White on black screenshots?

My problem: I switch the mac to the Black on White setting, in universal options... is there any program I can use to take screenshots of the system while it's in this setting, but while keeping the Black on white effect, because the screenshots revert to  their normal color pattern when I switch back to White on black, any suggestions?

Just reverse them in an image editor.

Hmm, would anything free do this? I don't really have any image editors blush

GIMP or GIMPShop, take your pick, though they both need you to install X11, they are the same but GIMPShop has an interface a little closer to photoshop

I didn't look at the list of provided effects, but Image Tricks (free and Pro versions, UB, no X11 required) might do it.

Re: White on black screenshots?

You can also do basic things using the print panel.

Go to ColoSync in the print panel that comes down when you print something (the screen shot for instance). Now select a quartz filter.

You can then print to pdf and convert in preview after.
