CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff on November 07, 2008
Excellent screen capture apps aren't hard to come by, but excellent free ones are. With sophisticated features at no cost, it's hard to reach higher than Gadwin PrintScreen. An attractive, easily navigated interface opens up a customization wonderland for users to decide default settings for shortcut key associations, capture preferences, and output.
For our purposes, the clicking and dragging regions is the clear choice. Misjudge your region's dimensions and Gadwin PrintScreen lets you readjust them without having to start over, something many commercial competitors don't do. Setting the app to automatically open each screen capture in your favorite viewer or editor makes up for the program's lack of built-in image editor, still achieving a seamless screen capture experience from start to finish that grabs and delivers shots just where you want them.
Publisher's description
From Gadwin Systems :Gadwin PrintScreen allows much more flexibility with that Print Screen button at the top of your keyboard. Usually when you hit the Print Screen button it loads the current screen into your clipboard. To save the image you have to open up an image-editing application, paste it, then save the file. Gadwin's free PrintScreen streamlines this whole process. It sits in your System Tray, and you can set a number of options. When you hit print screen (or whichever button you specify), you can choose to save the screen directly to a specific folder. You can also choose to save just a window, or a specific area of the screen. The application also gives you the option of sending the screen capture directly to your printer or as an email, and it will even automatically resize the picture to specified dimensions. You can select the type of image you want to save.

Version: Gadwin PrintScreen 4.2
Pros: Very easy to use - I like choosing where my images are saved and what hotkey is more convenient. It doesn't take up a lot o disk space and is always at the ready, lying in my system tray.

Version: Gadwin PrintScreen 4.2
Pros: i love everything, i have been searching for a freeware screen capping program that not only caps full-screen but also certain areas and this program is just perfect for both.
Every other free programs i found could do this as well but i wanted something that wouldn't make me shudder and scream from its ugliness, this program has high-quality interface design and is so easy to understand. I learned it in less than 5mins after customizing what i wanted it to do. there are so many options, and trust me if you can read and and know how to click your mouse you'll get this program ASAP its that simple.
Download it, you have nothing to loose. I can't believe its free!
Cons: its perfect, i keep finding new features that i love about it.
