(And gee whiz, who doesn't want the SnagIt Editor running at all times?) Without that option enabled, I found it absolutely maddening. Even if you enable that option, the editor is aggravatingly slow. That delay is only partially mitigated if you configure the SnagIt Editor to run in the background at all times.

However, I completely despise the skin garbage they've added to it. SnagIt was among the very best in this genre.
