TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
We use Paint Shop Pro here. The screen snaps look good in print and in PDF.
It has a gentle learning curve; left to my own devices when I started this
job, I taught myself enough to make passable screen captures in about ten
minutes. You can also do some touching up of images in Paint Shop itself
without detouring into PhotoShop.
You can find out more about it at www.jasc.com.
