I found a new little tool which is worth passing along. It is called 5Clicks by Interapple and it is a freeware utility that allows you to capture a portion of your screen and save it off in a variety of formats. The reason that I find this useful is that I use multiple monitors (something I have become addicted to and can't work without). When I do the standard Windows screen capture it gives me all 2,560 pixels in width, which is exactly the dimensions that I never need. This little tool will save me having to edit things down in PhotoShop or Paint when I need to snap a graphic (like the one to the right).

Jennifer,
I'm using Skitch on Mac, but have also played around with Jing, which works on Mac and Windows. It allows you to add notes, arrows, etc to the image as well, which comes in handy when you're trying to explain something visually.
It's free too!
