It’s simple, fast, and feels like a natural part of Minecraft Creative building.

All custom painting tools are grouped in a new More Paintings tab.

Custom Painting Item
A special item that stores your uploaded PNG data.

In‑Game Upload GUI
Right‑click with the item to open a clean upload screen and pick a PNG from your computer.

Automatic Size Detection
The GUI shows your image’s width and height immediately.

Wall Placement
Right‑click a wall face to place your custom painting in the world.

Persistent Data
Painting data is stored via block entity NBT and saved with the world.
