Everytime I've taken a screenshot the mouse did not appear.

yes you can

if you take the screen in front of you where you want to have a screenshot from and place your mouse on the place youwant it to be, then press the PrtSc button (next to F12). Go into your image editing program and press ctrl+v then the screenshot will appear

Love,

No i know how to take a screenshot!!!!!!!! but it never takes a screenshot of your ACTUAL mouse if you know what i mean. I was wondering if theres a way you take a screenshot with it showing the mouse!

Hmmmm. in Paint Shop Pro you can.

If you have it (or for whomever is lurking out there), go to File > Import > Screen Capture > Setup, click on "Full Screen", and make sure "Include Cursor" is checked. Then select your desired Hot Key (the key you press to take the screenshot). While PSP is open, hit the Screen Capture button (looks like a black camera), minimize PSP, hit your "Hot Key", and PSP will automatically paste your image onto a new canvas. Hope this helps.

no i don't know what you mean. Because the way i described it is the way that you can have your mousecursor in the screen because you make a screenshot with the keyboard.

Or do you mean you want to take a picture of your mouse like you take a picture with your webcam?

MaGiCSuN, there might be differences in os's or something because when I take a screenprint using prt scr, the cursor never shows up :) But epolady's advice worked for me so... yay :)
