displaying it in the center of the screen is probably even worse since it 
means it will block anything in the center of the screen.

instead, i'd suggest moving it when the mouse cursor is moved over it. perhaps 
to the opposite corner of the screen.

it could also be moved to the top center of the screen (be careful about 
multiple screens, in that case, of course :), though it would still require 
"move when mouse enters".

anyways.. in snapshottimer.cpp, you can move it using move(QPoint) .. e.g., 
something like:

const QRect screenGeom = qApp->desktop()->screenGeometry();
move(screenGeom.x() / 2 - width() / 2, screenGeom.y());

then in an enterEvent(QEvent *event) you could do something like:

const QRect screenGeom = qApp->desktop()->screenGeometry();
move(screenGeom.x() / 2 - width() / 2, screenGeom.bottom());

(moving it to the bottom of the screen, and away from the mouse .. )
