No problem getting screenshots. They are however, pdf files in the 1 Mb range. Some replies would require 4 or 5 shots, making the file size unwieldy. Preview has a regular file reduction command, which reduces the resolution dramatically. By adjusting the quartz filter(see previous post), the file is reduced by 90% with acceptable resolution(Compare my last two screenshots, (one at 1 Mb and one at 143 Kb). Physically, the file is still large to fit on a page, but the resize function in Preview(Pixel size) was removed in Leopard for some reason known only to Apple. It's liveable, but it would make for a neater post. I know it could be done in another app like iPhoto, but it's a lot smoother and faster just using Preview and one click.
