I’ve just looked at Skitch after someone used it to share a
screenshot with me, and thoughts floated across my head about how I
might use that too. Then I thought, now, hang on a second, I already
have a website to publish images on, but I have to save them, then scp
them up, and so on, and that’s fiddly and annoying. Then I thought,
this could be easier. So, Places > Connect to Server, and fill in
SSH details for kryogenix.org, with the folder being my “random” folder
on the website, and tick “add bookmark” with the bookmark name being
“kryogenix random folder”. Now, to take a screenshot and publish it, I
just hit Print Screen
(which takes a screenshot and offers to save
it), say “Save”, and pick “kryogenix random folder” from the drop-down
list of where to save it to. Publishing screenshots with three clicks.
That’ll do nicely. (Skitch does other stuff, as I understand it, like
cropping images and adding annotations. It would be cool if the Gnome
screenshot tool allowed these things too, but I can live without them.)
Publishing screenshots and files quickly
