Another fast way is to copy anything on your computer screen is to use shift/Print Screen buttons.  This copies your entire screen.  Then use a program like Irfanview (free download on the internet) to paste into.

Once loaded in Irfanview, you can crop any section of your screen shot and save it as a jpg or gif file.  Irfanview also allows for easy resizing and basic color corrections.

I use this all the time at work for documentation purposes.

I found a handy free utility, Pixie, for grabbing screen color values.  Very useful when making CSS style sheets.

Sorry, non-oil issue.  But totally and way cool nonetheless.

I take full credit for taking it off-topic. My apologies to Khebab for posting the question. I didn't expect to get this many responses - and so quick. You guys are great. I just wanted to pull some Iraq numbers off a PDF. You and Dragonfly get full points as well.

There's a cool Firefox extension that does that.  I don't know how I lived without it.

IIRC, it's called "Colorzilla."  

Can't check right now, because I don't have it installed on this computer.
