I never really needed it, but now that I'm starting to overclock, I'm curious. I've seen people posting their actual screenshots, not pictures from camera, from their UEFI Bios.

How can I do that?

I've got an AsRock Z68 Extreme 3 Gen 3.

Some UEFI setups do include a screenshot function that saves the pictures to a FAT32 USB drive that needs to be connected beforehand.

Most mainboards with this function use the F12 key, but it may vary (consult the manual or onscreen-help).

Example on an ASUS mainboard, that also asks you which thumb drive you want to save to:

Perhaps you might want to take a look at a similar question on Superuser. I am not sure if UEFI has any advantage over BIOS on this regard but it used to not be possible under BIOS.

Footnote: As of last year(9/14/2011 ), even Anandtech was not above posting photos of the screen.
