The following programs do not require an installation. Just decompress the .zip archive in any directory of your choice. These programs (written in C#) work with the Microsoft .NET Framework version 2.0 or higher.

CaptureScreen 1.6.3432: (freeware) (395 KB)

Screen capture program, very easy to use. Right-click for contextual menu access. Move and size the window to the desired location, and select the "Capture" command for a region capture of the screen, or the "Full Screen" command for a full capture of the screen. Save the capture with the "Save" command; png format (by default) gives a perfect result. For precision, the "Image Size" menu displays or sets the real size (pixels) of the capture. The "Clear" command erases the capture and enables the commands to set the size of the capture. The "Transparent Mode" command preserves the window and the image in transparency: you can use the capture like a tracing paper. The "Thumbnail..." command allows to save a thumbnail of the capture (with a Preview command). Image effects (Lighten, Darken, GrayScale, Invert, Contrast, Color, RGB ...) and some special effects are available with the "Effects" menu . The "Effects Settings..." menu allows you to set parameters for most of the images effects.
This program requires the Microsoft .NET Framework version 2.0 or higher.

CaptureScreen 1.7.3431: (shareware) (1.19 MB)

Right-click for contextual menu access. Move and size the window to the desired location, and select the "Capture" command for a region capture of the screen, or the "Full Screen" command for a full capture of the screen. Save the capture with the "Save" command; png format (by default) gives a perfect result. The "Clear" command erases the capture.

The "Thumbnail..." command allows you to save a thumbnail (or a enlargement) of the capture (with a Preview command). Image effects (Lighten, Darken, GrayScale, Invert, Contrast, Color, RGB ...) and special effects (Selective GrayScale, Color To Transparent, Psychedelic, B/W Sketch, Color Emboss...) are available with the "Effects" menu. The "Effects Settings..." menu allows you to set parameters for most of the images effects. You can also create your own effects using a "Convolution Matrix". The "Transparent Mode" command preserves the window and the image in transparency: you can use the capture like a tracing paper. The "No Border Mode" command allows you to hide window's border; you can open by example several instances of CaptureScreen to make a photomontage. The "CaptureScreen Options" allows you to set and save user settings (hotkeys for menus commands, transparency, exposure time...).
This program requires the Microsoft .NET Framework version 2.0 or higher.

Image by image: (freeware)

Video player to view video image by image (AVI and WMV). It works good if the "Speed Play" menu (Fast, Normal, Slow) are enabled (see contextual menu). For all video files, you can set with precision the position in the video stream ("Set Position..." button). For a capture of image in a video, right-click for contextual menu access, select "Options", click on the "Performance" tab and slide the "Video Performance - Hardware Acceleration" tab down, all the way to none. Reset the video parameters after the capture.

ImageOpen: (freeware)

Image viewer (windows size = image size). Right-click for contextual menu access. Select the command "Open" to open a image file. Click on image to view next image (or commmand "Next"). Select "Previous" to view previous image. Select "Top" so that ImageOpen always stays on top of the others windows. For the very large images, select "Open with IE" to view the image in Internet Explorer. The "No Border" command allows you to hide window's border (e.g. to view icons in real size).
