About this project

What does Ala Screen add?

Ala Screen

Sharing a Minecraft screenshot usually means leaving the game, finding the file and attaching it somewhere. Ala Screen makes it one click.

Press F2 exactly as you always have. The screenshot is saved to your screenshots/ folder exactly as it always was, and the message in chat gains one extra word:

Saved screenshot as 2026-11-07_19.33.28.png [share]

Click it, look at the shot, mark it up if you like, and you get a link:

Screenshot uploaded: alacraft.day/en/screenshots/aB3xY9kM [open] [copy link] [copy image] [delete]

The link is already on your clipboard. Pasted into Discord, it unfolds as the picture itself. [copy image] puts the picture there instead, for a chat that takes images.

You see it before it leaves

There is no way to scan pixels for things you did not mean to share. A screenshot can carry your coordinates from the F3 overlay, a conversation in chat, a private server address, somebody's name over their head — and no rule could reliably find any of it.

So the mod shows you the frame and asks. It is on by default. You can turn it off if you take fifty shots an evening; that is your decision to make, not ours.

Mark it up before you send it

The confirmation screen has a Mark up panel:

  • an arrow, a frame and a pen to point at what matters;
  • a cover-up block for a name, a chat line or coordinates — solid, not a blur, so nothing can be read back out of it;
  • crop, to keep only the part worth showing;
  • six colours and three line widths;
  • Ctrl+Z to undo, Ctrl+Y to redo, keys 1–5 to switch tools.

The marks are burnt into the picture that is sent; the file on your disk stays exactly as the game saved it, and the marked copy is saved next to it.

F2 shows you what it caught

After F2 a small preview appears in the corner with the shot and the key that shares it — no reaching for the mouse, no guessing which of six screenshots the chat line means. It follows your Notification Time setting, hides while a menu is open, and is one line in the config away from never appearing.

Built for the monitor you actually own

An ultrawide or a 4K panel produces a very large PNG every single time. Rather than refusing those, the mod scales the upload down to fit — and the file saved on your disk keeps its full resolution. Only the copy that travels is smaller.

When something goes wrong, it says what

Offline, rate limited, too large, too many pixels, and "a moderator removed it" are different messages, because they call for different responses — and most of them are not your fault.

Your uploads stay yours

Every upload comes with a delete token kept on your machine, so the link you shared this morning is still yours to remove tonight — after a restart, after a week. Deleting asks first. Screenshots are kept for 90 days from the last time anybody opened them.

Fourteen languages

Every line the mod prints follows your client's language: English, Russian, Ukrainian, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), Polish, Turkish, Czech, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified), Korean and Thai. The link follows it too, and opens the page in your language wherever the site has one.

Also

  • F7 captures and shares a fresh shot directly. Rebindable.
  • /alascreen list shows your recent uploads with their date and file name, and buttons to open or copy each one; /alascreen delete <id> removes one.
  • Point apiBaseUrl at your own instance if you run one.
  • Optional account token from your profile: uploads join your history and get a higher rate limit. Everything works without it.

Requirements

Minecraft 26.2 or 26.3, on Fabric (with Fabric API), Quilt (with Fabric API), NeoForge or Forge — pick the file for your game version and loader. Quilt uses the Fabric file and needs Quilt Loader 0.30.2 or newer. Forge needs 65.1.5 or newer on 26.2 and 66.1.0 or newer on 26.3; the NeoForge file for 26.3 is a beta for as long as NeoForge itself is one there.

Client side only — the server never needs it, and never knows.
