Auto-saving screenshots overwrites previous file

Sometimes I browse around sites taking a bunch of screenshots. Turns out that if each page has the same title, Web Snapper will overwrite each previous screenshot with the new one (if I've turned on "autosave"). Instead you should probably just auto-increment like the Mac screenshot utility does:

Picture 1.png

Picture 2.png

etc

Hey Chris,

I'm sorry it took so long for me to get back to you on this.

First of all thank you for you suggestion on overwrite protection for auto-saving screenshots. I am the Web Snapper head developer and I have implemented your suggestion. I have also added the ability to drag and drop snapper items back onto Safari or any other app as a URL. So you can now drag a snapper item onto safari and it will load the URL related to that item. This will all be available in the next update of Web Snapper which should be out some time tomorrow.

Thanks again,

Brandon M. Holland
