The old method of hitting printscreen (usually twice for good measure) and then editing the photo in Gimp just wasn’t working for me anymore. Luckily I found this little shiny collection of 1’s and 0’s:

It has more features than I really need, but here is a list of the cool ones:

• Take a snapshot of the entire desktop.
• Take a snapshot of any Window, or menu.
• Take a snapshot of any rectangular area.
• Use an onscreen ruler to measure the size of, uh , onscreen stuff.
• A color picker that gives you the color value of any onscreen color.
• Basic transformation tools like flip, rotate and such.

You could pay $39 for Snag It or you could download this great tool.
