I just don’t like Paint, I know what it is – although at this point it’s been years since I’ve used it for anything besides pasting ‘windows snipping tool’ screenshots onto it, so I probably don’t remember how to use the editing tools anymore. As far as I know, the old crappy spy version won’t work on Chrome anymore, so even if people fail to remove it manually – it won’t work. I removed the extension from my browser as soon as I read this article & noticed there was no ‘about’ connected to the ext because it no longer existed in ChromeStore. Awesome screenshot allows you to save your files online using your google+drive or their own new website created to store and edit files that you can share with other people connected through Awesome screenshot.Īnd by the way everybody !!

All snip does is a flat crop / save (when it works).

Most of the shots I want are articles or stories I want to save, and like or need to make small notations to remember specific points of reference. In addition, I sometimes take screenshots of entire webpages that are very long and I want the entire page all on one sheet – Windows Snip will only take a shot of what is visible or less. Microsoft is aware of the problem with snipping tool and provides as ‘repair’ program that worked at first, but then snip just stopped working very soon and the repair tool wouldn’t fix it. The only option was to save to clipboard and PASTE it into the PAINT program, which usually resulted in problems with the image being the size of a postage stamp and also takes too long and why should I do it.

HOWEVER, on at least 3 or 4 of the computers in this household Windows Snipping Tool stopped working – it would take the snip but you couldn’t download it. #2 I have used ‘snipping tool’ and it’s still on my task menu because it does take an easy great simple shot and even of the DESKTOP and, of course, browser extensions don’t always do that. Why would I want to save a screenshot, open the image and then use PAINT to edit? HAHA If I do that I sure wouldn’t use ‘paint’ it’s HORRIBLE and only good for viewing bit images that won’t open in other image viewers. #1 it’s separate from the browser and there are no editing tools. Well for someone like me, the windows snipping tool is insufficient.
