rootbear75 Posted November 1, 2007 Report Posted November 1, 2007 (edited) thought this might be useful when dealing with screenshots of the browser window: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5648 FireShot is a Firefox extension that creates screenshots of web pages. Unlike other extensions, this plugin provides a set of editing and annotation tools, which let users quickly modify captures and insert text and graphical annotations. Such functionality will be especially useful for web designers, testers and content reviewers. It's possible to choose whether entire web page or only visible part of this page should be captured. Screenshots can be saved to disk (PNG, JPEG, BMP), copied to clipboard, e-mailed and sent to external editor for further processing. Adds the ability to take a screenshot of web page (entire or visible part), edit it, add annotations and save (PNG, JPEG, BMP), copy to clipboard, send to external editor or e-mail it. see the demo BTW: HAHA IE users... u suck EDIT: Fixed Typo Edited November 2, 2007 by rootbear75
Drake7707 Posted November 1, 2007 Report Posted November 1, 2007 (edited) whats wrong with the PrntScrn key on your keyboard ? Looks like overkill to me Edited November 1, 2007 by Drake7707
»Ceiu Posted November 2, 2007 Report Posted November 2, 2007 That'd only be neat if it created a screenshot of the entire page, not just the viewport. As already stated: anyone with a functional print screen button and any image manipulation tool (ms paint?) can do what this program does. This is just adding unnecessary bloat to FF and the extension DB.
rootbear75 Posted November 2, 2007 Author Report Posted November 2, 2007 it DOES do a screenshot of the WHOLE page...
Drake7707 Posted November 2, 2007 Report Posted November 2, 2007 ah then i read the description wrong (entire oR visible part),
rootbear75 Posted November 2, 2007 Author Report Posted November 2, 2007 ah then i read the description wrong (entire oR visible part),ya, thats a spelling error directly off of the site for it.
candygirl Posted November 2, 2007 Report Posted November 2, 2007 Naaa Print Screen works for me.. I dont need any new progs right now but anyway thanks for the link root
rootbear75 Posted November 2, 2007 Author Report Posted November 2, 2007 its not a separate program... its an extension of firefox
rootbear75 Posted November 2, 2007 Author Report Posted November 2, 2007 I dont use firefox :/BTW: HAHA IE users... u suck
candygirl Posted November 2, 2007 Report Posted November 2, 2007 I dont use firefox :/BTW: HAHA IE users... u suck I use what works for me... I can say you suck for using firefox but im not you.
Samapico Posted November 3, 2007 Report Posted November 3, 2007 ff fanboy... I can't stand them. Compare FF with IE7 and you'll understand you,ve been losing alot of time crapping on IE users.
Russky Posted November 3, 2007 Report Posted November 3, 2007 well i don't think it matters which one you use in the end because as long as the browser gets the job done fast its good i just like firefox for the pop add blocker as well as that thing that takes away adds off the page i used to go to a site a lot but not until I used IE I realized how many adds it got
JDS Posted November 3, 2007 Report Posted November 3, 2007 (edited) any body who is willing to say 'my thing is better than your thing and you suck for not using mine' is a !@#$%^&* mah 2 cents Edited November 3, 2007 by JDS

But I always used strict cookies (aka 'ask for every cookie') so that's why I'm probably getting 10x less popups than most people. So it doesnt depend on the browser, it just depends how you use it. (Though I totally agree that FF > IE6, only for the tabbed browsing )
Incomplete Posted November 7, 2007 Report Posted November 7, 2007 I prefer FF, just seems to work all the time where IE always crashes for me or goes really slow :/
rootbear75 Posted November 8, 2007 Author Report Posted November 8, 2007 I stand corrected -- handy little tool.see what i mean?its a lot easier than print screening and copying to MSPaint... it automatically opens another window to edit in
Samapico Posted November 8, 2007 Report Posted November 8, 2007 I think I (or someone else) should write a small app to handle screenshots...I'd want it to pop up a dialog with Save... Edit... Cancel when you hit the specified shortcut (shift+printscr or something) and it would save as PNGshift+alt+printscr would grab the active windowshift+ctrl+printscr would let you select an area There are tons of OMGEZSNAPSHOTSSS programs out there, but they all suck as far as I know
»Ceiu Posted November 8, 2007 Report Posted November 8, 2007 You wouldn't even need to go that far. Just hook into the existing print screen functionality. After it's pressed and does it's normal operations, just have your app take over for the region stuff. The only problem you'd have is figuring out where the screenshot in the clipboard came from on the screen (if it's not a fullscreen ss). Aside from that though, it wouldn't be a whole lot of work.
