Make your screenshot experience actually better.

This mod upgrades the default Minecraft screenshot system into something modern, fast, and genuinely enjoyable to use — no more tabbing out, digging through folders, or guessing if the shot even saved correctly.

Everything you need is right there, in-game.

🚀 Why use this mod?

Taking screenshots in vanilla Minecraft is... fine.
But checking them? Managing them? Sharing them quickly?

That’s where things get annoying.

This mod fixes all of that by bringing a smooth, integrated screenshot workflow directly into the game — so you can focus on playing, not file hunting.

🖼️ Built-in Gallery

Browse all your screenshots without leaving Minecraft.
Fast, simple, and always accessible.

📋 Copy & Share Instantly

Copy screenshots straight from the game and paste them anywhere — no need to open folders.

☁️ Optional Uploader Integration

Want to share screenshots even faster?
You can optionally upload directly from the game using providers like Imgur, S3, Custom HTTP/HTTPS endpoints, or Catbox.
