Product Description:

InstantShot!: screen capturing, the smart way.

Do you often use screenshot software and feel that something is missing? Don't you feel like they're not so efficient and that they are way too complicated? Tired of long menus? If you answered "yes" to one or more questions, InstantShot! is the software for you!

InstantShot!: the answer to your screencapturing troubles in just a few Kbytes.

What are the features of InstantShot! ?
InstantShot! offers classical screenshot functionality for capturing the whole screen, a portion of it or a window and also the option to make timed screenshots or to make delayed captures over time. It offers a wide range of possibilities and options to better fit everyone's needs.

How does InstantShot! works?
InstantShot! creates an icon in the menu bar. Clicking on the icon, a menu will appear. Select the capture type from the menu (whole screen, a portion of screen, timed screenshot or multiple captures) or, if you want to change the save format, select the desired one from the submenus and then... capture!

Which image formats are supported?
InstantShot! can save images in Tiff, Jpg and Png format and to the clipoard so you can import the image directly in other applications.

Will InstantShot! occupy space on my desktop?
Absolutely not! InstantShot! doesn't appear in your dock or on your desktop!

Great Tool! - Version: 2.5, 7/18/2009 09:24AM PST

I've been using InstantShot! for about 1.5 years and it has become my favorite screenshot tool. I don't even use the other ones i've downloaded anymore. Just too convenient to use from the menubar.

DMG file could not open - Version: 2.5, 6/12/2009 11:18AM PST

After two separate downloads, the DMG file is not recognized for mounting. downloads of click, desktopcurtain, backdrip,dvdcapture all went well. Using 10.5.7 on a 3 months old imac, fully updated.

Still Like FreeSnap Better - Version: 2.5, 5/22/2008 04:43AM PST

I've used FreeSnap since it was created. It still works fine OSX Leopard. You can still save in a multitude of formats, you can select where you want your screenshot saved. InstantShot is a pretty good start. I'll stay with FreeSnap!
