Screenshotr is an application that enables you to take desktop snapshots to quickly upload to Flickr. It doesn't include complex options or configuration settings, making it accessible to all types of users, even those inexperienced with screenshot utilities.

No setup necessary, besides Java

The whole tool's wrapped in an executable .jar file that can be copied to a preferred directory on the disk or on a USB flash drive, in order to directly run Screenshotr on any computer, as long as it has Java installed. It doesn't make any changes to the system registry or create files on the HDD without asking for your permission.

Simple GUI with Flickr authorization

As far as the interface is concerned, the program opts for a normal window with a simple design and intuitive options, where you can start by authorizing the screenshot app from your web browser to allow image uploads to Flickr.

Crop, pixelate and upload photos

There is only one snapshot mode available: full screen. Multiple tabs are supported to display multiple taken screenshots. Moreover, the photos can be cropped or various parts of them can be pixelated with a brush tool before uploading to Flickr.Alternatively, you can dispose of unwanted pictures. It's also possible to paste images from the Clipboard. Meanwhile, keyboard shortcuts are supported for grabbing the screen and pasting pics.

Evaluation and conclusion

It worked smoothly in our tests, without causing the OS to hang, crash or indicate errors. Although it hasn't received updates for a long time, it ran without any issues on newer Windows models. Images were captured and uploaded swiftly while the program remained light on system resources consumption.On the other hand, it doesn't contain additional snapshot modes, such as custom region or active window. Nevertheless, Screenshotr gets the job done and can be easily used.
