- I haven't seen Exposure Pro or Capture, but I am familiar with Screen Shot and
- Image Grabber (Sebastian Software). I have no idea how, but Screen Shot
- claims a 5 mouse rating from MacUser ("March '91" - on their package, I
- haven't seen the article). I think it is junk.
-
- I use Image Grabber, which allows a number of options, including timed
- capture, capture of a window, entire screen, coordinate capture, output to
- scrapbook, clipboard, PICT file, MacPaint file, Printer, resource, color, B/W,
- scaling, good help, good documentation... Quality software. This should be
- considered a 5 mouse product (I don't think it is). I got mine from
- MacWarehouse. $35 or so...
