			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-12188" src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/prtscr.gif" alt="prtscr" width="212" height="154" />I think I just <a href="http://feeds.gawker.com/~r/lifehacker/full/~3/4X5KbzIco_8/prtscr-brings-snipping-tool-to-all-versions-of-windows">found</a> the best screen capture software ever, or at least the best looking one. The aptly named <a href="http://www.fiastarta.com/PrtScr/">PrtScr</a> is originally intended to fill the void created by the Windows snipping tool which can only be found on tablet Vistas and some other select distributions. It has the same basic functionality, with some added extras and much better looks.</p>
<p>You can invoke the tool by pressing the print screen button (you can bind it to anywhere else), and the tool will pop up. It has a great mechanism because you can draw on your desktop before you create the &#8220;snip&#8221;, so depending on what you draw you might decide you need a bigger area. You can then use a box or a freehand tool to select the area you need and snip it.</p>
<p><span id="more-12189"></span></p>
<p>Once that is done the snipped image will sort of hover on your desktop in a very cool way, you really have to see it to appreciate it, take a look on the website above or at <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4z3BUJbGUU&amp;feature=player_embedded">youtube</a> directly. You can save it to the clipboard, edit it with Paint or your can save it to your hard drive. My only problem was that the edit option opens up Paint and apparently there is nothing you can do about this. Since you can send to clipboard it&#8217;s not that bad, you can open it up in Gimp or Photoshop by simply pasting, but since you can choose saving format, timer option and so much, to me the inclusion of this feature would have been obvious. Great looking app though, give it a go!</p>
