“Simple and functional screenshot program”

by Elena Santos about Screenshot Captor

Screenshot Captor is a low-resource, highly flexible screenshot app for PC.

Screenshot Captor enables you to capture images in a variety of ways, ranging from the active window to a fixed size zone and including objects, scrolling windows (great for capturing sites from top to bottom) and even your entire working space, which means that if you have multiple monitors, Screenshot Captor will capture all of them.

But the best is yet to come: Screenshot Captor includes an excellent set of filters and special effects for your screenshots: frames, borders, shadow effects, blurring and a lot more. We tried all of them and were really happy with the results, although the program could do with more extensive undo features.

We also found some really good tools in Screenshot Captor, like the ability to automatically generate thumbnails from images or a zoom that can go up to an impressive 999%. You can actually see every single pixel in the image! The app also boasts extensive task bar options, and a really nice mini-interface after taking a screenshot, both of which make your job much easier.

Screenshot Captor may feel overwhelming, but give it a chance, it's really worth it!

Pros
  • Great variety of capturing options
  • Many filters and effects to apply
  • Doesn't take up much resources
  • Simple to use
Cons
  • Takes a while to get to grips with the tool
  • Interface looks a little old fashioned

Developer's description

If, for any reason, you need to make screenshot captures relatively frequently (or only on occasion), Screenshot Captor is the ideal program, as much for its usability as for its characteristics and advantages, which include all that is necessary in this type of program.

Since it allows you to assign a number of distinct keyboard combinations for each type of capture (active window, entire screen, region to Clipboard…) it is optimized to make multiple consecutive captures with little intervention from the user. It also keeps saving the files in the folder that you assigned, using correlative names included in a folder.

Once you have all your captures, you will be able to set a series of effects like retrieving one part of the image while the rest remains hidden or of a grayish tone, tracing a colour square to retrieve a certain area of the capture or setting a shade effect to the whole image. Screenshot Captor also includes an integrated file manager that can be configured to open the captured image directly in your favorite graphics editor, even though it also offers a variety of customization possibilities.
