RE: Quick question, do any of you have software recommendations for screen
captures ?
I've used just about every screen capture program ever made for Windows and
DOS. I keep going back to two products: Paint Shop and Hypersnap.
If I need to tweak the image extensively, I use Paint Shop.
When all that I need is a quick capture of a screen, window, or region of
either - Hypersnap is it. If I'm going to be grabbing screens for an
extended project, I put it into my startup menu so that I can use it with a
quick keystroke. You can do limited image manipulation, and can print
directly from Hypersnap (not all programs can do that simple task). It saves
to most graphics formats. $25 US.
