*Shotty* is the perfect companion for all those of you who share screenshots
online: a quick, easy-to-use image capture tool with convenient sharing
capabilities. Once installed on your system, Shotty sits unobtrusively in the
system tray. The program icon gives you access to its image capturing
functions – with a left click – and also to a context menu with
configuration options with a right click. Shotty lets you grab the whole
screen, a selected area or the currently active window, and save the captured
image to your hard drive. As an extra, Shotty supports transparency effects
in Windows 7 and Vista, which is very useful if you plan to save these images
as *.PNG* and edit them later on in Photoshop. If you only need to do some
quick editing, such as cropping, adding blurred areas or marking important
spots on the image, you can use Shotty's *built-in editor*. But the best
feature in Shotty is undoubtedly its ability to share the image online right
away, uploading it to one of the photo sharing services supported by the
program: *ImageShack.us, Twitpic.com, DirectUpload.net* and others.
Unfortunately the behavior of this feature was a bit erratic, as it didn't
seem to work properly unless you enabled the 'Show configuration before
upload' option. *With Shotty you can easily capture an image on your desktop
and share it online in just a couple of clicks.*Download *Shotty 2.0.2* in
