Screenshot Captor featured on lifehacker

Freeware application Screenshot Captor is an advanced, full-featured screenshot application boasting an impressive feature set that rivals the shareware favorite, SnagIt. For example, Screenshot Captor has tons of options for capturing your full screen, specific regions or selected windows; it has excellent callout functions, like standard arrows and highlighting tools along with the excellent blur effect you see in the screenshot above; and it can automatically open screenshots in your favorite image editor or email screenshots as soon as you take them. In all, Screenshot Captor may be the most full-featured screenshot app I've seen, freeware or otherwise. On the other hand, it does have a slightly steeper learning curve, so if there's a downside, that may be it. Screenshot Captor is donationware, Windows only.

As I was getting my daily dosage of news feeds, I encountered a familiar name in the title on one of them; Screenshot Captor

Lifehacker seems to be very impressed by it, and says:

Removed the link to Dirhael's other post (and thread) on this...

Just as well because at least one of my postings should have said:

Congratulations mouser  :Thmbsup:! (and now does...)

I love ScreenShot Captor! Seriously! I don't have a use for many of the DC Apps, but SCC is constantly one of the first things installed on my system after an upgrade/format.
