ShareX link in Options > Tools is defunct
« on: June 25, 2015, 08:57 PM »
If you go to Preferences > Tools > Online Uploading
and click the Visit ShareX Site to Download button
You go to a page pointing you to another page.

In other words, we need to update the link from
http://code.google.com/hosting/moved?project=sharex
to
https://getsharex.com/

Thanks, I will fix.
It's useful to note however, that SC now has a very good built-in upload to a free image hosting service, so there is little reason to need to use ShareX with it anymore.

Mouser - I was looking, but I don't see imgur in the Service Options - only ImageShack, which isn't free anymore - that's what made me look at shareX.

ImageShack should work fine with Screenshot Captor, right out of the box.  No need to register, put any username, password, or pay anything.

Well, I *was* using ImageShack before but then they changed some of their rules and since I hadn't paid, my trial expired.  Now I can't upload anything anymore.

How can I add imgur?
I don't see any way to get that into the built-in settings...

You can't add imgur to SC built-in tool yet, but i'll look into adding it.
But you should be able to use ImageShack if you just clear any values in the Service Options tab of the SC Uploader.
