How to grab an image of your entire screen in Firefox

January 8th, 2008 · Comments

I’ve been pulling my hair out trying to remember how to do an entire browser screen grab in Mac OS/X. I needed a shot of the whole screen, even beneath the scrollbar. I threw the question out to my good friends on Twitter, but most of the answers were ones I already knew. However, I really do appreciate everyone’s support on this. Thanks guys.

Cmd-Shift-3 : will take a full screen shot and save the image to your desktop.

Cmd-Shift-4 : will give you a pointer, you can then hold the mouse down and select the portion of the screen you wish to capture.

I already knew about these cool features. There is also a feature built into OS/X called Grab. It’s pretty nifty, but I don’t see it really helping me achieve what I’m trying to do. More on Grab here.

Then digitalblender sent me a message about a Firefox plug-in to use to capture the “entire” screen. It’s exactly what I was looking for, it’s called Screengrab. Thanks man.

Happy grabbing screens.
