Show Off Your Monster Hotbar in Screenshots

The whole point of this collection is a fresh, monster-inspired look for your toolbar. Here's how to capture it clearly so you can compare designs or share your setup.

Set up a clean shot

1. Make sure the pack is enabled under Options > Resource Packs.... Place it above any other GUI-changing packs so its hotbar is the one displayed.

2. Fill your hotbar with recognizable items so the slot design stands out against something familiar.

3. Stand somewhere with a plain or contrasting background, such as open sky, a flat field or a dark cave wall. This makes the toolbar easy to see.

4. Open Options > Video Settings and adjust GUI Scale. A larger scale makes the hotbar design bigger and more detailed in the image.

Take the screenshot

1. Don't press F1. That hides the entire HUD, including the hotbar you want to capture.

2. Press F2 to take a screenshot.

3. A message in chat confirms the save. Your screenshots go to the screenshots folder next to your resourcepacks folder.

4. To compare the vanilla toolbar with the monster version, take one shot with the pack on. Then disable it in the Resource Packs menu and take a second shot from the same spot.

Since the pack is purely cosmetic, you can toggle it on and off as often as you like without affecting your world.
