Web Page Screen Capture As Image

Web Page Screen Capture As Image


I was working in the a project. The task was, read a CSV file which containing the list of search text and URLs or take iput url from webpage and take the screen shot of that URL as a jpg file, then insert it into database or show it's image url .
It is same as Google search. when you make a search in google then google show the result. if you mouse move on the resultant text then two arrow ">>" will be there....  just mouse over on the two arrow ">>"... you can find the it's related site's page as a image.

There are lots of websites which provide thumbnail images as a service.
but by boss was NOT interested in relying on any third party website.
He need to generate png or jpeg images on his server/machine as fast as
possible after a new URL is submitted. So I have created this utility
in Dot net. Due to permission issue I can not show the code, but I have posted
it's normal prototype.


I have created this utility software in two types.
1) A simple use, by this just put the URL and you will find the it's image.
2) A batch use, by using this just give it the CSV file of having urls and it will save all urls screen cap as image.

To run it you only need to install Dot Net Framework 4.0 Redistributionand no need to other file, because I have developed this without using any third party or DLL file.
