Totally depends on what type of images we're talking about. Possible ways of doing it: Text in some corner saying "Screenshot" or "Screencapture" Camera icon some corner or Text and image of camera icon. In case of say that answer box, the safest way may be to overlay it with another color and reveal the image on hover. Because #3 might not be all that ...

If you don't want your screen shot to be blurry, open the screen shot in PhotoShop, then go to image size, increase the size x2 in each dimension, and then choose 'nearest neighbor' as the interpolation option. The end result will be an image 4 times larger but the pixels will remain aliased and you won't get the blurring.

Screenshots on Retina Macs are exactly what you may expect: They're double the resolution and pixel density of non-Retina Macs. For a Retina MacBook Pro, full screen grabs are 2880×1800, with the pixel dimensions of elements double the size. When overlaid with a screenshot of a non-Retina Mac, so that they're both the same physical size, the elements on the ...

Depending on the context, you could do a lot worse than mock up a stylized "monitor" frame (perhaps in Apple grey?). Photoshop's Image Processor script lets you run an Action when batch processing images, so you could create an action that resizes the canvas, drops in the "monitor" above the screen shot, adds a standard background (for screen grabs that ...

LittleSnapper LittleSnapper is awesome. I'm 90% sure it works with Retina display Macs, but I don't have any way to confirm. http://www.realmacsoftware.com/littlesnapper/ Paparazzi Paparazzi is pretty old, but free. So you could give that a shot first. I don't know how well it'll handle Retina screenshots though. http://derailer.org/paparazzi/ ...

I use a combination of Evernote and Dropbox or Google Drive. Evernote works to keep notes and visual reference together in a shareable 'notebook'. It also has a rather good ability to search the text in your images. This comes in handy when I take notes directly on my sketches (which I capture with my camera phone directly into Evernote). Dropbox / Drive ...

I can confirm that LittleSnapper works on rMBP. However, the screenshots are double resolution. I'm not sure what you mean by "reproducible size" but if you send the screenshots to someone one a standard display, they will say "these are way too big". I'm still trying to find out a good way to take low resolution screenshots for sharing with people who ...

You're probably just seeing a lower resolution preview in whatever you're using to create the document. That's normal — applications like InDesign often show a lower resolution preview on screen, but print at full quality. Should I make an A4 size 600 DPI image in photoshop and gimp and then add screenshots to them and then optimize them? No. That's ...

First, you need to make sure you're resizing the image using a resizing algorithm such as cubic interpolation. This is usually the default on Photoshop and the like. If it doesn't look quite as sharp as you want, you'll need to apply a slight sharpening filter to it. As for the "shine", that is a transparent white gradient fading to nothing, and being ...

I think you're either talking about "anti-aliasing", or you're simply talking about a resolution issue. Print is usually standard at 300 pixels per inch, and web standard is at 72 pixels. I'm not sure what you mean by your "product", if this is a screenshot of some software or if you're taking photographs and trying to put it into a printable page. Most ...
