I guess "automagically appending numbers to screen captures" does not work anymore. At least i could not find an option for this and adding it everytime in the dialog window that pops up is kind of annoying. (Would be nice to have an option for this, so this window would not pop up every time you do a screenshot.)

Edit: Ok, i have to correct myself. Aparently it still does autoname the captures. At least sometimes... Which is then a bug.
I tried it twice now and one time it would increase the numbers and another time is just overwrites the first picture over and over. Look below why. o.o

Detailed report:
When you do a screencapture, the dialog window opens, so you could rename it. If you leave it open long enough, VBA automagically saves a file with appended, increasing number. But if you press enter too fast, you overwrite the unnumbered image (which has the default filename of the rom).
If you press ESC, VBA only saves the auto-increasing numbered image. If you press ESC very fast it does not save any image at all.
It would be nice to have an option to turn that dialog off (as I have stated above) if you want to have auto-increasing filenames.
Also i noted that sometimes it does not autocreate an image with an appended number, even if you wait. You have to press ESC and F12 again so it will create one.
