Description

Take better screenshots in Minecraft.

Nicephore enhances Minecraft's built-in screenshot system with a full-featured gallery, image optimization, and clipboard integration — all without leaving the game.


Gallery

Browse all your screenshots in an infinite-scroll gallery with a clean sidebar layout. Thumbnails load on-the-fly, so it handles hundreds or even thousands of screenshots without breaking a sweat.

  • Infinite scroll — no more clicking through pages
  • Sort by date — newest or oldest first, with subtle day separator lines
  • Filter by format — show PNG, JPEG, or both
  • Hover info — date and file size on mouse-over
  • Configurable grid — auto-fit or set 2–6 columns

Screenshot Management

  • Detail view — view any screenshot full-size with one click
  • Copy to clipboard — copy screenshots directly (Windows & macOS)
  • Rename — rename screenshots from the detail view
  • Trash system — move screenshots to trash instead of deleting permanently, with restore and auto-cleanup after 30 days
  • Bulk operations — select multiple screenshots and trash them at once

Image Optimization

Nicephore can automatically optimize your screenshots for smaller file sizes with no quality loss:

  • PNG optimization via oxipng
  • JPEG creation — optionally save a compressed JPEG copy alongside the PNG for easy sharing
  • JPEG optimization via ECT

Keybindings

Key Action
Ctrl+C Copy last screenshot to clipboard
Ctrl+S Open screenshot detail view
Ctrl+G Open gallery

Configuration

All settings are accessible in-game via the gallery sidebar:

  • Toggle JPEG creation
  • Toggle optimization
  • Toggle clipboard auto-copy
  • Toggle custom screenshot message
  • Adjust gallery column count
  • Set PNG optimization level
  • Set JPEG compression quality

Client-side only. No server required.
