Awesome Screenshot - Chrome add-on looks great
This looks like a very valuable Chrome browser 'extension' (ie. add-on), and much easier to use than trying to manipulate a screen shot in a graphic program later. It surely has a wide range of uses.

Use images always, everywhere, they enhance text and readability
We are wired for visual imagery. An image can express – in a fraction of a second – a mood, a truth, or just an enticement to keep reading a text article. Use them constantly!
Creative commons (i.e. broadly free to use) images can be found through an advanced image search at Google or Flickr. There are also many other sources of free photos, graphics and icons, including Bible images.

Present information visually - a key to effective biblical communication
“The soul never thinks without a picture” – Aristotle.
In other words, most of us find it very hard to understand abstract truth unless it is presented to us as a picture. In the street, or on our computer desktops, we look for the logo of the product we seek, be it a SubWay sandwich or a computer program, rather than the written equivalent.
