Press the Print Screen SysRq button on your keyboard.
This will take a snapshot of your desktop. Now paste it in paint, save and upload.

Lead-oxide already gave the 'how to' in the previous page. But in any case if you're having difficulty in actually doing it then am giving you step by step instructions.
1) If you see at the top of the keyboard there will be a button called 'Print Screen SysRq'. Sometimes that button is also called 'PrtSc SysRq'. Anyways, it looks like this:
2) If you press this button, it takes a snapshot of your computer screen instantly. Since, in this case you're supposed to take a snapshot of your desktop, so first minimise any other programs that might be running. Once your desktop wallpaper is clearly visible, press 'Print Screen' button.
3) Go to 'Start' Menu, click on 'All Programs', then 'Accessories' and from there choose 'Paint'.
4) Once 'Paint' page is open, press 'Ctrl + V' or else click on 'Edit' and then choose 'Paste'.
5) The image of your desktop will appear on paint. Save this file (I hope you know how to do that so am not explaining it. 😛)
6) An additional info. Since you'll need to upload that image on the internet, it'll be better if the size of your saved file is small. You can do it in the following way, when saving from 'Paint' you can choose 'JPEG' from the 'Save As Type' drop down menu box in the 'Save As' box.
Another way is to save it as '24-bit Bitmap'. Then open the saved image in IrfanView. Go to File and click on 'Save As'. A 'Save Picture As' box will appear. At the bottom of this box you'll see three options, check the 'Show options dialog' box. Now, choose 'JPG-JPEG Files' from 'Save As Type' box. A dialogue box called 'JPEG/GIF save options' will appear just beside the 'Save Picture As' box. In that click on the sliding bar at the top and shift it towards the right hand extreme where 'Best' is written. Now save the file.
The second option gives a slightly better quality picture in JPEG format.
7) Next you need to host the saved image on a photo hosting website, like www.imageshack.us or www.photobucket.com
8) Once you hosted that pic on that website, you'll get several links. Choose 'Hotlink for forums (1)' if you're using 'Imageshack'. Copy that link and paste it here in India-Forums message box. You may want to delete the first and last part of the link once you pasted it here to avoid it being a hyperlink.
I'm giving you an example. Delete the part marked in RED and keep only the part marked in BLUE.
