For Classic Google website the images are perfect. But for New Google websites the images are distorted.

Need alternative of SiteShoter for taking screen-shots of webpage

There is some comment on "Notice for IE9" which suggest registry changes.
I do not want to fiddle with registry.

Is there alternative software for taking screen-shots of webpage ?

Ath:
ScreenshotCaptor is quite good at this, I use it for multi-page screenshots from browsers on a regular (like weekly) basis. It does take a little getting used to, but mouser made a lot of video tutorials on the subject. Recommended!

Hi Ath,

I use SiteShoter as automated tool to download the given links in a text file as image in a given folder.

Batch file code

--- ---d:\Portables\siteshoter\SiteShoter.exe /RunConfig "d:\Portables\siteshoter\apps_sites.cfg"
Text file containing

--- ---https://sites.google.com/site/stickanote/
https://sites.google.com/site/tellwhendone/
...

I could not find similar feature in ScreenshotCaptor. Can you guide me how to use ScreenshotCaptor in place of SiteShoter for same purpose ?

Regards,

Anand

You can try wkHTMLtoPDF (or to image). The name says to pdf but it can save the output as a graphic as well. I did this for awhile when I needed to grab info from a PRTG monitoring page periodically for troubleshooting or historical reference.
