Screenshot Captor / Re: Possible BUG: Grab Windows Object
« Last post by mouser on September 26, 2008, 08:09 PM »that is very strange! does it happen no matter what kind of object or application you capture?
A .png renamed to .bmp isn't a .bmp - it's still a .pngkatykaty, you are correct in 99% of the cases this would be true. however SC has a special functionality -- if you change the filename in the bottom panel, and you specify a file extension, SC will actually convert the file while it renames it




If you're one of those people who tries to grab his or her own preferred username on every new service that comes along, just in case the service becomes hot one day and you want to start using that cool ID, check out this new tool: Usernamecheck.
All it does is ask you for a user name, and then pings about 45 services so it can return to you "taken" or "available" for each one.
If a name is taken, it can't tell you if the owner of it is you or someone else (how would it know?), and there's as yet no way to add new sites for it to check--you have to wait for the developer to add them. Also, it's slow. And it doesn't appear to work on anything but Firefox.
But this is a useful tool for managing one's personal brand. And here's a tip for parents-to-be: Run your baby names through it, as well as through BustAName. Your kid might thank you.
