Bug Shooting: The Perfect Screen Capture Utility for Windows - Free

bug shooting Bug Shooting is an awesome screen capture program for Windows that is completely free and offers loads of features that are normally available only in commercial screenshot applications like SnagIt.

To give you an example, Bug Shooting has a "Delayed Capture" mode that is like setting a timer for your screen captures and can be used for grabbing menus & tool-tips.

Bug Shooting has a built-in screen magnifier that enlarges the screen area and helps you place the mouse cursor at the exact location on the screen before the screenshot.

And when you capture an area of the screen, Bug Shooting will draw cross-hairs indicating the exact co-ordinates much like SnagIt or the Camtasia Studio Recorder.

Now the best part of Bug Shooting is the included image editor that lets you annotate screenshots with standard tools like the freehand pen, text, etc. The impressive thing is the live preview - the changes can been seen as you hover over different colors or settings. Everything get stored in separate layers.

Re: #5 - There is a link to it right above the Google AdSense ads. The line that reads
“Bug Shooting - Also check out some more free screen capture software.”
The first two words (Bug Shooting) are a link.

Click the Bug Shooting link right above the Screen Capture Recording Ad on this page. Better yet here is a direct link to the download page.

Nice app.. downside is that it requires .net framework.. it would have been great if it was not dependent on any runtimes or frameworks…

#9 Software Testing 07.18.08

@Abhijeet Pathak, even the .net frame work is free to download… ;-)
