Jing Tip #46: Make a Speedier Save Button
Jing comes with three share output buttons: Screencast.com (where you get a handy link to paste into an email, IM, forum, etc.), Save, and Copy (for images only).
Did you know you can have up to 8 buttons? It just takes a little setup. In this Jing Tip we specifically show you how to make a Save button...with a twist. Instead of the button always prompting you where you want to save it, you can specify a destination. This was so handy for me when I was capturing dozens of user interface elements and storing them to a network drive.
Another area where this comes up is when people buy Jing Pro and wonder why the YouTube button isn't there. Some people have to work to learn they need to set it up themselves. That might not be the right implementation on our end, but we've had a very "don't-mess-with-people's-buttons" mantra around here.
Here's my button setup:

How did you do those circular buttons in the screengrab?
@Dan I used the beta version of Snagit for Mac. Those numbers were one of many stamps that are included with the download. It's also how I threw on the torn edge effect and shadow.
You can all download it here--it's a public beta.

Originally I was just going to use the Jing text tool but with so many so close together it looks pretty rough.

Cool - would love to see those circular stamps in Jing one day...
