3. paste into the paint screen (if it won't let you right click, try control & V) a copy of the whole fluff page appears.
4. select the cropping tool (little square box, top right of the tool kit) and outline the habitat picture from the fluff page, including the text at the bottom if you want.
5. right click on the selected area and copy
6. open new paint page (file & new)
7. paste the pic you just copied into the new page, name it, save as a jpeg (use the dropdown to select, the default is a usually bitmap until you change it.
