I have been using Mac forever. Now at work I am starting to use PC.
Does anybody knows of a program to make screenshots, and save them on the desktop.
The way PC works now is a pain in the ars.Thanks

1. press the print button
2. open photoshop
4. ctrl+vthat's how I do it

I know, but that sucks, you need to open each image in photoshop before you do the next. Waste of time.
Some application where you can save several screenshots to the desktop?

There was a little program called "COREL CAPTURE". Part of Corel Draw.
You will get older Corel Versions very cheap on eBay. (Corel 9 for example, but i dont know if it works with WIN XP)
You may also go to zdnet.com, "DOWNLOADS" and search for "screenshot" or "screencapture". There is some Freeware / Shareware.

One of the Mac Screenshot programs (I forget what it was.. OS 9 only I think) will make multiple shots of a very deep web page and then paste all the bits together for you automatically, to make one very tall screenshot (all you had to do is Cntrl-Shift-5 and there it was, all pasted together)... very nice...
Is there a Windows program like this?

more info.. It would scroll the web page to capture all of the off-screen bits too.
It was ScreenCatcher

Would like to find this function again for Mac and Windows...

pretty much any small program you were ever looking for can be found there with simple keyword searches.

I did a search there and found a Windows app that does scrolling screenshots.. BUT... Why do so many Windows utility programs have to be so UGLY?

because programmers are not designer

so... the company making the software should hire designers

Then send in your portfolio ; )
Try a program called SnagIt. It's not the prettiest thing in the world, but it does more types of screen capture than you can shake a stick at. Or perhaps less. Who am I to gauge your stick-shaking capabilities?

Ctrl+Alt+PrintScreen should do it

there's tons of apps for PC that do all sorts of things for screenshots. and yes, most are ugly. windows programs don't benefit from an already pretty set of contols. lots of the pretty mac apps wouldn't look so pretty using default windows' controls. that's where themes come in handy.

HoverSnap is the way to go. It does exactly what you want and it's free.

any screen shot you want do this.
1. print screen
2. open photoshop
3. new photoshop document
[it will give you an exact screen size to use so you dont have to select it]
4. ctrl V will paste your screen shot in your new psd.
5. do what you will.

been thru that carty, he wants to be able to do it without having to leave the program he is doing.
like a mac will let you do multiples to the desktop
