Don't know whether GalCiv has a specific screenshot fuction, but you can do it the same way as with any other application: Press the "PrintScreen" key on year keyboard, this buffers the current screen in the clipboard. Then open any imaging program (Microsoft Paint will do, and it's packaged with Windows, so you should have it anyways) and paste the clipboard content into it with Ctrl-V.

you can avoid the copy/paste step (and thus avoid having to minimize the game, and also giving you the ability to take screen shots in rapid succession) with a handly freeware utility that'll automatically create an image file of your screen when you press Print Screen.

i use Hoversnap, apperantly Infranview also has this function, and there's another program that'll do it whose name i can't think of off the top of my head. a quick google should set you right up.

cheers
