CNET Editors' review
Taking screenshots is something many people need to or want to do occasionally, but doing so often results in cluttered desktops and sometimes requires additional image editing or resizing. By solving these annoyances, SnapNDrag for Mac makes taking screenshots easier and more efficient.
SnapNDrag for Mac is a small screenshot utility that provides users with a few screenshot enhancement options. For instance, it might not be obvious to most users that you can change the default folder where you want your images to appear. This can result in much clutter on your desktop even after taking a few screenshots. SnapNDrag solves the problem by providing a little library-like window for you where it places all your screenshots so you can find them all in one place. The reason that someone may want to do that wasn't instantly obvious, but it was easy to use should you want to. Being able to drag and drop the screenshots to your email is a nice feature, though. In addition, you can take a screenshot of a window by simply clicking on it, as opposed to having to manually draw a frame around it. Use of this function resulted in perfectly contoured screenshots of your window, which makes adding frames a thing of the past. Unfortunately the option to resize your screenshots is only available once you pay for an upgrade, but the free version of the program works fine as it is and is quite handy. It felt both light and efficient.
Perfect for creative users, SNapNDrag for Mac will directly take contoured screenshots of one window or let you set a timer for your shots. In addition, it will keep everything tidy and in one place for you out of the box.
Publisher's Description
From Yellow Mug Software:
SnapNDrag is a simple application that makes screen capture extremely easy. Just click a button to capture and then drag the result off to another application or to the Finder. For example, to e-mail your captured screen, simply drag the result off and drop it on your e-mail application. No file dialog boxes to navigate and no temporary files to delete. It is that simple. There is really no reason not to download a copy today.
What's new in this version:
- Added Batch Rename function to easily rename multiple screenshots.
- Fixed an issue where the "Hide extension" option was not correctly handled.

-
"This version Does not work with OSX 10.5.8 ."
Version: SnapNDrag 2.6.6
Pros
Simple to use, very quick and with the JPEG format it fits most situations. Excellent product.
Cons
This version does not work with OSX 10.5.8 Use Snap N Drag 10.5.7 for the older Mac systems.
Summary
BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU DOWNLOAD TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE CORRECT ONE FOR THE OPERATING SYSTEM THAT YOU HAVE.
With the correct download this will save you many hours of messing around and it is really simple to use. Open the program, choose the mode, highlight if needed and then click and drop to where you want the data/picture etc. Yep that simple. -
"Yup Seams to work ok, only used it a couple of times."

Cons
None ..........
Summary
As in summary, yes it works ok.

"Will replace the extra clicks needed when I use Grab"
Version: SnapNDrag 2.6.5
Pros
Use is intuitive. Works for my daily needs to create graphics into my emails.
Cons
User interface contains too much information. Should be able to create and save a default set of choices, but, what the heck, it works!
-
"Better than Grab"
Version: SnapNDrag 2.6.1
Pros
Better user interface than Grab that comes with my Mac.
Cons
None really, but I could still not capture a frame from a DVD, but this because of Apple, not this program.
Summary
The tools to capture a selection, window or the entire screen just work better than Grab that came with my computer. The SnapNDrag shortcut now lives at the bottom of my screen with my other shortcuts.
-
"Great Program and getting better with each new version."
Version: SnapNDrag 2.6.1
Pros
Simple to use. Able to name and number files automatically.
Cons
None. Just a great program.
Summary
I use this program almost every day. It' just great and getting better all the time. I never have had any problems with it. Thanks people for a great program.

"Keep it Simple.......!!"
Version: SnapNDrag 2.5.8
Pros
Used it for years - Always reliable - simple to use - no need to remember key strokes or combo clicks - free!! Am a "soft" user, great for my needs!!
Cons
I cannot find any defects - it has ALWAYS worked for me!
Summary
For the non-professional, this is the kind of Mac app I like best - simple in design, easy to use, no crashes - similar to Macaroni & Growl - they just sit around quietly bothering no-body, but ready for action on a moment's notice!!
-
"Good but limited functionality"
Version: SnapNDrag 2.5.8
Pros
Handy, free
Cons
Sometimes fails to capture a selection when doing several "snaps" in a row. Always works the first time opened (version 2.5.7 with OS 10.6.4) but then seems to be an issue with subsequent actions. Closing and re-opening the app solves the problem.
Summary
Because of the "Con" above, I highly recommend the free and much more capable Skitch.
