Screenshots

Might be a bit petty or whatever, but is there any chance of having the screengrab option making jpegs instead of bitmaps? i keep finding my goddamn screenshot folder is over a gig in size, each of those pics are over 3meg in size, which i think is a bit unreasonable.

png's might be a better (and more in keeping) option?

PNG would be better - not as compressed as jpgs but you save all those nasty aliasing effects...

I didn't even know that it was bitmaps on Windoze.

Screenshots have been PNGs on the Mac forever (well, at least since 1.65). Guess it's good to have a unified cross-platform format.

This is good... now if only I could re-map the screenshot keys, shift+8, to a single button on my stick. A 'gunsight' camera, in effect.
