El Stupido Question - spearmint - 10-08-2006

I just clipped a photo to the desktop. A minute later I forgot how I did it. I know 4 is involved.
Thanks!

Most of the time you can just click on it to highlight and drag it to the desktop.
You can also right click and "save to desktop"

shift + command + 4

Panopticon is right, if by "clipped" you mean "took a screenshot". Also known as a screen capture. There are a lot of little tweaks you can make to the shortcuts to capture just a given window, save it to the clipboard instead of the desktop, etc, etc…

shift commant 3 is the whole desktop, shift command 4 allows you to select with a little target that is the cursor.
