A very useful and easy-to-use extension. One suggestion for improvement: Include the orientation and mirroring setting when creating a screenshot. Now these settings are ignored. Same goes btw for GIF Maker.

Default config is terrible with an annoyin shutter effect and a distracting flash. Configuring the downloads folder doesn't actually work, only allows the creation of subfolders. JUST PUT THE FUCKING FILES IN THE DOWNLOADS FOLDER.
