InBless PandaShop 2.5 is an easy to use, professional screen capture
utility for Windows 95/98.  It can capture full screen, rectangular
region of screen, or active window screen.  It has a time-delayed
feature that waits a number of seconds before capturing, and a number
on the taskbar that shows you the remaining time.  This is useful to
capture menus and splash screens.  You can also press Print Screen or
click on the system tray to capture screens.  As the screen is
captured, you can paste it to your picture, a new picture or the
clipboard.  The picture can then be saved to disk, made a hard copy,
or edited with some built-in drawing tools, such as flip and rotate,
resize and stretch, crop, ellipse, airbrush and more.
