Have updated my screenshooter scripts (fullscreen, fullscreen+5s, active-window, selected-area) to source a config file, similar to mxfb-quickshot.conf (thanks Jerry...).

I can now set a general image viewer/editor to show the saved screenshot, like gimp or ristretto or gthumb, or blazingly-fast feh (<-- which is actually my favourite).
Or disable such application alltogether, so only saving the screenshots to the Screenshots folder.
Each script can be executed either by key combo, or from the rootmenu --> see below mock-up scrot

Hello JayM and hello ceeslans and everyone
Quickshot is the type of screen capture that i would reach for most often.
ceeslans Your menu list shows use of scripts, not use of commands. ,So I am wondering is that making trial of Quickshot or a script with <scrot>?
Do you find the same(?):
While outlining how to maneuver files from scrot into chosen folder location
Can be shared another way to get the scrot into a chosen folder. scrot saves to current directory. cd to the chosen directory, then scrot.
Passing no name to scrot gives timestamp-name and saves into current directory.
Passing a name and type to scrot applies name and saves into current directory using numbering for overwrite protection. ((Unless a part of that name describes a directory other than the current directory.))
like example from -quickshot script:

Code: Select all

take_shot () {
cd ${DESTDIR}
scrot -s -q 80 -d 2
}
or

Code: Select all

take_shot () {
cd ${DESTDIR}
scrot ${OPTION}
}
result is timestamp file in favorite folder.

Happy to see shared screenshots. Thanks everyone.

Thanks. Not sure if it is. I was on DDG searching for dark Debian wallpaper when I came across it.

EDIT: Apparently it is. I didn't even know that. hehehe

I was using this as a profile pic on Facebook a couple of years ago.

So I found out that the background image I used is the Kali Linux logo and wanted to give credit to MX Fluxbox instead. So I grabbed the MX pyramid logo from the web site and laid the Fluxbox logo on top of it. Now I can add my transparent MX Fluxbox logo to any desktop image I find on the internet.

Background is a symbiosis of @mojtabanow 's fluxlike wallpaper and @amigo 's stylish mx-linux logo. Easy on the eyes and low on resources
