When you take a screenshot in Snow Leopard, the file is saved on your desktop by default. If you are taking lots of screenshots, why clutter your desktop. Wouldn't it be more productive if you have these screenshots placed into a folder of your choice.
To save screenshots to a specific folder by default,
1) Open a Terminal session
2) Enter the following
defaults write com.apple.screencapture location /Users/keith/Desktop/Screenshots
3) You can restart or enter the following in the same Terminal session
killall SystemUIServer
Once you make this change, you need to restart your machine for the change to take effect. But once you do that, all future screenshots will be saved to the new location.
