Crop and capture screen software/plugin for Windows 7 [closed]

Solution 1:

Have you tried ZScreen? It is highly configurable. I like the ability to have the capture image automatically appear in a lightweight editor before saving/copying. You can crop, etc. in this editor.

It uses the same editor as Greenshot, which is another alternative to purchasing SnagIt.

Solution 2:

I did something crazy the other day. I bought software! Tech Smith has a new version of Snagit that is outstanding. Their revisions and improvements are fantastic (like auto saving to a library, all in one capture, video capture, etc). It runs in the background, does not consume much memory and I assigned a keyboard shortcut (Ctrl, shift + A), so at any time with my left hand I can capture anything in an instant.

Solution 3:

How about just opening Paint to paste your screen shot and crop it?

Also, if you have Office OneNote it has a lightweight companion utility that can do exactly what you want.
