Why not change the resolution of the picture afterwards (either with GDI+ or with an external tool like irfanview or imagemagic)?

I frequently use this...to copy pitures/doc's screen shots to emails..
It is really a non sense that it occupies 5Mb per screen shot.
i need to caputure the screen shot and reduce the resolution to less (jpg not bmp) and when i paste it, it should occupy less space.
Thanks,
Alangar

[10] You should just use Evernote.

[10] but i am really not interested in capturing a image and then saving it as a file
[10] and then reducing it

Then you will probably have no luck. I never saw an example of in-clipboard image manipulation on this forum.10:52]

Z_Gecko,
can't we process this image temporarily in a temp file, reduce a resolution and copy the image ?
Will this not work.?

you can, but it will require an external tool to make the change. Look in the utils section for a command line image resizer, or use imagemagick, which is a command line image resizer...
take the screenshot
save to hard drive
call imagemagick
paste image to document
if you have imagemagick convert the file to a png, it won't be 5MB anymore.

making it a jpg will reduce the file size as much as reducing the resolution. png might even be better.
