Hey everyone
I am building documentation now and then (more often than I have thought
tough). Sometimes I need to include images of the reports in the docs and I
am looking for a graphic tool that can make ragged borders, like this one:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms965281.vfp9rw_inaction_02_large%28
l=en-us%29.gif
Adobe Photoshop doesn't have it, Gimp doesn't have it, Paint.NET doesn't
have it. I am running out of ideas. Anyone can help me with a suggestion,
please?
Thank you.

Try "Snagit" (http://www.techsmith.com/snagit/default.asp)
I believe it does what you need.

If you have Windows7, there is the Snipping Tool that will do.

I couldn't find any such option in Sniping tool - it just captures
regions/windows entirely and then let you adding annotation to the image.

Do you have a preview option for your reports? If you do, then the Snipping
Tool should be able to capture the image of the previewed report. Save it as
a JPEG and include it in your documentation. Don't know what you're writing
your documentation in but more crafting apps have a way of inserting JPEGs.

Ah, I got it now :) We have a misunderstanding here. :)
Alan, I was talking about creating the ragged edge at the bottom of this
image:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms965281.vfp9rw_inaction_02_large%28
l=en-us%29.gif
See it? It looks like a torn paper and some drop shadow underneath.
Currently I'm doing it by hand by cutting a region using lasso tool, then
drop shadow on the edge, but it's a long process. I was directed to snagit
which does is in a single move. :)

Ulead photoimpact might do it if you can get a copy since corel took it over

FYI, GIMP has it. In Python, of course, the scripting language of choice :)
