Snatch pixels from your screen and convert into translucent tool images in PNG, GIF, ICO and TEA image formats with ease. Create modern monochromatic tool images in seconds for your app, web app, or Gossamer app. Click capture, hover mouse cursor over screen area to acquire image, adjust color conversion settings if required, and copy/save.

- Automatic monochromatic/color conversion, variable background color removal, and smart image cropping
- Color Conversion Modes: Black (shades of black), White (shades of white), B/W (shades of black and white), 1 Color (shades of custom color), 2 Color Mix (shades of two custom colors with Color Mix adjustment), Font Color (shades of current font color), RGBA (original colors)
- Processing Options: Remove Alpha, Pre-Invert, Enhance Range, Boost Detail, Make Alpha, Def. Alpha, and Post-Invert
- Capture image from screen in realtime (2 modes): drag and release (instant), or click and hover (short delay)
- Post-capture adjustment support - click and drag within "Enlarged View" panel area to adjust final capture area and regenerate image
- Custom capture width / height: 5-256px
- Custom minimum image width / height range: 1-256px
- Custom vertical / horizontal transparent padding: 0-30px
- Tweak final vertical / horizontal image position: +/-30px
- Adjust Brightness and Contrast levels
- Twin feather modes: -200..-1: smooth image and feather edges / 1..200: feather edges only / 0: off
- Image Options: Flip, Mirror, and Rotate 0, 90, 180, and 270
- Save image to file as a PNG (32 bit), ICO (32 bit), TEA (32 bit), or GIF (8 bit)
