Maybe you didn’t noticed, by my previous post had at last screenshot that was made properly.

Here is a list of keyboard shortcuts that will do the trick:

• Command+Shift+3
  Take a screenshot of the screen, and save it as a file on the desktop
• Command+Shift+4, then select an area
  Take a screenshot of an area and save it as a file on the desktop
• Command+Shift+4, then space, then click a window
  Take a screenshot of a window and save it as a file on the desktop
• Command+Control+Shift+3
  Take a screenshot of the screen, and save it to the clipboard
• Command+Control+Shift+4, then select an area
  Take a screenshot of an area and save it to the clipboard
• Command+Control+Shift+4, then space, then click a window

In Leopard, the following keys can be held down while selecting an area (via Command+Shift+4 or Command+Control+Shift+4):

• Space, to lock the size of the selected region and instead move it when the mouse moves
• Shift, to resize only one edge of the selected region
• Option, to resize the selected region with its center as the anchor point

And now, when you think that I am master in Mac keyboard shortcuts I’ll disappoint you. This text was completely copied from MacRumors web page 🙂 You will find there also formats of screenshots, creating screenshot from terminal and third party applications and many. many more other guides.
