Would you like to take screenshots of pictures, web pages or recipes or you want to use to write articles for wikiHow? Then here is the solution; use Awesome Screenshot, an easy screenshot add-on to use on Chrome. The add-on makes great screenshots of entire web pages or just visible parts of the page, and you can edit the screenshot before you save it.
