Guys a little tip for the windows users, especially if you dont have any additional graphics software. Any windows keyboard (or at least 99% of em) will have a "PrtScn" button translated - PrintScreen... it will capture the screen you are looking at.
That button is usually in the top right corner of the keyboard but can be in other location especially on the smaller laptop keyboards.

So how is this helpful? if you cant right click and save the image some some reason on ebay or another place. Just make sure you are looking at that image at is best quality on your screen and then click "PrnScn" button.

Then go to > Programs > Accesories > Paint (or Paint Editor)

Once there go to top menu > Edit > Paste. OR YOU CAN JUST CLICK "Ctrl +V" combination of keys. This will paste your screen you were looking at into the Paint program.

Then just crop out the image using the crop tool inside paint, once the image is cropped to go FILE > Save and Save it as a JPEG (JPG) image...

Then you are set and you can upload it.

P.S. > one thing to add, if image does not have a watermark I would recommend adding a small credit in text in your message with images
