# Screenshot Beautifier — Padding, Gradients & Window Frames

> Wrap a plain screenshot in a gradient, rounded corners, a shadow and browser chrome.

To beautify a screenshot, drop it in and choose a background, padding, corner radius and frame. The screenshot is composited onto a gradient canvas at the exact export size you pick — Open Graph, YouTube thumbnail, Instagram square or the screenshot's own ratio — with optional macOS window or browser chrome drawn around it.

## FAQ

### Why does my screenshot get smaller when I add padding?

On a fixed canvas size the padding eats into the available box, so the screenshot scales down to fit. Switch the canvas to "Match the screenshot ratio" and the canvas grows around the image instead, keeping it at full size.

### Will text in my screenshot stay readable?

It depends on the export size. A 2560px-wide capture placed on a 1200 × 630 Open Graph card is being downscaled by more than half, and small UI text will blur. Crop to the region that matters before beautifying rather than shrinking the whole window.
