Screen capture - desktop?

[TimS]

How would I redefine where the screen capture utilities (command-shift-3, etc.) place the image? I can cut out a step in my work if, rather than placing the image on the desktop, I can place it in a specific folder (or even a network folder).
Thanks.

If you install the Secrets prefpane there are several options you can change regarding screen captures, including the file destination.

works - but not to network

Thanks, Miles.
This may be as close as I can get. It works well, but won't save to a network folder.
Thanks for the help.

Can you save to an alias of a network folder?

Can't post to alias

No, I've been trying to do this without success. I also tried saving directly to the network folder.
In Windows, I could map a drive to the specific folder; am now exploring that possibility in OSX (10.6).
Thanks.
