I have wrote about FastStone Image Viewer previously on adding watermarks to photos. Since we are on the subject of screen capture or screen shots, I would also like to highlight the same features that is available with FastStone Image Viewer as well.
Let me go straight to the point. And it's free download.I mainly use FastStone Image Viewer batch conversion, watermarks and resizing but it is a good alternative for screen shots. I have an option to capture:
- Foreground Window
- Window/Object
- Rectangle Region
- FreeHand Region
- Full Screen
I can save the screenshot into the image viewer, clipboard or as a file and it support save format as jpeg, bmp, gif, png, tiff, pcx, tga and jpeg2000. For editing, I can set my favorite editing software link to open by right clicking the image taken in the image viewer. I hope this will be useful for those trying it. Should you have better alternative, please do let me know.

Thanks for the tips, I will give Faststone a try.
Excellent program, I've uninstalled two screen capture programs that I've been using for years because of this user friendly tool. I've needed this for a long time. I also highly recommend this program. THANKS.
