THANKS TO SNAGIT

Dan the technical writer and his family gathered around for
Thanksgiving dinner.

Each year they placed three kernels of corn beside their plates. For
each kernel, they stated one thing they were thankful for.

Dan's sister picked up her kernel and said, "I'm thankful for my job."

Dan's niece said, "I'm thankful for my family."

It was Dan's turn. He pulled a handful of corn from his pocket.

"I'm thankful that SnagIt - the leading screen capture software - can
capture:

· Scrolling windows
- Cascading menus
- Any object onscreen
- Videos of onscreen activity
- Output sent to the printer
- All the images from a Web site
- DOS screens
- Images from digital cameras and scanners
- Extended windows
- Fixed regions . . ."

"Dan, the food's going to get cold," his sister interrupted.

"Oh - it's just that SnagIt helps me every single day at work, and
it's just fitting to pay it tribute on THANKSgiving," Dan explained.

His family continued to take their turns. When it came around to Dan
again, he said, "I'm thankful that SnagIt images can be saved in 20
different formats, including BMP, JPG, GIF - "

After Dan finished his litany of praises, he dug into his meal. It
was amazing - with SnagIt in his life, the milk was a little creamier,
the turkey a little tastier, and the pumpkin pie a little sweeter.

"SnagIt doesn't just improve my work," Dan thought. "It improves my
well-being."
