Go to to download it, and give it a try. In addition to doing that you can also go and grab images from your photo collection, from inside of I-photo and then it will show your I-photo library there, so right now Skitch is still officially in beta but its pretty robust. Now instead of screen capture if you want to simply draw, you can create a new document inside of Skitch and it gives you a background and then you can draw on top of that and create your own images. To crop you can drag the edges of the inside of a frame like this, and cropping works like that. Resizing and cropping works in a very unique way in Skitch to re-size you drag one of the corners of the frame, like that, its easy to undo. There's also this handy idea of a history that you can save the current image to a history and view your history there and you can save many copies of the same document as you work on it and then choose which one to go to by clicking on it in history.

Its a lot quicker than say, exporting from another location, uploading to your own website and then showing them from there. You can simply take a screen shot of something you want to show somebody, add a few arrows and text to it, and then press a button, and its at your Skitch account on the website, then you can share that location with somebody else.

So the editing tools are your basic drawing tools, like pencil, line, circles and that sort of thing. We put it inside of the Skitch frame, as an image, and now we can edit. Then we go back into Skitch and we can see that it has taken the captured area.

And then we go and capture a piece of the screen. So for instance lets bring up, a browser window, switch to Skitch, and do capture using cross-hair. We can use capture, and then a variety of ways to capture something. Lets start by using it as a screen capture tool. It goes with the concept of this frame, wrapped around the image, and all of the tools are in the frame. Its a very different look for a graphics program. So after you download Skitch, and you run it, this is what you get. And its really a screen capture tool, but it has some very powerful drawing tools inside of it, which makes it useful as a drawing tool as well.
