Make plain screenshots presentation-ready
A flat screenshot dropped straight into a slide or social post often looks unfinished. This tool wraps your screenshot in a gradient background with adjustable padding, rounded corners and a soft drop shadow — turning a quick capture into something polished enough to share.
Controls
- Background Style — pick from sunset, ocean, forest and purple gradients, or clean dark/light backgrounds.
- Padding — how much background shows around the screenshot.
- Border Radius — rounds the screenshot's corners for a softer look.
- Shadow Intensity — adds depth so the screenshot appears to float above the background.
Good for
App store preview images, product screenshots for a landing page, tweet/LinkedIn post visuals, or dressing up a screenshot before pasting it into a presentation or document.
Can I use my own background color instead of a preset?
The current presets cover the most common gradient and solid styles. If you need a specific brand color, exporting and editing further in a design tool is the best next step.
What size will the final image be?
The output matches your original screenshot's dimensions plus the padding you choose on each side, so larger padding produces a larger final image.
Is my screenshot uploaded anywhere to apply these effects?
No — the gradient background, padding, corner rounding and shadow are all rendered locally using the Canvas API, so your screenshot never leaves your device.
Can I preview the result before downloading?
Yes — every adjustment updates a live preview instantly, so you can fine-tune padding, corners and shadow before exporting the final image.
Using this in a Central Government office
Screenshots turn up in official documents more often than anyone plans for — a portal error being reported to a service desk, a step-by-step guide for a new system, evidence of what a page displayed on a given date.
Where this comes up
- Reporting a portal problem where the error message itself is the evidence.
- User guides for a departmental system, where an annotated screenshot explains a step faster than a paragraph.
- Presentations and training material, where a raw screenshot looks unfinished against the rest of the deck.
Check the screenshot before it leaves your machine
This is the part that goes wrong. A screenshot taken to show an error frequently also shows a browser tab bar, a taskbar, an open email preview, an employee ID or a file number that has nothing to do with the problem being reported. Crop to the region that matters and look at the whole image once more before attaching it — including the edges. Padding and a frame make a screenshot presentable; they do not make it safe to share.
