Neoshooter is a tool that allows you to easily take snapshots of your screen.
Once you install the application, it will automatically place itself in the system tray. The "Options" window has a user-friendly interface in which you can configure program settings.
So, you can set Neoshooter to always preview the last image, include the mouse cursor and the start menu, display balloons, hide the tray icon, as well as use the timer for a specific number of seconds.
Additionally, you can set the tray icon double-click action (e.g. take active window screenshot with timer, preview last screenshot), as well as set the output destination and extension (PNG, JPG or BMP).
But you can also define the filename format, add a date and time stamp, and send it to a specific application. Plus, you can set Neoshooter to automatically resize images (by specifying the width and height).
Furthermore, you can enable the option to create thumbnails (by inputting the width, height and file type) and configure settings for the PNG compression and JPEG quality (by adjusting a slider).
The program uses a low-to-moderate amount of system resources but doesn't include any kind of user documentation. During our tests, the "Take Active Window Screenshot (With Timer)" option didn't properly work (an error pops up every time, saying that it cannot copy information to clipboard).
All in all, Neoshooter doesn't necessarily bring anything new to the table. It simply speeds up the "PrintScreen" method which is already offered by Windows (instead of initializing an app to paste the screenshot, Neoshooter automatically displays the output in a given location and format). It could have incorporated additional functions, such as letting you captured a fixed screen. Nevertheless, NeoShooter is extremely easy to use and we suggest you test it for yourself.
