I been using this for almost two years now, there been updates to it and it is free.

Of course you still need to use a screen capture program to snap the picture, and I been using this since year 2000. No clue where you can get it. I found that paint was to slow for me to edit the snaps and love how I can use XnView to edit any snap in seconds.

What kind of edits are you performing that can't be done in Paint?

What's a screen capture program? Does it do more than pressing print screen and pasting it into paint? You can also hold alt and hit print screen to capture just the active screen.

I have used a program called Grabby for many years. You open it and let it run in the background and when you press Print scr it saves the screen shot as a file. You choose where it saves and how many it saves before it over writes the saves. This way you can play and make a bunch of screen shots and go into the folder later and edit them with a program.

I would guess this program does something similar but has an edit feature.

Add UO as a non-steam game to steam and it does it. I like me some apps that save some effort, but not that insignificant an amount. Not that I'm trying to belittle this topic. I think it's great. Every tool I know about the better. It's just not for me at this time.

I'm not allowed to talk about the program I use for screenshots here, but it allows me to take a screenshot as part of a macro. For example, I can set up a macro to steal last target, wait .5 secs and take a screenshot to make sure that all of my steals are documented. It also automatically takes a screenshot when I die or if someone on my screen dies. I wouldn't use anything else.

I have been using the free version of Tiny Take for a while when it comes to video and screen grabs. Easy to use one program for both things.

I use Lightshot.



When you select an area you get these options...can type, draw, save, print, copy...I've used this one for a very long time.

So many screen grab programs out there!
