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 or a portion of it and now also the option to make timed screenshots or to make delayed captures over time.

- 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! is capable to save images in Tiff, Jpg and Png format and to the clipoard so you can import the image directly in other applications.

- What preferences can I change in InstantShot! ?
InstantShot! is highly customizable: you can choose the path to save the captures to and the distinguishing prefix for the saved images.
There's more! You can also choose: the compression level for the Jpg format; if InstantShot! should play a sound whenever it makes a capture; if the mouse pointer should be included in the screenshots; the delay for a single timed capture or multiple captures; if InstantShot! should automatically start after login; if it should immediately start shooting multiple captures.

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

- In what languages is InstantShot! available?
The software is currently available in English, Italian and Traditional Chinese.

- Universal Binary
