Signed Paintings Mod [2025 Update] – Display Internet Images as Vanilla-Style Paintings in Minecraft

The Signed Paintings Mod by Nettakrim transforms the way you can personalize your Minecraft world.

Anyone with the mod installed will be able to see your creations.

This mod is available for Fabric and supports Minecraft 1.20.1 to 1.21.5.
