Programs to 'print screen'

HI,

I have been looking for a program to capture images, that can save the files to Jpegs instead of the windows default of bitmap images. I found two free programs one called 'Hoversnap', 'print screen', and one shareware program called 'HyperSnap' > Just wondering if anyone has heard of these programs?

Thanks

 

Re: Pograms to 'print screen'

I use ScreenHunter (free) which makes jpegs. It was recommended in a newsletter. I've heard of Hoversnap, but never used it.

printkey 2000 is what I use, never tried anything else.

I use Gadwin Systems' PrintScreen v3.1 which is free. www.gadwin.com

Seems noone can answer your question . Sadly , nor can I . But , since everyone seems to offer alternatives , I would like to add one to the pot . TechSmith's " SnagIt " . I like it and works exceptionally well .
Just my 1 and a half cents anyway

Hoversnap is great. Been using it for ages.
Can save file type of your choice and size, to a folder of your choosing.

Here's the interface;

i use hoversnap too. once it's been launched i just leave it running in the systray then whenever i press prt/scn it takes a picture and puts it on the desktop.

either ctrl/print/screen or alt/prt/scrn will take a picture of the focused window and i think the other key combo will let you take a picture of what you want by clicking a mouse button and dragging.

Screenshot Captor is very good program:

Me too.

 

Re: Pograms to 'print screen'

I concur.
While HyperSnap-DX is a very good tool, SnagIt won my vote too.

Here are some more free Screen Capture tools not yet mentioned:
- Ace Winscreen
- Screenshot Pilot
- Solid Capture
- TurboSnap
- Neoshooter
- FastStone Screen Capture

All those tools will do what you've been looking for.
It's only a matter of preference for one or the other.
Try some out and see what you like best.

 

Hey Eldar .
Between us we now have 3 cents

 

Already mentioned, but I use Gadwin PrintScreen for most screenshots, and ScreenShot Captor for doing a lot of them at the same time. ScreenShot Captor was just updated to do things like capturing everything in a scrolling screen.

 

Yes, we do.

Hey, I know someone who's been looking for that.

 

HyperSnap is excellent - best there is in my view because it can
also capture screens while playing games which is why I started
using it in the first place.

A great freebie, already mentioned, is the Donation Coder one
Excellent wee program
