Is there a way to capture a screenshot of a browser window / webpage which is larger than the MacBook Air (1366x768) screen it's displayed on?

I need to have captures of how a site displays in a 1280x1024 window. I can use Moom to resize the browser window, but not sure how to get the snap.

Pressing ⌘⇧4, then space, then clicking the window only enables you to capture the visible parts on the screen. To capture a whole webpage, you can use Snagit, or some web-based applications like Site2pic and Webpage Screenshot Capture. All these tools allow you to screenshot an entire webpage just with its URL. –  user83870 Sep 1 at 8:11
True for both — I use a Chrome extension to do that sort of thing — but I was looking for the browser window, and not just the webpage. My question was a bit unclear. I do appreciate your chiming in though. –  Brooks Seymore Sep 7 at 21:49

You can take screenshots of entire windows, even those that extend beyond the bounds of the screen, by pressing ⌘⇧4, then space, then clicking the window.

Hmm. In my case, it just gave me a shot of the window that was visible on screen but I'm looking for a slightly different use case. –  Brooks Seymore Dec 12 '13 at 20:53
