How to beautify a screenshot

  1. Paste a screenshot with Ctrl+V or Cmd+V, drop a file on the box, or select Choose file.
  2. Pick a Two-tone gradient or a Solid background and choose your colors. The presets are a quick start.
  3. Set the padding, corner roundness and shadow. Turn on Browser frame to put the screenshot in a window with a title bar.
  4. Check the preview. It shows the exact pixels you will get at 1x.
  5. Download a PNG 1x or PNG 2x file.

Why it helps

A raw screenshot on a white page looks flat and its edges disappear. A little padding, a soft shadow and rounded corners separate it from the page and make it look deliberate. A browser frame tells people at a glance that they are looking at a web page. These small touches make posts, documentation, release notes and slides look more finished.

Export sizes

The 1x file is your screenshot size plus the padding on each side, plus a 36 pixel title bar if the frame is on. The 2x file doubles both dimensions. Use 2x when the image will be shown on a sharp screen or scaled down in a slide, and 1x when file size matters more.

The page shows both sizes under the preview, so you know what you will get before you download.

Tips

  • Pick a gradient that complements your brand colors, not one that competes with the screenshot.
  • Use more padding for social posts and less for documentation.
  • Hide private details first. Crop out names, emails and tokens with the crop tool.
  • Big PNG files can be made smaller with the image compressor, or set an exact size with the image resizer.
  • For jokes and captions, try the meme generator.

Your screenshot never leaves your device, and the page works without an account.

Questions

How do I paste a screenshot?

Take a screenshot to your clipboard, open this page and press Ctrl+V, or Cmd+V on a Mac. You can also drop a file or use Choose file.

What is the difference between 1x and 2x?

1x exports at the screenshot's own size plus padding. 2x doubles the width and height for sharper results on high density screens and slides.

Why is 2x disabled for my screenshot?

Browsers limit canvas size, and phones are stricter. When the 2x result would be too large the button is disabled. Lower the padding or use 1x.

Is my screenshot uploaded?

No. The picture is drawn on a canvas in your browser and exported from there.

Can I use a transparent background?

The background is a solid color or a two-tone gradient. Pick a color that matches your page if you want it to blend in.
