WebShot is a practical and efficient URL screenshot batch capturing software specially designed for webmasters or software developers. With it, you are able to automatically and quickly capture the content of one or multiple pages as a full-scale screenshot or a size-specific thumbnail with one click.
In addition to capturing the complete or partial content of a web page, WebShot also supports batch jobs, allows to customize the resolution, size, format of screenshots (the output image format can be JPG, GIF, PNG, or BMP), and to set the width, height of browser and image, image quality, process time-out, etc.
For webmasters or software developers, WebShot also provides command line support and a DLL file that allows developer to embed WebShot's screenshot generation technique in your own applications.
