If you use Yahoo Widget Machine, they have a nice little widget called "Screen Shot". It's a small tab that you can put anywhere on the edge of your screen and clicking it takes a shot. The default is jpg format.

I'm very lazy. That's why I also changed the /way/ a screenshot is taken:

Incidentally, Microsoft included something like my Apple-Shift-F13 in Windows Vista. Except my method is still a tad slicker, inasmuch as it saves and names the images automatically.

HAHA, I deciphered dtravis's username through his smudging. You're no longer safe, set your mac to guard mode while you sleep from now on, muwahahaha.
