SnagIt's new Web Capture tool really stands out. Integrating capture tools with a thumbnail viewer and editing program make SnagIt perfect for those who don't want to buy an image editor on top of their screen-capture program. You can also annotate a photo by selecting it and opening SnagIt Studio (File > SnagIt Studio), dragging pointers to the file, and exporting it. SnagIt processed all 41 images in about three seconds, too (on a Windows 2000 machine with a 750MHz processor). The feature is impressive we selected 41 GIF, JPEG, and PNG files, set them to a higher resolution and a different color depth, and converted them to TIFFs all in one step. The Catalog Browser is a handy thumbnail viewer where you can batch-process files-that is, apply one or many changes to a whole set of images. So you can snag any image and even make it look better while you're at it. Image Capture, for instance, lets you convert colors and resolution and add color effects such as brightness, contrast, and more. SnagIt also offers a handful of filters that let you do all sorts of tweaking automatically (during the capture).
