If you want Snagit to function as a vanilla image editor and don't
want it to do anything that an image editor doesn't do, then you are

However, Snagit does so much more than what an image editor can do.
So, if an image editor falls short of what you need to do, Snagit may
do it.
I also never heard of StarDock
