Finally! Palm Screen Capture App That Works
by Lynette
As you’ve seen on this blog I sometimes like to take lots of screen shots. I just love them. To me nothing can better help people understand than screen shots or videos. I have lots of stuff I’d like to show my friends or put on the blog that’s from my Palm yet, none of the screen capture apps really worked for me.
I decided to get ZGrab - a free screen capture app for Palm. It’s a little odd to use because the screen capture button is the off button. So you literally turn the unit off to take a snap shot. But hey as long as it works and I’ve tried Snap and all the rest. Only this one worked for me.
It does save in the odd .pcx format so you have to convert it before you can share or post to your blogs. Not super handy if you’re posting on the go, but what I grab the file from my Palm, open it with IrfanView - another excellent free image viewer and simply save as Jpg. Easy peasy.
The colors do look a lot brighter and not quite what I see on the PDA itself. But at this point I don’t really care much about that. All that matters is I can take a screen shot.
