Wtf is going on with that white border?

Someone took a screenshot, pasted it into MS Paint, and then forgot to crop it.

Source: personal experience lol

Why not just right click/long press > save image?

[–] kyle@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Normally I'm pasting it in to Slack or similar, not posting it on Lemmy, so in my experience I don't care or want it to get saved to my computer.

Alright then, right click > copy image. Depending on your OS, taking a screenshot usually also saves it to your storage.

Control shift S, choose crop area and then you can just control v to paste it in whatever chat.

why would you ever want to do that

[–] kyle@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

Sometimes people add stupid stuff to a meme and I just want an easy way to crop it.

MS Paint for me is just an easy crop tool that I can add text to if I want. I understand it's a garbage tool but it hasn't changed in 20 years so I don't need to learn anything new lol.

Use lightshot. It's free and good.

Calm down. I don’t think that’s the topic.

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 15 points 10 months ago (2 children)

My parents were killed by a poorly-cropped screenshot and I WILL NOT CALM DOWN!
