Screen Capture (Visual Basic) 2008 – 2010

Screen Capture (Image of my finished Example)

Hey everyone.. First of all this is my 2nd VB Program, and as a total NEWBIE in Visual Basic or Programing, I am trying to follow in the steps of our developers from Im-Integrations, Imfiles and some in Dutchplace.Nl, that I AM FAR FROM YET….. :D! My time for being online is cut more than half, since we have an Internet-CoffeeShop to take care of, as we call it in Denmark (NetCoffeeShop! And on top of that I have to tc of my forum as well and also try to follow up with our other forums too. I am sorry that I cant be that much online! But I do my best:

So after Balool developing is in Pause, I had to come up with something! ! Since I know the next step will be a new type of Balool, using VB, NET, C+++! Almost sure about that! Now I am trying to help other newbies like myself, to get involved. And get ready for our next round of Balool! I have made a little Screen Capture program, which is a good start for us NEWBIES, Hope you guys will start liking it and this way get invovled too! Thanks!

This is MY contribution to Im-Integrations.com, Dutchplace.nl, Imfiles.com and China-Cheats.com!
