I play a lot of online poker. I dont play stud because I dont have a photographic memory and dont like being at a disadvantage to those people who can remember all the cards. I would like to be able to see each round in succession as it is played spread across my screens. I havent found anything that can do this yet.
Screen Capture
- Thread starter gnome

I recommend anyone reading this to not bother with AnalogX. It works all right, but the only option appears to be for the captured file to write to the AnalogX folder (you can't print the capture or even choose a different folder to save into), you can't crop your captures, and if the capture page is stored over 2 print pages, you can't print just one of them. Free is well and good, but this baby is just too limited and cumbersome. Grabzilla is much better than this... but if you don't mind spending $10, 5-Clicks is much better still.
When I started this thread, just wanted to give a "heads up" on a cool screen capture utility (just in case anyone was looking for one).
I was amused by the number of responses (mostly claiming, "mine's better"), so I thought I'd explore screen capture programs a little more... and was I surprised. I'd always thought they were mostly vanilla and generic. Noooooope.
I've downloaded 6 or 7 free/shareware programs and found a wide range of features regarding:
1. Capture desktop
2. Capture window
3. Capture user defined size
4. Capture video
5. Capture sequential screen shots, auto-named
6. "Print from capture" without being saved to file first... thought they'd all have this.
7. Multiple monitor support
8. Ease of use. Some require a few steps to reach one's objective, others surprisingly many.
As for 5-Clicks.... It was rated down by some website because it does not "capture a window", nor "capture desktop", nor does it capture video/sequential screens shots.
What it does, is capture user defined area only and then is given the option to copy to clipboard, save to file, or print + supports multiple monitors. In the sense of simplicity and elegant use, it's really quite different from all the others and stands as my favorite of those tested.
(NO, I didn't try SnagIt.... on purpose. I think $40 is too much for a simple utility that should have been included in Windows in the first place... I understand it's probably worth $40 for all of its features.)
OK... I'm ready to be ragged on!
