I recommend Color Snapshot FKEY by Mark III software.  It can copy the
whole screen or just a selection rectangle, and saves the selection
in five different file formats (Grayview, GIF (!), PixelPaint, PICT resource,
PICT2 file) or to the clipboard; a dialog box for this is given
when invoked.  It can also include pull-down menus in the snapshot.
Amazingly enough, it works perfectly with Stepping Out; I use it regularly
for doing file-type conversions on pictures larger than the screen.
And it's only $15, shareware.  One caveat: Mac II required.
