SCIT. changes the default screencap format for your Mac

Way back before Tiger (remember those days?) the default image type for screen captures was PDF. Ick. Tiger changed it to PNG, which is nice and all, but still not what I need for PowerBlogging. By gum I need those tiny screen cap pics to whip out as JPEG's! So while there are ways to do it in the Terminal (isn't there always?), I found a handy-dandy app called SCIT, or Screen Capture Image Type from Daniele Kraehenbuehl. You don't find that many people who still claim HyperCard on their resume, but he just won my heart for SCIT's usefulness. Now I can switch up my screencaps without having to log out or reboot. The old Terminal method necessitates such a nasty diversion. Double ick. While at his site check out some of the other (free) cool tools...
