Creating an image of my system

Sorry if this is a dumb question (still new to Linux) but is there a way I can make an image or an iso of my live system and boot it up on another system or on a virtual machine to test stuff out on. Currently running CentOS 7.

Why is itsfoss.com banned?

I've been using that to find new software for a while, and I tried to crosspost something I saw in /r/LinuxUsersGroup but apparently that domain isn't allowed on this sub.

Is it a bad source/disreputable in some way?

Let's help find a cure for covid-19!!

I came across a project called folding@home in another sub which allows you to donate your computing power to help researchers find cures for covid-19 and some other terrible illnesses. I already had debian installed on a couple old laptops so I booted them up and installed the software. I hought this would be a great place to share it because the software is already packaged for a few Linux distributions and it's a great cause, also a cool way for you to put your old computers to good use.

If you'd like to check it out, you can find the project here: https://foldingathome.org/

Why I consider switching back to Windows.

I have been using Linux for half a year now and it's wonderful and I really want to keep using it but there is something I struggle with for the last six months.
My switch to Linux wasn't spontaneous. I tried to find a replacement for every pice of software I used on Windows and when I though I found, I switched.
Despite that after all this time I think Linux lacks good creative software. I mostly do photo editing, digital art and video production. Now krita, gimp and darktable combined are a good enough replacement for Photoshop however the video editing software is just horrible, the only one that is working OK on my hardware is Kdenlive but it's not perfect and I miss very much adobe premiere.
There are many reasons why I want to keep using Linux though. I love the privacy and security, amazing and supportive community, lack of proprietary software and many more but since I'm not able to do my creative work as quickly and easily as I used to I'm seriously thinking about horrible windows 10. Please give me a reason to stay with Linux
