Uncluttered Screen Capture, Annotation and Sharing Tool

This is truly an indispensible app in my daily workflow. The thoughful simplicity and flexible but easy sharing options make it far and above the best app of its type that I’ve ever used, and I’ve used many. The dropbox sharing with built-in URL shortener lets me grab, annotate, and paste a short link in just a few seconds. This is perfect for me since I need to communicate visually in a variety of contexts like IM, website support thread, live meeting, email, whatever. And if I need to make a .png it is just a quick option-drag to any window. (Photoshop is the only app that for some reason wont accept Glui image drag and drop).

The only things on my wishlist would be 1) Adding a dashed line option - helpful to illustrate margin or alignment issues, and 2) ability to select tools with keyboard shortcuts or use the arrows for next/previous tool. Tool selection is the one thing that slows me down the most. It would also be great to be able to use plus/minus to increase/decrease size of a selected object rather than using the sizer scrollbar.

Other than that, I hope the developer resists the temptation to add features because its zen-like simplicity is really the best thing about Glui.

Thanks for the beautiful and useful app!
