I was wondering if there are any good recommendations on apps that takes screenshots of the iPhone simulator. I've tried apps like iPhone screenshot cropper but I'm looking for something that will allow me to make larger images. For example large enough to put on a poster. Any suggestions?

Update: I think that my answer is not optimal anymore, thanks to this other answer from Gurpartap Singh (where cmd+S directly saves the image to your desktop). I'm not sure from which version of the iOS Simulator is this possible, but it's better and faster!

You can also try cmd+ctrl+C while in the iOS simulator. Then open Preview or an image editing program and try cmd+N (the image is in the clipboard).

Edit: According to apple's new guidelines we need to provide high resolution screenshots. For that go to Simulator->Hardware->Device->iphone(Retina). You will be able capture images in 640 × 960 using cmd+S .
