Oh...Boy...Lot of flames...

I am not like others, whenever I give the low rating I give my opinion along with it explaining why I gave that way. But your response shows how immature you are.

FYI, eventhough you provided very less documentation, but still I downloaded the application and ran it.

I tried to capture the Desktop or the region, sure it worked but there is no way to save the image. Am I missing something? If I can't even save the image then what's use of this Tool?

Even when I tried to open your SnaperTest.dsw it's still for looking SnaperHelper.dsp (belongs to the SmartHelper.dll)

When I compiled the VC application I got this error:

C:\TestCode\ScreenSnaperDemo\SnaperTestCV\SnaperTestView.cpp(7) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'SnaperHelper/SnaperHelperLib.h': No such file or directory

After I tried you tool only I gave my rating.

The likelihood of a program crashing is in direct proportion to the number of pointers used in it.
