Saving a drawing in a Picture Box

[J. Giudice]

I have an test app where I am drawing some stuff in a picture box. Now I
want to enable the user to be able to save that to a file as an image.

I know how to save an image, but how do I get what is drawen on the picture
box control to become an image? Or, is there some other way?
