Hello
A colleague of mine is searching for a good screen capture application equivalent to FastStone Capture on Windows.

Do you have any advice (he is a switcher and needs to be encouraged )

Thank you !!

There's an app that just came out that received almost a perfect rating from Mac Addict. I can't remember its name right now though. There's also Snapz Pro.

just to mention it in case keyboard commands aren't known, but you can use the screen shot tools built right into os x:

whole screen shot: cmd-shift-3
selective screen shot: cmd-shift-4 (selective screen shot puts up a reticle so you can select exactly what part of the screen you want to capture)

If you hit the space bar after cmd-shift-4, it will screenshot an entire window, regardless of how much of it is actually visible.
