Snippy is a portable light-weight screen capturing tool for Windows where you can capture the required area with free hand drawing, and then paste into any image editor for further processing.

It looks much like cutting the important part of a website or application like you would cut a newspaper article.

A click on the Snippy icon changes the mouse cursor to a pen that can be used to encircle the area that the user wants to save, rectangular areas can still be saved by pressing the shift key. The final area will be send to the clipboard right away, if it was taken on a website the url of the website will also be send to the clipboard.
