Free screen capture software

Snippy is the most efficient screen capture software I have seen till date : its free, it’s light at only 88Kb and needs no installation. When snippy is run it is hidden in the notification area , but when you click on it a “capture pointer” appears which lets you draw the required area. Or you can press shift to draw a rectangle. It supports up to 5 image formats for saving. In contrast to other applications all communication with snippy can be done through and only through the right click on notification area icon. Snippy is really a great piece of software with an appropriate name and a matching icon. Try it out today itself.

Pros :
really lite (88Kb) and requires no installation, Not system hungry, Supports five image formats, no irritating window, Hot Key allowed – F11 (changeable), border width and color changeable. Snippy ‘s captured files are not lost even if you forget to save, they are automatically saved as JPEG to user temp folder which is “C:Documents and SettingsUSERNAMELocal SettingsTemp” with filenames Snippyxxx.jpg

Cons :
No timer functions, the border drawn is also included in captured image which can be irritating, No video capture. (Actually you cant blame Snippy. After all it is really lite and easy to use, it keeps all the promises to you)
