The user interface for LightShot is fairly simple and straightforward.

The online editor included with LightShot can modify the size of your screenshot, apply several different effects and save them as either PNG, JPG or BMP files.

When you are finished, you can save the screenshot to your local hard drive or upload it to the LightShot server to share it with others. You can then use the annotation tools to add lines, arrows, text, and other markings to the screenshot as desired. To use LightShot, you simply open the application and select the area of the screen that you want to capture. Also included is an online photo manipulation tool. The program's main enhancement over the built-in Windows tool is the fact that it can capture designated areas of the screen without having to open it up in an image editor to perform cropping. LightShot is an easy PRINT SCREEN replacement tool for Windows, or in other words a screen capture utility with several enhancements.
