Screengrab Firefox Addon Rocks!

Whenever I create presentations I usually need to take screenshots from webpages. In most cases this is just a case of pressing Print Screen, however when you want to take a screenshot of the whole page (below the fold) this can get very tricky. Screengrab add-on for Firefox is a must have and it’s free! There are other programs like snagit that do the same thing, but they cost money.
It will capture what you can see in the window, the entire page, just a selection, a particular frame… basically it saves webpages as images – either to a file, or to the clipboard.
The image below is from a Screengrab by selection only. I only needed to capture a portion of the screen.

To use Screengrab, just right-click a page to bring up the context menu and look at the options under “Screengrab”. It’s pretty self-explanatory!

Oooh, that’s nice. I always have to piece the different print screens together though Gimp when doing a website screen shot. This will be much easier. Thanks!
