose Freezeframe ( full screen preview) and save to your hard drive or upload to SL for 10$L _____________________

control - `
You can also use a picture-taking program and set up a macro - Fraps does it, and so will others. _____________________

Ctrl + Shift + S
This is the way to do it when in mouselook, or any other view as well. _____________________

Ctrl plus the tilde sign together, works for me (Windows) Pep (Shifted far right, middle alphabetic row key for me; I believe US keyboards may have it top left of the numeric row) _____________________

Care is needed, though, as the tilde character moves around the keyboard depending on your country of origin. Pep (Shifted far right, middle alphabetic row key for me; I believe US keyboards may have it top left of the numeric row) Had no idea- yes mine is top left. _____________________

I have a QWERTZ keyboard, 101 key German layout.
But it's all the same. I didn't know the Tilde key worked as well. SO for me it's: Ums. + Strg. + S _____________________

On the rare occasions when I want Mouselook screenshots, I use Screengrab, which is a freeware utility available here:
http://no-nonsense-software.com/freeware/ You just need to have it running and hit a hotkey combination (default is ALT+F12) to save a snapshot in any one of several formats. You can set the utility to ask for a filename each time, or autosave with a number, and you can set the folder to any one you want on your hard drive. Bloody useful little thing to have, and less hassle than having to Print Screen and then paste into another program each time. You can just rapid-fire screenshots one after the other, then pick out the best afterwards. _____________________

Thanks, will have to play at that, should be some interesting trial and errors!
I use IrfanView for on the fly screen captures, but will look at the other d/l too. _____________________

Ctrl+~ (tilde) saves the picture to your hard drive whereas the ctrl+shift+s prepares it for direct upload to SL, or even postcard or email.

On my keyboard the tilde is what you get when you hit ` plus shift. To take a picture I just hit Control plus ` (I know LL say tilde but I think they do that as the ` is so small you might not notice it), and the ` key is on the furthest left spot on the number row.
So, as I said, for me at least it's control plus ` _____________________
