I'm using SnagIt for screenshots, which I love, but the Web sites I document
use light-colored objects, such as baby-blue buttons, and my graphics always
appear way too light in the guides. I've tried experimenting with SnagIt's
contrast features, but I don't think I'm doing it right. Does anyone have
any ideas on how to darken page objects without darkening the whole image?
Thanks.
Karen
