Here’s a chance to grab a licensed copy of SnagIt for free. SnagIt, if you are new, is the best screen capture software for Windows that can record screencast videos as well.
Update: The offer has expired.
First download the SnagIt 7 installer and then head over to TechSmith to get a serial number for the software. You may want to hurry up as this offer will expire today at 5 PM EST.
Version 7 is not the latest version of SnagIt but it will definitely have more features that any of the free screenshot tools that you may be using on Windows including Jing. TechSmith launched a similar offer for SnagIt in 2007 as well.

That’s great that they’re offering it for free but when you go to TechSmith.com to get the serial number it says: “Please note this version is not compatible with Windows Vista”. Probably should have mentioned that in the article.

Awesome “Please note this version is not compatible with Windows Vista”

According to the site, it’s not compatible with Vista. How helpful is that, considering we’re now on the eve of Windows 7?

I tried this version (7.2.5) in Vista and it worked for me.

The offer ended at 5pm PST. I got it to work on Vista 64 Ultimate by installing and running it in compatibility mode.
