Get Quickshot

If you are not using Ubuntu Lucid Lynx (10.04), the easiest, and recommended way to use Quickshot is to download the Quickshot Live DVD and boot into that to take screenshots.

http://files.ubuntu-manual.org/quickshot/ubuntu-manual-quickshot-i386-0.0.83.iso

Please note: This Live DVD is a stripped down version of Ubuntu 10.04 and therefore will not be suitable for anything other than a temporary platform to take screenshots.

Already using Ubuntu 10.04? Add our PPA by running these commands in a terminal: 

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:quickshotdevs/quickshot-release
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install quickshot

Using Quickshot

  1. Open Quickshot (Applications → Accessories → Quickshot)
  2. Create a Quickshot user and login
  3. Let Quickshot set your screen resolution
  4. Download the list of screenshots
  5. Choose a screenshot
  6. Set your desktop up
  7. Capture, Compare and Upload.
