What's the shortest way to post a cropped screenshot on the web?
- by Borek
If I want to send someone a piece of my screen this is what I currently do:
PrtScr or Alt+PrtScr
Open Paint.NET
Paste the screen shot
Make a selection
Crop image to selection
Save image to some location - and remember it!
Go to some image hosting site (there are plenty of them in the days of Twitter)
Click their "Browse" button
Browse for the image if I happened to remember the location where I stored it :)
Upload the image and obtain the link which I can share
This is simply too many steps. I don't usually mind doing steps 1 to 5 but especially steps 6 and 9 are annoying.
Jing is pretty close to what I'm looking for but I find their horrible URLs unbearable. If there was something with similar functionality but better or pluggable hosting, that would be great.
