IOJ – The Web’s Best Screenshot Service
A picture speaks a thousand words. Well a screenshot speaks ten thousand. Sometimes the only way to get across what you mean is to send someone a screenshot of the problem. Or maybe you want to capture a cool shot of a video game or you are making a step-by-step tutorial on how to do something on a computer. IOJ is without a doubt the web’s best screenshot service.
You go to their website (IOJ.com) and download the software. They have a Windows version and a Mac version which is nice considering the amount of Mac users is growing rapidly.
Having installed the software correctly all you have to do is press the ‘Print Screen’ key on your keyboard and a little window will pop up with some options. You can either take a ‘Full Screenshot’ or a ‘Region Screenshot’. If you select region screenshot the screen will go grey and you can select the area you want to shoot using the mouse.
You can also capture a video of what your doing on you computer by clicking ‘Capture Video’ after pressing the ‘Print Screen’ button. Both the screenshots and the videos are in very high quality.
Once you have taken the screenshot or video you will be given a link to the file in the IOJ server where you can download the image, as seen below. Simple.
This is a great tool – one which I use for all the screenshots in my articles here at Crenk.com. Its worth you while having even if you just use it the occasional time.
