FireShot is a great tool to take a screenshot in Chrome. This tool gives you options whether you want to capture the entire page you are opening, the visible part or just certain area. Once you picked your option, the tool then will be start capturing. You can then save the captured page to a PNG or JPG file, depending on your settings.

In this example, I am going to use FireShot to take a screenshot of a selected part of one page on Bettertechtips.com, so I choose the third option, Capture selection. Then, what I have to do is determining the start point by clicking on it (the start point) and hold the mouse while selecting the area I want to capture. Once done selecting, FireShot will be taking me to a page where I can choose what to do next. Whether saving the captured page, send it via email or print it.

Where do your captured pages are saved?

FireShot will create a folder named “FireShot” under the Download folder on your computer account. You can find all of the captured pages on this folder.
