Screen Grabbing - what do you use?

[Big Frank]

Many Xartists, especially those of us who create tutorials, use screen grabs a lot. The built-in way is to hit Ctrl + PrntScr or Alt + PrntScr and then paste the image into your working file, but there are better ways to do it using any one of the many little utilities out there. Vista comes with its own built in which isn't bad, but it's fairly limited and I have used two little Utilities before, both of which I liked but both of which were buggy, "Captureur" and "FGWndGrab Screen Grab Utility".

1. What do you use?

2. Don't you think it would be great if Xtreme incorporated its own screen grab function?

FastStone Capture is also good. http://www.faststone.org/FSCaptureDetail.htm

I have to admit to being in the iceage still. I hit 'print screen', open up IrfanView and save it in my 'MyPictures' or 'XaraGallery' folders.

That you creak you hear are my bones.

Ditto to what she said that they didn't say. Without the other part.

I just Print Screen and paste into Xara. Then export
