Hi Ergun,
you can right-click the picture and pick copy. Then you can paste it into your favorite image editor, e.g. Paint, and save it from there in any format you desire and is supported by it. Paint itself supports jpg, gif and png, so you should be fine with just using it.

Be nice if there was an export feature to "save as" a graphics file directly from Onenote without having to go through the out/in/out steps using an image editor.

A hidden trick: When you take a screen clipping, the screen clip is in the clipboard. If you open PPT, you can do a paste onto a slide and you will see your screen clip. Right click the image and select Save as Picture and you can save in a wide variety of graphic formats.
It still takes a couple of more steps than just right clicking it from OneNote, but it is much quicker than the obvious way....

Thanks for that. But as you say it additional steps.
It would be great if one could just let a whole bunch of screen clippings go into OneNote on their own and then later go in and export selected ones to an image file that could be used elsewhere.

The OneNote team is definitely not short of ideas of new features for OneNote. The team replied to a lot of feature suggestions in the beta newsgroup that they had thought of it, wanted to do it, but just didn't have the resources to do it. Simply put, they have a long wish list, but need to prioritize it, because their resources have a limit.

Understood. My ramblings were more rhetorical than an actual feature request or suggestion.

A workaround, certainly. But isn't using PPT a bit of overkill? And a bit too many steps too.
For things like that (and not only that <!>) I'm using "IrfanView" - a truely fantastic piece of software for 1001 things handling images. The best thing: It's freeware. www.irfanview.com
I'm having the whole Adobe CS Suite as well as Macromedia but if it comes to easy things as pastuing from the clipboard, resizing images, cutting off parts, converting formats etc. I just use the superfast lightweight.
If you don't have it, RUN (not walk) to collect it: www.irfan.view.com.
Don't miss the plug-ins. It's a great multimedia player too.

Yeah, it probably is overkill. And, yeah, I use Irfan view for this (or I use SnagIt) just as often as PPT.

Interesting that you mention SnagIt too. I'm using the latest version which really offers much, especially the "Studio" which I often use for commenting images. Wish it had "ink support" ...
