Nimbus Screenshot - another great screenshot tool for Chrome

Image
Yesterday I wrote about Awesome Screenshot , a free screenshot tool for Chrome. One of my connections on LinkedIn also suggested Nimbus Screenshot. Nimbus Screenshot is another free screenshot tool for Chrome (browser and Chromebooks) that has some great features. It is also available for Firefox , Android and PC . I'm using the Chrome version now and will be trying out the Android version later. It's easy to use and intuitive. One nice feature about Nimbus is that it lets you save your screenshot, with annotations and edits, directly to Google Drive, which is especially great for Chromebook users. Other features include: ability to capture whole web page, part of it or the whole browser window, edit screenshots, create your own drawing from scratch, paste patterns and textboxes to screenshot, resize and crop, add arrows and stickers and save as JPG, PNG and BMP formats.

Awesome Screenshot - screen shot app for Chrome (replacing webpage screenshot)

Image
  I was using Webpage Screenshot to do all of my screen shots for this blog and other projects and then I noticed it missing from my tool bar the other day. I went into Extensions and found that it was disabled by Google for violating the Chrome Webstore Policy. Then I saw this article that explained that the app collects an enormous amount of personal data and violates Google's policies. So, I looked for something else and found: Awesome Screenshot is a great, free web app that takes screenshots in Chrome (OS and browser). You can capture a selection, the visible part of a page or the whole page. You can store images on their site or download them to your own device. It supports PNG formats and even supports horizontal scrolling on the page when capturing. You can also annotate and edit images. It's very easy to use and works great and is great for anyone needing to take screen shots. Related: Web-Based Image Editing Resources Image Editing Resources -
