February 17, 2003 - v1.2

• Cropping and imaging effects can be applied to shrunken images.
• Allows overlay of any system cursor on the captured image instead of only the capture cursor or the arrow cursor.

October 23, 2002 - v1.1

• Significantly improved support for Windows 98,  Me, NT and XP.
• Cropped images retain the shape of the original image instead of the shape of the cropping area, so shadow effects work correctly after cropping.

• Added ability to capture multiple windows or menus in a single capture operation.
