I found a few utilities by googling for: web screenshot automated

The first result talks about a couple utilities that'll do what you want.

http://iecapt.sourceforge.net/ - Windows only, uses IE for rendering
http://cutycapt.sourceforge.net/ - cross platform, uses the same
rendering engine as konquerer/google chrome/safari.

generating an image?

2008-12-11 Thread garagefan

Is it possible to generate an image, to save it on my server, of a web
page by passing through the url only?

say perhaps I want to link to a few sites from mine, and i'd like to
include a thumbnail of the site... and instead of taking a screen
capture, and uploading it, i pass through the url of the page, and the
image of the homepage is generated from that.

thanks
