I am using Jing for screen capture but when I upload the image to use
for my blog post it loses it clarity and gets blurred.

Can you suggest the solution to this problem or an alternative

    (quote modified by StanHyeck for brevity)
    This problem is almost always caused by improper scaling of the image. Try making the image the size you want it to be for your blog, that size on your computer. You can use GIMP as a free image editor to do the scaling before you upload.

    This way on your blog the image is already the correct size, no scaling required, no blurring should occur.

    Hope this helps

      I use WinSnap. I've never had to mess with resizing any images ... they just come out looking exactly like the original screen upon capture.

      The best to you,

      I use pc so screen cast o matic is great and cheap 17$.

      If u have mac camtasia is great.

      With screencast o matic you have a choice to pock the size of window you want to capture. I always use full screen, use my windows movie maker to edit and upload on youtube in hd.

      I take the embed code once its loading and embed it on my blog.

      Hope the helps.

    you can use snagit for a PC, it works pretty well.

    Snagit works like a charm. Can edit the images very easily. Not free though.

    Yeah, snag it works well for me. 30 bucks for a year, I think, so not massively expensive.
