Well, there is no way you can speed up the process of taking a screenshot from DDMS. Since I am guessing, you want to capture a Toast message, the best possible solution is to set a longer length for the Toast Message using something like this.
You could try triggering a screenshot by using a monkeyrunner.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
