From within the Skitch application, by pressing the button "Screen Snap" at the top of the application.In Skitch, there are three ways to grab screenshots: This tutorial will focus on using Skitch as a standalone application, just in case you aren't using Evernote. Screenshots will fill your notebooks much more quickly than just notes. Personally, I choose to not integrate Skitch with Evernote so that I don't run out of storage in my Evernote notebooks. You can sign in with your Evernote account and have your screenshots automatically posted to an Evernote notebook, or you can choose "Do This Later" to use Skitch in standalone mode. When starting up Skitch, you can login with your Evernote account to keep all of your screenshots in an Evernote notebook, or press "Do This Later" to skip this step. After downloading Skitch and moving the app to your Applications folder, if applicable, start up the program and you'll be greeted with a sign in window.
Skitch, which is owned by Evernote, can be downloaded for free from Evernote's Skitch website, or via the Mac App Store. In this tutorial, I'll show you how to use Skitch to take, crop, resize and annotate screenshots taken on your Mac - and much more besides. Skitch maintains a lightweight and easy to use feel that has made it a must-use, for me, on the Mac. Skitch is the perfect tool when you need something more robust and easier to use. Whilst Mac OS X includes some built-in screenshot functionality, it can be tricky to remember all those keyboard shortcuts and exactly what each one does.
