I believe http://www.picnik.com lets you choose visible page or full page when taking screenshots. It's a great tool overall.

Fred -- Looks like you already decided, but I just wanted to throw in another vote for Snagit. Cheap, easy to use, lots of versatility. Love it. Couldn't work without it.

I think the best tool for what you are looking to do is SnagIt (http://www.techsmith.com/sc.... It is the best $40 I have spent in a long time, especially if you make a lot of PPT. I honestly don't know how I made presentations before I had the program.

On a side note, all the great information I get from you- all you get from me is a screen shot program reco. Ha, gotta love the internet.

Thanks for the great blog Fred-

Is the screen which you are trying to capture a website or from an application on your machine?

If it is a publicly available URL, then I have a thumbnail capturing service which I could turn back on for you to use - if it is a local application, then I'm not sure what application will work.

I once took a screencap of one of Robert Scoble's blog posts - If I remember correctly, it ended up being an image that was 800 wide by 6200 tall.

Send me an email, or DM me on twitter (Mobasoft) and let me know.

Try Paparazzi. The only problem is that it can't make a screenshot of a page you need to be logged into.

sorry, got confused with the Mozilla add-on.
the correct address is the one pointed by Paul below:

ScreenGrab!

I'd also add the free Firefox extension Screengrab (http://www.screengrab.org) to the list. It works great, and lets you select the visible window, entire page, or a selection. I've been using it for all my screenshots for a long time now with no complaints.

Fred

"below the fold" implies web page to me - if so, there are a few items that can do this for you.
https://addons.mozilla.org/... is a Firefox add in
http://www.derailer.org/pap... is a freeware app

Hope that helps

Doesn't Paparazzi do this, at least for Web pages?

If you just want to capture a web page, use Papparazzi. It will make a potentially very tall image: http://www.derailer.org/pap...

For Firefox I use the Perl Crescent Page Saver extension, basic version is free and does exactly what it says on the tin.

SnagIt from Techsmith does support scrolling down, and very good tool overall., but it's windows only.

The Wesabe Firefox extension does this. "Browser Snapshot" takes a JPG or PNG or the full browser page. You can then upload it to Wesabe (which lets you save receipts and confirmation pages, and link them to your transactions), or save it to your hard drive.

Give it a shot. :)

You can also go under file.

Go to "print"

In the print dialog select the .pdf submenu

Do a "save as .pdf" from there.

You'll have a .pdf of the entire window.

Faast and you don't need to open another application to do it.

Hey Fred, I've been using Paparazzi (http://www.derailer.org/pap... for OS X lately. it handily gives you a preview, lets you set a time delay to let widgets load, as well as set various capture and crop sizes.

Dead useful, if you're using a Mac.

If you are looking to capture web pages, there's a good Firefox extension from Picnik that will auto capture long web pages.
