Suggestion - integrate with https://www.inkfilepicker.com/ so that users can choose images from various sources (picasa, flickr etc) instead of having to upload them only from their local folders?
Snapnote.io – A tool for annotating and sharing images

#22First, very nice app.
Second, stuff you probably know that confuses me.
On Chrome, I can drop (multiple) imgur urls from another Chrome tab, and they are all placed on the canvas.
On Firefox, I get the Upload prompt when I drag the image (an image hosted on imgur in a chrome tab) onto Firefox, but when I drop it, nothing happens.
On IE 10, same as Firefox, but not even the Upload prompt.
Also, what am I missing? I fail to see how to get the image out of snapnote.io. I don't see a download or upload or url...? Nor do I see a link to this desktop app.

#23Yep, it works: http://snapnote.io/0shC4h
Very cool little tool.

#24Nicely done. Upload progress bar please? Also just one more feature: text size.

#25Similar to http://www.marco.org/bugshot, nice done.

#26Nice and easy to use.
It would be even better with some Unicode input possibilities.

#27The desktop app is great. I was up and running on my mac in photoshop => email workflow I've been rolling with. While I am in favor of keeping things dead simple, is 6 character URLs too few? Could someone guess confidential work-related screenshots based on that size? Also is hot-linking/embedding directly to the final image allowed or discouraged?
That you're asking about keeping it unguessable makes me think that it feels like too few. Its actually only 5 bytes of random (the first character is always zero). 2^40 is a pretty large number and I don't expect to get high coverage over that space any time soon. That being said, perception is important, so I should probably up it. As for hot-linking; I have no business plan and just wanted to make something useful…
I'd just put up a nice, flat lock somewhere when uploading. If it's locked, pop up a text box where the user can enter a password. If it's open, just do what you do right now.
I personally think a freemium kind of model will work best for a service like this. Allow locking only for logged in users, and give each person 30 locks for free monthly (1 per day on average). For additional locks, either charge a small fee out of the user account (something under a dollar), or charge a given amount monthly for flatrate locks. You should allow people to deposit money into their user account in order to pay for these things. They'll most likely consider it playmoney, and that lowers inhibitions when it comes to buying premium features.

And line thickness. On a small image, those arrows block everything.

#29This is awesome.

#30very nice - now that sketch has been completely ruined as an app by being turned into a platform/feature/tie in, I've been looking for an easy way to annotate and share images. One suggestion for workflow purposes - how about allowing clipboard paste for the image? It's easier to screenshot to clipboard and drop directly to annotation edit - stupid autocorrect, meant to say skitch
