NANY 2013 Entry Information
DescriptionSimple commandline application that uploads a single image to
Imgur and automatically puts the URL on the clipboard. This application was designed as a
Screenshot Captor tool and, to that end, includes a .sctool file for easy integration within
Screenshot Captor. However, that's not a requirement and this application can easily be integrated into your own scripts and such.
You
must have your own Imgur Anonymous API key for this application to work. On its first run, sImgurUploader will ask you to enter your API key. Without one, the application will exit. If you do not have an Imgur Anonymous API key, you can get one here:

Screenshots
UsageInstallationIf you intend on using this as a Screenshot Captor tool, download the zip file and extract its contents into your
Screenshot Captor\Tools folder. Run the sImgurUploader.exe file manually and it will ask for your API key. You then need to restart Screenshot Captor or go to
Tools > Configure External Tools and then just close the Config dialog. If you intend to use this application stand-alone, extract the contents to whatever folder you'd like and invoke the application from there.
Using the ApplicationAssuming you have it installed properly, within Screenshot Captor, simply use the Tools menu. Otherwise the usage is simple:
c:\path\to\sImgurUploader.exe "<path to image file>"Alternately, you can drop an image file onto the executable. You can reference the sImgurUploader.log file for deletion links, etc.
UninstallationDelete the folder you installed it to. For Windows XP, the sImgurUploader.ini and sImgurUploader.log file are saved in the install folder. For Windows Vista and later, those files are saved in your %APPDATA%\Skwire Empire\sImgurUploader folder. The application doesn't write any of its settings to the registry.
