Ignore me. PEBKAC.

#13Earlier quoted context omitted.
Oops, I tested on Win+Mac. Guess I'll be downloading linux then.
i think linux doesnt save the image in the clipboard after you pushed the button, in ubuntu however a dialog is displayed after pushing the button that allow you to copy the screenshot to the clipboard, but this tool is specially designed for this purpose. AFAIK this wont work out of the box in linux :(
Well I guess that's expected behavior. So you may need to explicitly state that the feature works if you save an image on your clipboard -- not just pressing printscreen ;-)
nice work for a weekend app!

#14This is a great little MVP, nice work. very useful
Re: Show HN: My embarrassingly simple printscreen weekend webapp
#15Nice, Can you add a progress bar for larger uploads?
I was halfway creating a progress bar when I thought the design sucked so I kept it simple, but yes coming weekend a progress bar will be made.

#16I love it. Fantastic for multiple reasons. 1) I can never remember the "intuitive" keyboard combinations to do this on my mac, but I can remember "easyprintscreen" 2) Useful. I can capture my screen, draw on it, highlight issues or bugs or whatnot, and share it. 3) I know you'll keep it running because it has an obvious, lucrative business model (assuming you monitor what screens people capture for the occasional use…
Haha, there's no monitoring setup, infact there's no backend at all :)

#17It supports multiple monitors.
Windows 7 Pro 64-bit + Firefox 25.0.

#18On mac, Cmd+Ctrl+Shift+4 will work with this for regions. If you hit space before selecting anything, you can select by window.
This is nice, as I rarely want to capture my whole screen.

#19Very cool. It frustrates me to no end when users send a docx file containing screenshots.
As a precaution, I minimized everything. :)

#20I believe this tool has legs and is a bigger deal than you think.
