[solved] Hello and problem with Keybindings

First of all, Hello Everybody!   I've been using Xfce for about three years now, and absolutely love it!  I thought I'd finally take the plunge and join the forums.

Anyway, I was going through the forums and came across this http://forum.xfce.org/index.php?topic=2401.0 link on how to use windows key to bring up the menu.  Anyway, I followed the tutorial, but decided it wouldn't work because it interfered with a lot of my existing compiz shortcuts.  Anyway, I tried using an xmodmaps gui called XKeyCaps, but now it seems it totally messed up all my keymappings!  I already had to reset my up, down, left and right buttons, but now I can't do print screen either!  Can anyone help me troubleshoot this to fix it?

Thanks in advance,

So all I had to do is restart, and I was all set because xmodmaps doesn't load automatically by default.  Yay.
