Can't load that page with either Opera, Firefox, Palemoon or IE8, with Hosts File and all ad blockers disabled.
I give up, It shall remain a mystery.
That's perplexing. It works fine on mine!

Possibly blocked by your antivirus, firewall, ISP, etc.
Could have been, but nope, I've just opened that page with Dragon. It is good for something!
(Just jk'n.)
So at last I can have a look at SF's program, and it does do a decent job of capturing a full size web page ...
There aren't too many free options out there which can capture a "scrolled" page, and even then some of them don't do a very good job at all.
The negative is that it's a large install, 40mb, when grits only needs the one feature that FastStoneCapture can't do with Win7.
I would add that there wasn't anything at all during the install in way of extra's to be avoided.

I just tested, & all that you need for it to run is webshot.exe (183 KB).
The rest of it (uninstaller files/64 bit/cmd, cef folder, etc.) can be safely deleted.
CEF mode has a single file (libcef.dll) that is just over 23 MB by itself.
You don't really need all that for it to work. %programfiles%\webshot\webshot.exe is all you need.
Absolutely right.
The webshot.exe file runs fine all on it's lonesome, and does the same nifty job on a scrolled web page.
Of course we wouldn't suggest it be used like that because it could encourage people to do something like install into a sandbox and then copy out the webshot.exe file to use as a standalone, and that's not the way it's intended to be used.
Interesting exercise all the same.
It was also interesting that the second time I installed it, I got the "extras" page. All easily refused with the options check boxes, and no different to a lot of other respectable freeware.

That's because only a fool would attack the Dragon, they'd be turned into bite size crisps.
OK, I yield. Good app.
I never let a little thing like ignorance keep me from having an opinion.
Glad you tried it out Dennis.
Guess I'll have to download it now. >sigh<
the free version of webshot seems to be fairly limited (no color)
Why not just print the webpage to jpg with pdfcreate or other softprinter with a fit page to paper option?
I also found a nirsoft program

SiteShoter is a small utility that allows you to save a screenshot of any Web page into a file. It automatically creates hidden window of Internet Explorer, loads the desired Web page, and than save the entire content of the Web page into an image file (.png, .jpg, .tiff, .bmp or .gif). You can also use SiteShoter to convert .html file on your local drive into image file.You can use SiteShoter in user interface mode, or alternatively, you can run SiteShoter in command-line mode without displaying any user interface.
System Requirements
This utility works on Windows XP, Window 2003 Server, Window 2008 Server, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. You can also use this utility in Windows 2000, if GDI+ is installed.
Notice for IE9
If Internet Explorer 9.0 is installed on your system, SiteShoter will use the version 7.0 of Internet Explorer. In order to force SiteShoter to use IE9, you have to add the .exe file of SiteShoter into the Registry.

Don't know... It was in color on my machine. If it only did B&W, I wouldn't even use it.

nevermind it's only the midline the's color hobbled
I believe it just does grayscale as a limitation if your running the commanline. But GUI of it works fine...
I've taken quite a few examples while looking at it, and all in full colour as was the first one I did above ..

I still agree with you about the full install login, and wouldn't recommend that to gritz.
yes my spellchecker fixed cmdline to midline, sorry

Predictive Texting must have no end of fun with you
Hi all,
Thanks for all your replies in my absence of several days. I don't understand some of them: "cmdliine, midline,predictive texting" ?
Will get back to this tomorrow & do some checking out of your suggestions but feel I need to clarify my biggest need for 'scroll capture'. I rarely need it for a web page. My need is for captures to post in help forums to show what I probably can't describe in words or to show the whole thing. An example would be all the warnings & errors in my Events Viewer.
Not sure that's a good explanation but need to get out of here to ready for big dinner.
"Merry Christmas",
grits
Events Viewer has an export facility that should suit.
Alternatively as a general purpose tool I strongly recommend SysExporter
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/sysexp.html
This is able to capture almost anything.
I have just launched Event Viewer and selected the Applications Tab for display and this has 3811 events.
I launch SysExporter and it displays the same, and I can then select all items and export in various modes including text and Html
I prefer "Copy Selected Items (Tab Delimited).
You can append such text files to posts on this or other forums.
Inspiresoft has a free Screenshoter utility that is really cool.
I sent an email to him, suggesting adding screenshot capture for entire webpage, including parts scrolled off the screen.
