I have created a website that i would like to add to my portfolio, but i'm having a hard time getting high quality screenshots of the full site.
I tried to save the website as PDF, but that was full of errors, other online services cant recreate the images and so on.
I've also just tried to take regular screenshots on the mac at put it all together, but it really lost a lot of quality when i scaled it down.

Any good ideas? :)

Just in case someone cares to read all the answers and wasn't satisfied with the above ones, which are also excellent, there is another screenshot plugin for Firefox: "Screengrab!". I don't know what resolution you can get, but the whole current page will be on the screenshot, not just the visible part. Aditionally, you can go and grab a specified selection or only the currently visible part of your screen, it saves to png format.

I recently started using Pagelayers for mac and I'm pretty happy with it.

Some things that I love:


Psd's can be generated at custom width & infinite height.
The generated psd's are broken down into groups and layers.
Can save to PNG directly


Some things that bother me:


Requires the page to be loaded on the app. No chrome extension. This
can be quite tedious, especially when you just want a simple
screenshot. (My biggest gripe with it)
The generated psd file can be quite large.


Things you might not like:

Price: £20

I have a different use case for it therefore I can justify the price, however you might not if you just need simple screenshots.

Hope this helps.

In Firefox, you can open the console with Shift+F2 and use screenshot --fullpage.

To scale it to different dimensions and sizes while preserving text quality, use Ctrl+Shift+M (or Cmd+Opt+M on OS X) to enter the responsive design viewer and resize as needed (you can also use this to get screenshots at higher resolution than your monitor supports, or get pictures of tablet/mobile views). No plug-ins necessary.

Firefox users just add a plugin called "Awesome Screenshot".
To download this addon visit following link addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/awesome-screenshot-capture-/
Chrome Users can go to chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/awesome-screenshot-captur/alelhddbbhepgpmgidjdcjakblofbmce?hl=en

this addon allows users to take screenshot of VISIBLE part as well as FULL PAGE, you can crop, insert shapes etc without switching to another program.

I recommend Faststone Capture, which you can also use outside the browser for anything else. Unfortunately, as mentioned by @McKeene , it has problems sticking the single images together to a big one because of the scrolling effect.

Version 5.3 is free (German download) for home users. Otherwise latest version is around .

If you want to take a full page screenshot on a website you can use this Google Chrome Plugin.

This will makes several screenshots (while scrolling) and combine them into one .png image.

You just have to click on the plugin and choose "Capture entire page".
