go to www.download.com, and check out screenImg 1.0 (shareware)
this program takes screenshots and saves them as jpegs to the hard drive (u
specify it in the preferences). this is how i would approach this. u build
an interface for reporting bugs, and have an upload file thingy. have the
users install this shareware, and they can make it save the picture with the
press of a hot key. then they can upload the pic too!

Subject: OT: Posting screenshots
Hi folks,
I know that this is something that is going to need to be handled
client-side, hence the OT. I'm working on an internal project/task/time
management system that has recently had quality assurance (read: bug
tracking) capabilities incorporated.
In the past our testers (and in some cases clients) have created MS Word
docs and copied in screenshots to give developers a better grasp of where
applications "die". This is done by hitting CTRL Print Screen and then
pasting the image into the word doc. I've been asked if there is a way to
build this feature into the reporting form. In other words, grab whatever
is in the clipboard or pasted into a field and save it as an image. Browser
compatibility is not an issue, everyone that's using the app is on IE 5 or
higher. My boss remembers being able to grab the contents of the clipboard
from FoxPro apps he used to build, but he realizes that he was building a
specific client.
Any suggestions? If you'd feel more comfortable replying off-list, my
e-mail is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
TIA
