Am I just screwing this up or is the time marking on screenshots not allowing more than 1 screenshot per second?

I just took 3-4 screenshots in or around 1 second and it only saved 2 of them. You can see in the images that I made 3-4 of the same SS with the exact same name and it is overwriting. Wtf?
Is this just because Blizzard added the time stamp in the last patch? Has anyone else noticed this?

what use do you have for more than 1 ss p/ second. pretty innate gripe if you ask me.

You can make 1 ss / second. If you try to make more the former one gets overwritten until new second starts. never thought about it actually, dunno if there is any use of having more than 1 ss / second in starcraft

Ever tried to get a good shot of a nuke going off? That's when you need more than 1 ss/sec

You nailed it right I think. Get an external screenshot program (SnagIt for example, though I'm sure there must be plenty of high quality freeware ones).

Most .gif creation software gives the option of converting .avi files into .gifs, from what I've seen.

Well actually I was trying to show a probe's return path and also this hinders the possibility of making exact .gif animations as well.

Yea, I can make a video (thats what I ended up doing) but the file is much larger, and I don't need sound, and it is more of a hassle to do. Besides, not everyone has camtasia or w/e.
