Thumbs up Fireshot - Great Screen Grab Tool

Hi Everyone,
I came across this a few days ago and its really helpful for taking screen grabs and adding annotations.

Previously I used photoshop, but I find it takes forever to make it look neat and loading up PS can be a pain on the fly.

Its a plugin for Firefox.
FireShot Pro - Best screenshots of web pages in Firefox!

While on the topic of screen grabs, does anyone know of a good (non-expensive: read camtasia) screen cast software?

Yeah, forbairt sent me a link to that a few months ago. It's great and very handy. I use it for taking screenshots for my inspiration site.

Yep, I find it invaluable. I also have Screengrab - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1146 as a plugin. I think I'm suffering from Firefox obsessive compulsive plugin disorder. I love them because they can be real timesavers, but I think things are getting out of hand - practically the whole bottom of my browser is filled with plugins.

Is there help available?
