What's your favorite screen cap software and why? I'm thinking of investing in some.

My favorite is the "Print Screen" key that's built into most keyboards. It works great. I've taken probably 3000+ MFC screenshots this way.

I use print screen for stills. Cam Studio for video though it doesn't work quite right on Windows 7 so far. I'm trying to tweak it though.

Lightscreen http://lightscreen.sourceforge.net/ it's free and has lots of cool features like autosave and being able to just cap a user defined area of a screen.

Thanks for posting about the snipping tool.

Now I don't have to bother with looking for software

It was taking me forever to find out how to change a MS word (my room rules) into a JPG!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

There's also this freeware: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/mwsnap.html

I'm trying to find one that will take multiple screencaps in succession without having to take the time to save each one between captions.

... If you happen to use a mac, using "Grab" from the Utilities folder will take screencaps for you in a few various ways: Selection, Window, Screen and Timed Screen.

Not sure if you're still looking since this is over a year old, but I use Irfanview for that.

I've used Snap'n'Drag and Ducklink for taking screen stills. Between the two of them, you can get almost any variation of options. What I like about Ducklink is, you can get an entire window, even if it doesn't fit on the screen.

I haven't done much as far as video capture but there's a relatively new and inexpensive app called "Screeny" that seems to be adequate for simple captures.

and I use Auto Screen Capture http://autoscreen.sourceforge.net/

No install required, and you can control how many pics it takes and how long it is between each pic, but it's kinda weird for the timing controls...
