When you launch Skitch for the first time, you’re presented with a small video window that says, “Heya, learn Skitch in 3 minutes flat.” Who wouldn’t want to master a new tool in three minutes? And not have to read a manual or page through the help documentation. It’s the way the user is introduced to it. This is what the app looks like with my screenshot in it: When you’re ready to share your image with the world, save it to your computer, drag it into an e-mail, or post it onto Skitch’s website - where you can copy a direct URL or code to embed it in your blog, like this. It might be the most fluid annotation software I’ve ever seen.

It’s ridiculously easy and lightweight, yet incredibly robust (in terms of quality of functionality, not necessarily breadth of functionality - it’s no Photoshop). Skitch opens up a small app that shows the screenshot and allows you to manipulate it in a variety of ways: resize, rotate, annotate, etc. Hit Command+Shift+5 to do a crosshair snapshot and select the area you want to capture. See this photo here? It’s a screenshot of my blog taken with Skitch. And the crispness in that message is reflected in the app itself. On their website they describe themselves as “fast and fun image sharing.” I love any company that knows how to explain their product in five words. And I should be able to keep using Clearly, at least until the next time something goes wrong with Windows 10 and I have to reinstall everything.I just downloaded a copy of the Skitch beta and wow, I’m already impressed.

And increasing the font size in my browser’s settings only works for some pages others, such as Ars Technica, seem to hard-code their font sizes into their CSS. I can of course zoom the pages with Ctrl-+ or Ctrl-scrollwheel, but that isn’t always satisfactory. In fact, that was the main thing I used Clearly for. Web Clipper doesn’t let me adjust the font size the way Clearly does, and my eyes are getting to the point where bigger fonts are definitely better. Evernote explains that it incorporated Skitch’s core functionality into its Evernote app, a third-party Pebble app called Powernoter effectively does replaces Evernote for Pebble, and Clearly’s functionality into its Web Clipper.Īfter a little fiddling with the Web Clipper, I can see that is true-for the most part, at least. Lapplication peut brouiller lensemble de limage vidéo ou. Video Mosaic permet aux utilisateurs diPhone dutiliser leffet de flou lors de lenregistrement de vidéos ou dappliquer des effets de flou sur des vidéos précédemment enregistrées.

Where I’m disappointed is seeing Clearly go, as I use it every day to simplify articles for easier reading. 10 meilleures applications pour flouter un visage sur iPhone ou Android. Though I never used it, I understand Skitch had quite a following, and a number of users will be disappointed. It is not turning the apps “off,” but will no longer be updating them or offering them for download as of January 22, and they may break due to future changes to operating system or web browser. Evernote has announced it is ending support for three of its apps: the Skitch drawing app for Windows, Windows Touch, iOS, and Android (which it will continue to support for OS X), Evernote for Pebble, and the Evernote Clearly readability-reformatting extension that it launched in 2011.
