It shouldn't be any different than on any other version of windows.
From the Wiki:
"The screenshot is stored in the screenshots subdirectory of the City of Heroes application directory (C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\screenshots, unless City of Heroes was installed to a different directory)."

Also, Win7 gives you a little app called 'Snipping Tool'. Makes it very handy when you want to take a screenie while within the character creator.
I have it attached to my Task Bar for ease of use. Icon looks like this...
I still have no clue what so ever on how to get to my screenshots. that chain does not exist according to a case sensitive search and my folder only has the launcher, the website, plaync account registration, and uninstall. so what i need is step by step info on how to get to my screenshots.
You appear to be trying to find it via the "START" button where all your shortcuts are stored.
There isn't a shortcut to the folder.
You have to use windows explorer to go to the directory directly.
(or browse to it while in a picture display/editor).
The path is: C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\screenshots
and the screenshots will be files within that folder
(If you're running a 64 bit OS then it will be: C:\Program Files (x86)\City of Heroes\screenshots)
You can also put the path into the search entry in Vista/Win 7 (or the "run" command entry in XP) and it will pop open an explorer window to the folder.
Note that if you installed city into some other directory than the default setup, you'll have to explore/browse to that directory instead of the paths listed above.
Basically screenshots are stored in a sub-directory off of the City of Heroes main directory.

Click on the start button. Just above that, there's "Search programs and files." Type in:
Screenshots
and give it a second. You may have more than one screenshots folder if you have multiple games. If you click on "See more results," it'll open up the results in an Explorer window so you can check them all out.
Alternately, if you search by name, search on:
screenshot_
as all COH screenies start that way.
The default directory, however, will be c:\program files (x86)\City of Heroes\Screenshots
