Screenshotr for Flickr

Nb: this text hasn't been proofreaded, so it's a kind of Ruglish.

Screenshotr - What is, Why, How and What for?

I make screenshots often, for the blog, to show something to my friends, or as an evidence of some stuff that may disappear, as I suppose, quickly from the original location. I am a big fan of Flickr also.

But I found it's hard to upload every image to Flickr using the web form. So, as a somehow java programmer, I had written a tiny tool which makes and uploads a screenshot in two clicks — Screenshotr (not so original name, yeah).

Features

  • Flickr authorization;
  • PrintScreen function;
  • Paste from the Windows Clipboard function;
  • Upload function (wich opens a result Flickr page with the screenshot also);
  • Crop and Pixelate functions (very limited implementation).

Known issues (known bug is not a bug, it's a feature!)

  • Uploaded screenshots has "screenshotr" tag and permission is "Private".

Download and Launch

Screenshotr is a Java Webstart application signed with my Thawte digital certificate.

Launch with Java Webstart

Recommended for Windows and Mac!

The "Launch" button will automatically install Java and Java Webstart if necessary. Once Java has been installed, this button launches Screenshotr much more quickly. ( )
