ShareX is a free and open source program that lets you to capture full screen or partial screenshots (which can be exported into various image formats), such as rectangle capture and window capture. It can also record animated GIF files and video using FFmpeg.

An included image editor lets users annotate captured screenshots, or modify it with borders, image effects, watermarks, etc. It's also possible to use the editor to draw on top of the windows or desktop before taking the screenshot.

After capture, a screenshot can be automatically exported as an image file, email attachment, exported to a printer, to the clipboard, or uploaded to a remote host such as many popular image hosting services or via FTP. If the image is uploaded to a remote host, the URL generated by it can be copied to the clipboard.
Dragging other file types into the program will upload them to a destination based on type, such as a text file being saved to Pastebin and a ZIP file saved to Dropbox.

There are a variety of desktop image capabilities including screen color picker and selector, checksum tool (hash check), on-screen ruler, image combiner, thumbnails for images and video, and many more.
The program also includes some basic automation. For example, taking a screenshot, adding a border and watermark, and then saving to a specific folder.
