Screenshot Helper 1.1

Screenshot Helper shows a full screen window with a solid color or a desktop picture. The easiest way to get a clean desktop for screenshots on Mac OS X is to create a brand-new user account and log in as a brand-new user. But if you need to use your own user account for whatever reason and you have a messy desktop like mine, you can use this application to hide the actual desktop in order to take clean screenshots.

Use the Preferences panel to change the color or the desktop picture. Shift - drag the window to snap to the edge of screen. Press the space key to show/hide the menu bar and the dock. You can also make the entire screen solid black, white, red, green, or blue to check dead or stuck pixels on your LCD screen, or for a blue or green screen chroma key.
