build a chrome extension in order to upload images (from clipboard)
- by dayscott
I wanted to write a simple chrome extension in order to substitute the following sequence of steps which i have to do very often for university:
make screenshot of something
edit screenshot in Paint
save unnamend.png to harddrive
upload unnamed.png to imageshack.us/pic-upload.de or any
other website
share link of image with others.
I don't care which image upload service to use, i just want automize this use-case in order to save time (I already red and did a getting-started chrome extension and checked out their API, but that's it, this page: http://farter.users.sourceforge.net/blog/2010/11/20/accessing-operating-system-clipboard-in-chromium-chrome-extensions/ seemed useful, but i couldn't make it overwrite my systems clipboard - moreover i can't find a tutorial which helps me further).
