just curious... have you look in the folder called 'my pictures'?
go to start>>my documents>>my pictures
are the images there?
To edit the picture the print screen takes, goto paint or any other graphics program. And just paste it. Either of these will work. (Shift + Insert) (CTRL + V). If you want to put it into a text editor/word processor you may have to select paste special.

If you are still interested, in Clipboard.
When you click "Paste", it goes from there to Paint.
You need a Clipboard Viewer to see it, but you actually do not care.

you hit print screen, and then you go to:
start/programs/accessories/paint . then edit/paste.. you arethen offered a suggestion because the size is too big, and you say yes,, and voila.. there it is.
Now don't save it it BMP but in gif /jpg/or tif. this will make the file smaller to send my email. so if you want to send someone your desktop you can..
