- tray icon enabled native app for all big three
Nothing would make this stick faster than just having to press a key combo (like we already do in Windows with alt+prtscr) and have it pop an image link in front of me to paste/use wherever I want.
Have you thought about integrating with Sharex?
I don't have any immediate plan for integrating with Sharex but I am thinking about making a chrome extensions to make it easier to integrate into your workflow. So you can immediately open a new screenshot in Screely.
Will keep your suggestion in mind for future development!
Looks useful, congrats on the launch!. One thing, since the page says you're not uploading images to your server(s) - you might want to rename the "Upload the screenshot" button to something that reflects that. Good luck!
Maybe they mean they are not storing it permanently on disk. The upload is still happening, right? Or is it all being done in browser with JavaScript?
Windows does that natively, with Alt+PrintScreen. Some Linux distros also support that out of the box.
Apologies for the pedantry in advance, but Linux distros probably don't support that. It's the desktop manager / window manager doing that for you.
Suggestion: an effect like the one Amazon uses on their blog/docs about AWS. I'm on mobile now, but if you don't know what I'm talking about I'll find an example.
Do you mean something like this? https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aws-iot-1-click-use-simple-... The solid black border around the image?

How are they not uploading the image? Maybe they mean they are not storing it permanently on disk. The upload is still happening, right? Or is it all being done in browser with JavaScript?
I'm using client-side JS to create the image on a HTML canvas element and turning that DOM element into an image. Server-side rendering would be easier since you don't have to deal with browser compatibility issues but I think there are enough websites collecting whatever data they can from you. No need for more ;)
On mac: + + then pressing will allow you to select a window for screenshot which includes the window border, title, and transparent shadow.
Alt+PrintScrn on Windows, takes the focused window and no extra shadows.
At those "done feature list" you should add: - tray icon enabled native app for all big three Nothing would make this stick faster than just having to press a key combo (like we already do in Windows with alt+prtscr) and have it pop an image link in front of me to paste/use wherever I want.
I have 100's of small tools a bit like Screenly et al., that I have written over the years for Windows, but because I wont open source them, people just wont download them, so there's no point releasing.
We're in a really sad place now software-wise, where all the little developers (like me) can no longer release freeware or shareware without someone accusing it of being riddled with malware.
The gimmicks blow up the file size (especially when/if they add an alpha channel only for the shadow) and don't look better in every scenario.
I think such decoration should be applied when neccessary, for instance with CSS within a website.
