Hi,

questions on vmd are also very well suited to be put on the vmd mailing
list: vmd-l.ks.uiuc.edu

I assume loading the amber trajectory and selecting the frame you wish to
render in vmd worked fine? If the render snapshot option does not work
(you did not say what the problem was) try to generate a povray output
file, then render that using povray (free and part of many Linux distros
IIRC).

In my opinion, using a separate rendering engine apart from vmd allows you
more control over your picture and makes nice publication quality figures.
However, as a quick and simple approach, just take a screenshot and crop
it to size.
