At first glance, Snapashot could be your regular screen capturing tool. It can help you grab what’s on screen and place them on your favorite image editing tool. You can think of it as a “Print Screen” tool except that it can capture almost anything on the screen.

But the application offers something more than regular screen capturing. Native screen capture tool will capture everything on the screen – including toolbars, web addresses and even the taskbar will be captured. This could pose a problem especially when you’re planning to share the screen captures since your personal data will be shared as well. You could cut them through an editing tool but it could take some time.

Snapashot on the other hand provides complete control to the user on screenshot size. When the see the screen that needs to be captured, users will just launch the application where they can select which area to be captured. Since the application is very small (only 74kb), it can be launched in an instant. No installation is required since it works with .Net Framework which is a required application before Snapashot could be used.

A pro version is also available which give users better screen resolution, editing with text and borders and unlimited support from developers. But the free version is powerful enough for personal use as it provides a decent screen capture with full customization in terms of size. The screen captured image could be saved in five image formats for easy sharing and editing on different image editing tools.
