Snaggy needs to use a Java applet to read your clipboard. Haha, nope.

It's just Chuck Testa! (sorry, couldn't resist…)

Reddit is bleeding...

Better than Droplr and the rest with the annotation features, but just needs some minor UX work - cropping is confusing for instance. And just needs to be a tad faster :) Other than that, all of my designer friends will love it!

I greatly prefer Droplr's workflow -- just press Alt+Shift+4 and a screenshot is uploaded and the link is placed in your clipboard. If someone made that without Droplr's issues, I'd switch in an instant.

This used to only be supported by uploadscreenshot.com, then more and more sites started to support it and now that imgur.com supports it I've never needed anywhere else.

Reddit is bleeding...

if I wagered a guess, I'd say 90% (maybe higher...??) of HN users are relatively regular reddit users as well

This is good. I wish it had an easier way to get to the direct image link (Right now I have to click the link then right-click the image and then copy image URL).

Would you mind sharing what Droplr's issues are?

Very true. That's how I knew the meme. I saw it on reddit which I also frequent. However, that doesn't mean we should introduce them here. They don't add to Hacker News discussion.

GrabBox + Dropbox works good for me.

Just command+shift+4 and it transfers it to my public folder with a link in my clipboard.
