Hmmm.... Never thought of it that way 
On topic, I don't think CivIII features automatic screenshots... Not like Starcraft or something, that is. I think the only way is to just hit Print Scrn, go to, say, Paint, and then paste. It'll be your sceenshot, and from there, you can save it 
EDIT: And if SlowwHand is right and you are just looking for screenshots to look at, just do a little search at http://www.google.com "CivIII Screenshots" That should get you far. (http://www.altavista.com will work as well, but really, I think you know  )

Your Rand quote isn't quite right.

Ok, I've figured out the prtscreen and paste in my paint program bit. Then what do I do (I apologize to those of you for whom this is really, really, easy) in order to be able to post a screenshot such that it appears as part of the post, like you often see in the succession games? Please recall that, although I'm a pretty hardcore gamer, I'm shocking inept at anything else relating to computers, so please go step-by-step. Thanks.

Alright, so you pressed prtscreen and pasted into paint. Now, save the image. You know how the saving bit goes?  File --> Save as... And then enter name and hit the save button. Your file is now saved in the directory where you chose to save it. Now, it is a .bmp file. To post it here, you want it to be small, and since .bmp files aren't small, you want it to be .gif or .jpg. Well, unfortunately, you need other programs to change a .bmp to a .jpg or a .gif. You can't do that with paint. One program that does support this, is Paintshop Pro. Download this at http://www.jasc.com, install, register (it takes you from step to step I guess ) and when you're in the prog, just load the .bmp you saved earlier. When it's on your screen, don't do anything but just save it again. Now, select to save it as .gif or .jpg, in the bar underneath the bar where you can enter the filename. It will ask a question or two, just say yes. It's gonna be allright, no need for panic Now, you have a pic that can be posted here. In order to post it here, you need to attach the file using the tools included with this message board....
Downloading Paintshop Pro is not necessary though. There are many programs that support .bmp to .jpg/.gif converting... Others are listed in this thread, and maybe someone else can tell you some more.

But what would be the http: path if you wanted it to appear in the message body, rather than just attach it?

Something like this:

It would have to be on a server somewhere. For most people, servers are remote, so they could FTP the file.
