Some people want a minimum wait time as well (some pages use Javascript to add content after the page is done loading). These are all good suggestions; thanks.

In a scripted environnement (like the one I use page saver), fetching all of the flash video ads to make the screenshot is not always a positive functionnality. 2) Allow to specify a "onlyVisibleArea". Whan a page is, for exemple, 2000 pixels in height, it's not alway something useful to have the full height of the page in the screenshot. And that leads me for my last comment: 3) please, allow us to save a mandatory image size, cropping the screeshot rather than resizing it... I dont want a 800x2000 px image resized to {peanuts}x600 pixels. I know that it's not that simple. I've tried for some times to do it in a reliable way using standard *nix tools, but that would be the ultimate functionnality I'd need, and I'd be ready to pay even more than 15$ for it.
