About this extension

LightShot Screenshot productivity tool

Read the publisher’s full description

LightShot Screenshots is a feature-rich screenshot program for browser. You can take a screenshot of a specific area, window, your whole screen, or even of a website – apply different effects to it, draw on it to highlight points, and then upload to an image hosting site, all within one window. Especially if you are taking screenshots for writing tutorials or manuals you need to edit the image, e.g. highlighting some part of it. You can do all that with LightShot!
