DB - ScreenShot

DB - ScreenShot is a lightweight software application whose purpose is to help you take screenshots of your desktop while having the possibility to include or exclude the mouse cursor and place custom text messages on the images. It can be deployed on all Windows versions out there.

Portable running mode

The tool is portable and can be stored on pen drives or other portable devices so you can carry it with you all the time. Plus, you may gain access to its GUI with a simple double-click on the executable file because you do not have to go through an installation process.What’s more, you can get rid of it with a quick deletion task of the files that you have downloaded from the Internet because it does leave entries in your Windows registry and create additional configuration files.

Look for the app in the system tray

You can find DB - ScreenShot running quietly in the system tray. You may show or hide the configuration panel by clicking on its tray icon. You cannot read more about the configuration process in a help manual so you need to experiment a little bit with the dedicated parameters in order to understand how the tool works.

Capture different areas of your screen

The application offers you the possibility to capture the whole screen, active window, or active panel without its borders. Plus, you are allowed to export the snapshots to BMP, JPG, or PNG file format, as well as set the JPG quality.Other important configuration settings worth being mentioned enable you to remove the taskbar from the screenshots, hide or show the mouse cursor in your screenshots, show the mouse cursor represented by the cursor icon or a colored dot (you may pick a user-defined color), include date and time stamps to a specified position on the snapshot, as well as embed custom text messages to a preferred image position.

Final remarks

To sum things up, DB - ScreenShot gathers several handy features under its hood for helping you take screenshots, and can be tweaked by less experienced users and professionals alike.
