Screen Capture Programs

[playalistic]

anyone know any free screen capture programs? all the programs i've found are the trial versions.

Print Screen, then paste in MS Paint?

Tip : If you do ALT + Print Screen, it'll only snapshot the active window.

what he said works.

if you want a real program to do it though, try "howie's quick screen capture"... i'm pretty sure i got it freeware before i discovered the print screen trick.

also, paint shop pro has the ability to do this, if you happen to have that. i don't think photoshop will.

Paint Shop Pro from The Link will let you customize how to capture stuff. PSP is great and I'm pretty sure they offer 60 day trial.
