Screen Catcher is a screen capture application capable of taking snapshots of screen images and saving them as PICT, GIF, or JPEG files. It also allows images to be captured to the clipboard or to Screen Catcher's own windows, where they can manipulated to change the color palette or reduce the number of colors in the image before copying or saving.
Screen Catcher allows you to:
• Precisely select an area before capturing an image
• Capture pulled down menus (with the Screen Catcher Extension)
• Capture the cursor on most Macintoshes
• Convert images to the standard 216-color web browser palette,
Microsoft Windows (R) palette, Macintosh color or grayscale
palettes, or an optimally chosen color palette
• Read and write progressive JPEG files
• Read and write GIF files with interlacing and transparency
• Reduce or change color palettes automatically
• Automatically name and save image files to any folder
• Copy and paste, drag and drop, and undo operations
• Generate URLs for images, including WIDTH and HEIGHT tags
