Skitch allows you to take screenshots on your Mac, edit them and share them with others. It makes the sharing process seamless by making it a natural workflow to send the image (with edited arrows and other highlights helpful to your client) to them via email or automatic website uploads. It is especially popular with the designer community, as they show their clients rough drafts of their work in a nearly automated process. It makes it simple to work remotely with someone and pass on work revisions and get feedback quickly. Other uses include:
Wow. For anyone who ever needs to take a screenshot, annotate it, and post it somewhere on the web, this app is an absolute must-have. I can hardly even believe that it's free.
You can download the PPC/Leopard compatible version from most of the dev's pages OTHER than the home page. It's not clear that it is Leopard compatible until you click on it, and I have verified on my PowerBook that it does indeed run.
I use Skitch for a variety of purposes, including marking work for the online class that I teach. I can take a screenshot, write comments all over it on a tablet, then export the result as a JPEG that quickly uploads for feedback to the students.
Then there are the quick screenshots to show them how to do stuff, or to show them where things are (complete with big red arrows), or ...
In short, in my e-learning environment this has proved to be the best of class of this type of software for me – pun intended!
The only thing I'm slightly irritated about is that I paid for it. But hey, you have to roll with the punches, right? I reckon it paid for itself!

When I visit the web site, it takes ages to get any particular page to come up.
