• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

A rather neat little screenshot utility...

Our newest staffer, Richard Buettner, has reviewed the freeware Screenshot Studio Express. It's rather a neat first review, and a neat product to boot :)

Check it out here

I've always used Fraps for images and video, but that looks good too.
 
I installed the freeware utility Grabber2k about ten years ago. It remains the most flexible, yet simple to use screen capture program I've examined...

...and I've looked at most of 'em that've been released; well over one hundred so far.

It will capture an unlimited number of images, and save in any one of ten different formats, from .bmp, .jpg, .png, etc. It will capture a single screen, multiple monitors, or any selected portion of a screen, with or without cursor...

With a memory 'footprint' of less than 2k, I let it load when the computer boots, so it's always available when needed...

...since I have it assigned to the "Print Screen" key, it's totally automatic and unobtrusive. :typing:
 
I've been using HyperSnap for ages.... a bit 'heavy' for the occasional shooting, but invaluable if you do a lot of graphics work connected to the shooting.

Same here Francois. But I still use FSScreensaver to capture and HyperSnap to convert. I've got an older version but it's a great tool to work with changing photo sizes and cropping. And it saves in jpeg format.
