Tired of the overly pixelated, limited amount of paintings without a proper selection GUI?
Immersive Paintings allows users to create their own, Minecraft-stylized paintings via drag and drop, screenshots,
or by providing a URL.
No resource pack required, Multiplayer friendly and easy to use.
The mod offers a simple yet powerful GUI to select your paintings, those from fellow players or those provided via
optional datapacks. Default datapack available for a quick start!
The creation menu allows you to quickly pixelate your images and apply post-effects and dithering to make them look
like they fit into Minecraft, without much fiddling around.
But what's a fancy painting without a fancy frame? Select from different styles and a lot of materials to put your
artwork into a better focus.
Using smart level of details, caching and lazy streaming of data the performance impact is not noticeable.

Available with glowing paint as well!
Your image has transparency? No problem, use a graffiti and spray it on every wall!
And here is the crafting recipe.
Joy of Painting compatible!
Just slap a canvas on a painting to showcase!
Immersive Paintings has to transfer and store images, on a server they may get quite a lot. If your server suffers
from low bandwidth, or storage space, take a look at the
config file.
It allows a few limitations for users and bandwidth throttling to adjust to your need.
Optionally, share packs of paintings using
datapacks.
