Gives a clean background for screenshots.

In depth

A closer look at Screenshot Helper 0.3

Screenshot Helper is freeware. It shows a full screen window with a solid color or a desktop picture.

The easiest way to get a clean desktop for screenshots on Mac OS X is to create a brand-new user account and log in as a brand-new user. But if you need to use your own user account for whatever reason and you have a messy desktop like mine, you can use this application to hide the actual desktop in order to take clean screenshots.

Choose a color or a desktop picture in the Preferences panel. Shift - drag the window to snap to the edge of screen. Press the space bar to show/hide the menu bar and the dock.
