With the Screenshot Object Tagging feature, a Facebook synced member can drag and drop their self or any of their Facebook friends on top of a screenshot image connecting a persons gaming persona to their real life identity. "The ability for gamers to connect their gaming identity with their real life identity is something I think they would love to do." says Sam Morris founder of GamerShots.

In addition to the public beta launch of GamerShots.com, GamerShots is releasing an open source desktop Screenshot Capturing application (Windows 7, Vista and XP).
