LayersApp.com - Screen Forensics For Mac Users

This is one for all the many Mac users who are keen Killer Startups followers. Layers is a new app that enables anybody to capture his displays as a Photoshop layered image. That is, through such an application it is possible to capture different windows separately and naming each layer on its own, as well as repositioning the images as the user sees fit.

Captures can be saved as layered PSD images or composite PNG files, and a tool that goes by the name of “Inspector” is used to customize each capture. Of course, the system is fully adaptable as regards customization and attribution of hotkeys and the like.

As far as system requirements are concerned, Layers is available to those who run Mac OS X 10.5 – IE, the vast majority of Mac users out there. You can purchase the full version at the site for an amount that is set down online, or procure a free evaluation copy. I advice you to check the site out and keep this neat app in mind should image processing tasks be the order of the day.

“Capture your displays as a Photoshop layered image. Don't waste time capturing each window separately, importing them in your favorite PSD editor, naming the layers, positioning the images, etc. Do it with Layers in no time! Press the capture hotkey or customize your capture in the inspector. You'll obtain a full fledged PSD file with one layer per window, including menu and desktop icons, dock and menubar.”

It is a superb way for Mac users to capture and process images on the fly.
