Ybex Clipboard

Once installed and launched, the application goes directly to the system tray, from where it can easily be accessed. However, there’s also the possibility to bring up a related context menu by pressing a specific set of keys, which can easily be modified from the settings menu.

Before you get to enjoy all the application has to offer, you’re asked to create an online account to the related service, so that sharing capabilities can be enabled. Luckily, this process is the first that greets you when you launch the application.

Ybex Clipboard isn’t your common clipboard extender, and it doesn’t let you store multiple entries, if that’s what you’re interested in. What it actually does is provide quick methods of taking screenshots, while automatically uploading it to the online service, and storing the link in your clipboard so it can then be shared with individuals of interest.

A few screenshot methods are put at your disposal. Apart from the default one that grabs the entire screen, there’s the possibility to have a shot taken of the active window, as well as a custom region, method which lets you use various drawing and text utilities to emphasize different elements or parts.

On an ending note, Ybex Clipboard might come with a confusing name, since the Windows clipboard is only used to store the screenshot link. However, it manages to live up to expectations by providing quick ways of taking screenshots of different types, and easily sharing them over the web.
