    ShareX is a great program, but there's so many settings that it needs a named settings saver.

    PicPick has a really good image editor in addition to the capture functionality. ShareX's image editing capabilities do not come close to PicPick's.

    Its color picker can sample 3x3 or 5x5 area, not just 1x1 pixel like seemingly all the alternatives.

    Ever tried using a color picker on a high resolution monitor? Its impossible. Thats why this color picker has a magnifier attached. Grab palettes of up to 16 colors at once and use four advanced color mixers to select a spectrum of possibilities.
