I thought that the screenshot function was supposed to be in with the power button? Mine is not...so am I going to have to download an app?

Volume down + camera button = picture
I didn't have any luck with that. I am using ADW EX and I also tried the stock launcher. I got spoiled with using Cyn Mod with my droid and it was in the power button option.

You have to hold volume down and the power button for a few seconds until it takes the screenshot, never had a problem with it.

I'm not sold on the wallpaper yet and think I'll end up with something dark to help conserve battery, but here's what I've got so far:

You can't
I'm sure you'll be able to if you root however.
Edit: Maybe I'm wrong since I'm seeing more people with it removed.
Edit #2: Go into Settings -> Apps -> All -> Google Search -> Disable.

Settings > Apps > All > Google Search and disable it, unfortunately you still wont be able to use that screen space, but it will be gone.
np, glad it worked.

this is what i'm using:
[APP] Nova Launcher Beta (ICS based) - xda-developers
gives you a customizable grid (hate the stock 5x4 on such a large screen), resizable widgets, removable search bar, the ability to change icons, and so much more. the best part is that it was written directly from ICS code for ICS phones. it is not a "skinned" version of LauncherPro, ADW, GoLauncher, etc.

Alright, this thing is frustrating me. I hit the Vol- +PWR and all I get is the volume control dropping! I tried syncing my presses in various combinations and FINALLY got a screenshot: with the volume bar showing! 
So PLEASE tell me how you guys are doing this...

Hold them down at same time for a couple seconds. Make sure you turn the volume rocker all the way down first tho.

You have to hit them at the same time and hold them for a few seconds. Takes a bit to get used to but you will get the hang of it.
Edit: beat me to it
