Edit: Yes, I know, it makes 2 formats at once when you save, no big deal but I will fix on next release. What this does is take a screenshot of your screen and paste it into the program. After doing that, you can save it to a directory of your choice. You can also choose any format you want, but there is a small bug in the format choosing options I gotta fix. Ill fix it tommorow 2:20 am here.
This is version 1. I will be making many changes to this program. I will soon include an uploader to tinypic.com, etc, so you can do everything in one simple, shot.
I've always hated prt-scrn than pasting into paint and saving. So I made this basically for myself. Will make an installer when I think it is necessary so It can run in the background when I turn my computer on.
Enjoy

Please update your first post containing info with what this is. Users that do not visit the General Programming section don't know what you just released this based on your screenshot thread. Along with that, attaching your own virus scan results is pointless, as you can scew the results by uploading a different file. A moderator will post results for files.

Suggestions:
- Auto-saving, using an incremented naming system or using the date and time as the image name ex. (img020308-041232.png meaning 02/03/2008 - 04:12:32)
- Hotkey, have the program sit in the tray bar and simply allow the user to hit a key combination to take a screenshot have it save automatically to a location.
Configuration for things like this should show up automatically on the first run of the program, afterward, the user should be able to reconfigure afterward. An easy method of doing this is either using the registry or creating an ini file for the program. You can detect if the file exists, or if the registry key exists to determine if the program is running for the first time.
From there, if you are using the registry, you can create the key(s) when the options are saved and have it load at runtime skipping the options each time there-after as long as the key is found. If you are using an ini file, you can simply determine if the file is valid in the same folder as the exe.
Things that should be configurable:
- Default Destination to save images to.
- Allowing auto-saving instead of just storing and waiting for the user to save the file themselves.
- Hotkey customization.
- File name for auto-saving, using a user-defined prefix.
Just some suggestions. Take a look at other screenshot apps and get some ideas on things you can add or make better.

Make the hotkey's default print screen.

Yeah thats what I was thinking.
Thanks for the tips Wiccan
Although, I have no idea how to work the registry, if you have a nice guide for .Net registry codes, can you link it please? Thanks again.

Yup, I also found a couple great sites.
Registry is working fine now. Next step is HotKeys/System tray.
