Snapshot Software

[Cyberbabe]

Hi :)

ATM i am using Screen Hunter for re sizable snapshots its freeware and works OK`ish but i need to take some snapshots in GIF format, is there any software for this (Freeware would be nice) :) grateful for any advice, thank you.

If this program you're using takes screenshots in a different format, you could open that file in Paint or other graphical software and save it in gif format.

if your using XP[ot]i think you are[/ot]<Alt> & <Print Screen / SysRq> = copy active window contents to clipboard, <Ctrl> & <Print Screen> = copy entire desktop to clipboard[ot]like your system pics in gallery[/ot]

Edit: your Firefox problem

Session restore

Fx 2.0 only: As a blogger and web mail user, it breaks my heart to recount how many times I've composed a long post or email message, then accidentally closed the tab or browser and lost all my work. No more! With Firefox 2, set the browser.startup.page key to 3 to restore your browsing session - with form entries intact! - every time you start your browser or undo close tab after a wayward click. Note: By default, Firefox 2 automatically restores your session if your browser crashes - but this does it every time you restart your browser normally. Thanks for the tip, Arun!

* Key: browser.startup.page
* Modified Value: 3
* Default: 1 (open your specified homepages)

BTW: start by entering

about:config

in the address bar

check FF options[ot]big hugs from donkey to Cyberbabe[/ot]

SF is FF but for Linux[ot]although support has being withdrawn, i'll switch to Seamonkey soon[/ot]

BTW: Maxthon is ok[ot]tried it briefly through Wine[/ot]but i didn't really give it much time

Right i have just loaded (faststone screen capture 5) om a mag front disk its free) and this looks quite good and it can snap dropdowns in jpeg , gif, bmp, tif, and pdf and has a floating Capture Panel that can be dragged "see pic"

I like Maxthon and one thing you can set each tab to refresh at a different time "see pic"
