Generally this situation comes when you need to take a plan etc details of a website. The Simplest way is to press the ‘Print Scrn’ button, but most of the sites today are long. Eventually you’ll need to take multiple screenshots and join them.

There are obviously online screenshot generators, but most of them provide low quality images or place you in a long queue. Here is a do-it-yourself trick.

There are many options to configure like the size of thumbnail generated, default directory etc. You can edit the file webthumb.php using notepad.

Usage:

Extract the contents of zipped file and place it in a folder (lets say ‘image’) inside your apache root directory. Use IE, and type the following URL

http://localhost/image/webthumb.php?url=http://www.google.com/

If the output image exists in the directory path specified, it will display the image in browser itself

Similarly to generate any site thumbnail, type

http://localhost/image/webthumb.php?url=http://www.bing.com/

You can specify the size of thumbnail directly too

http://localhost/image/webthumb.php?url=http://www.google.com/&x=200&y=200
