Rumshot 0.8 Beta

I present to you RumShot 0.8.

PLEASE review the Rumshot Guide if you are new to the application or it's themes. (TheCerealMouse, if you read this, please get ahold of me on MSN)

A few things to note...

  • This build fixes the issue switching between themes after using an alphamask theme.
  • RumShot themes are just zip files - to see how to make your own, change the extension on the theme files to .zip, extract and have fun. The xml is really very straight forward.
  • Alpha/White masking has been worked on and hopefully will work for everyone. I've only tested on my work and home machines but it's much quicker now. - take a look at Ozzpot's Panorama theme for an example.
  • To report bugs please copy the exception text or error message (if any) and paste it using http://rafb.net/paste !!
  • Feel free to throw out a bunch of suggestions, but please keep in mind that the interface isn't likely to change much, if at all.

Rumshot REQUIRES the .NET 2.0 Framework. Go here if you dont have it already. No, you can not use a beta version of 2.0 with this.

PLEASE DO NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT RESOURCE USAGE. I'LL JUST END UP IGNORING YOUR POST

This beta expires on September 1st, 2006.

And as always...

READ THE README OR LOSE ALL OF YOUR HAIR.

Preview of the app (cause someone asked for one)

Lastly - If you have a theme/border that you created (or permission to port someone else's - you need proof, btw) for another app and would like me to port it for you, please private message me and I will be happy to help.

woot new fix :)

*EDIT* im afraid the bug i pointed out still exists....

rumshotfx1.jpg

after taking a screenshot you can change between themes just fine, but if you do the pop-out window and move it around after you have taken your screenshot, changing themes thereafter does not update the screenshot to fit in the border unless you do the pop-out window again to reposition it.

step-by-step to break rumshot:

1. select a theme

2. press 'take screenshot'

3. change themes happily

-- but i want a diff part of my screen! --

4. do pop-out preview

5. move around until you see fit

6. press upper right button to confirm

7. change theme and be sad cause it doesnt work

Man good catch. I'll have a look at what's causing it. You dont *have* to use the popout to select an area though. It will update the preview slice even when moving the main window.
