Been using FSCapture for a long while. But now I switched to Screenshot Captor, since i create dumps as part of bugtracking where arrows and annotation are heavily used.

Not as user friendly and polished as FSCapture but more powerful (better editing features, flexibility, filenaming syntax, autoupload to ftp etc.)

If it’s supposed to be a portable app also, does anyone know why it tries to set itself up when you execute the file to run each time windows starts up?

I don’t want to risk running this app on a public computer in which I shouldn’t be “installing” or running my own apps on to find that it does actually do something to the local PC, e.g. amend registry, load itself at start up each time, etc…

Any ideas please?

I made a FS shot of this very page and whole sections were cut out like it was going for a specific height.

That was the only reason I found it interesting too vs. the Hoversnap that I’ve been using, but I’ll try some of these others too. Thanks.

Another feature that needs to be added: timed screenshots.
I need this at times to take screenshots of games that suppress all sorts of hotkeys. This fairly simple feature is available with Faststone Capture and really needs to be included with PicPick.

I tried PicPick, comparing it to FSCapture. Although it has a lot of great functions, it seemed to be missing one important element of Auto Scroll capturing.
I opened up “Internet Options” through the Control Panel, and clicked on the “Advanced” tab. There’s a long scrolling list of options there. There is also a scroll bar on the bottom of the window, scrolling from side to side, because some entries are too wide for the small window.
FSCapture not only scrolls the window up and down, but side to side, so that all of the windows content are captured. PicPick only scrolled down the window, so some of the longer entries (longer, as in left to right) were cut off. maybe my experience was unique. It would be interesting to know if others have this problem. If so, hopefully the author of PicPick can add side to side scrolling.

@Rarst: I’m an FSCapture guy myself, but I was in need of “fixed region” and “repeat last” type captures in the past. I just may make the switch.

@Mchal: thanks for bringing these up. Looking at these titles for possible reviews.

@Paul: indeed it doesn’t. Try writing the author and requesting, I’m sure its easy enough to implement.

This doesn’t have one feature of the free winsnap that I love and will no longer go without – the shadows. So much nicer to look at, and looks so much more professional. I wish winsnap had annotation tools, I’d be in heaven.

Samer,

Sorry for being off-topic, but, since you mentioned PhotoScape in this review, I would like to point you out this:

I guess you may get an interest in making a future review of the apps from it.

Regards.

Interesting one, more additional tools than average. I suspect it won’t move me from bliss of FSCapture bu will still try it. Who knows. Someone has to outperform FSCapture sooner or later.
