Fabulous little screenshot application

UPDATE 14 FEB 07: Version 2 is out and it’s not free any more. Still a great little app…

Like many computer nerds, I find myself often wanting to take a screenshot of an application window or just a small region of the screen. Like everybody who has ever tried this, I have found Windows (XP)’s built-in ‘print screen’ function to be woefully inadequate.

Well, here’s a beaut little tool that’s free for non-commercial use: WinSnap.

WinSnap allows you to capture:

  • the whole screen, or
  • a user selected part of the screen, or
  • an application window, or even
  • a collection of application windows.

With this tool, you can

  • capture windows with rounded corners (without having the capture ‘square up’ the corners
  • rotate the captured windows
  • add drop shadows
  • add watermarks.

If you take screenshots, you WILL find this application useful.

Recommended.
