SnapCasa: website thumbnail generator

After some unsuccessful searching for a website thumbnail service I found SnapCasa. The free version lets you use 100000 thumb requests per month without watermarks. If you combine this with some server side script to cache and serve the image directly from your server you have nothing to worry about. Another thing I needed was the ability to get screenshots of inner pages (other services such as Girafa‘s free version only allow captures of homepages). SnapCasa has that too.

The website looks and feels pretty new and sloppy. Although some account pages have “Untitled Document” as the title and other sections lack content, it does the job.

Oh, and support is quite responsive. Didn’t take any time to receive a reply.

Here are some comparisons (only found them after setting up snapcasa):
