This version of the program is especially optimized for Windows Vista and 7, which means that it has no problem with rounded window edges or transparent borders. WinSnap has plenty of configuration options: you can toggle whether or not to include the mouse, delay the shot (useful for when you want to capture open menus, etc.) and even fine-tune any of the WinSnap effects, contours, watermarks and shadow included.
