imgur Uploader
Description from store

Right-click uploading of images and screenshots to imgur, anonymously or to your imgur account.

This is intended as a less feature-rich replacement for William Parry's original imgur Chrome extension which he has removed from the web store (I believe it is back and maintained as the Metronomik extension), and makes use of his icons.

Version 2.4.1: Fix bug in oauth flow that made some people unable to authenticate with imgur.

Version 2.4: Update to Manifest V3. Fix capture area bug when the browser's
default zoom level was not 1.0, caused by incorrectly applying a zoom correction
factor when the browser had already applied that correction for us.

Version 2.3.1: Fix bug caused by improper use of a browser API, which are more strict nowadays.

Version 2.3: Relaxed permission requirements as made possible by updates to Chrome's extension API (or, possibly, just their documentation).

Version 2.2: Inverted the selection rectangle. This won't ever cause the selection rectangle to be in the captured image, which affected some users. Also, uploading images should work with more kinds of images now, including data urls and SVGs.

Version 2.1: I was lying in bed last night and it occurred to me I'd added support for higher dpis but not different zoom levels. This was fortunate as when I went to muck around with it I discovered I'd introduced a bug that affected many if not most users. You can take captures while zoomed in or out now.

Version 2.0: This update removes all 3rd party code and so the code for imgur Uploader is now in the public domain. Additionally:
- Rewrite of capture area to fix various bugs, work in more websites, and respect high dpi displays.
- Added requested features: not focusing tabs of uploaded images; copying to clipboard without opening images
- Uses https all of the time
- Opens album page when uploading into albums

Version 1.2: Added uploading directly into albums.

Doesn't work. Goes to IMGUR and a "Blocked" image appears on the upload screen.

Does no longer right work, -> "open the uploaded pic in a new tab instead on imgur" does not work. You always get the imgur page with the uploaded pic, and if you open that pic separate in a new tab and share that with others and you click on the link, then always the directly imgur page will opened with the pic and not the separate pic.

Why isn't capture area working? It's the only reason why I have this extension?

useful ,easy to use

Works perfect! No more saving and uploading. Thank.god If anyone has an issue like I did where it'll just stop uploading suddenly, log out of your account and then log back in. That fixed the issue for me.

This is a good extension. With Chrome moving to manifest v3 which will kill ad blocking I expect more people to start migrating to Firefox - is there any chance this could get ported to Firefox?

Any extension that does not want to Read and change my data on ALL WEBSITES is a good extension by my reckoning

I've been a huge silent fan of this extension for ages. It worked well with my need to organize my graphic materials. HOWEVER, as of yesterday the extension suddenly refused to show up when I right clicked to upload a file. Why!? Please fix this bug - that right click option was a necessary part of my online life.

Doesn't work with Facebook. I'm sure you can find a workaround to fix this issue.

Props to the developer for promptly and deftly fixing a problem with the zoom that I mentioned. Looking forward to the next version.

It would be great if not for the auto log out. |In every normal program a prompt would pop saying something like "You're not logged in. Log in in order to rehost". But no, not here. Thanks, I just lost a couple dozen important images.

This extension is one of my most-used. It does exactly what it says it does and saves me a ton of time. I only wish it was also available on Firefox. The solutions there aren't nearly so polished.

Even better than I was expecting, with different options available and even a screenshot snipper.

This was the best browser extension for uploading to imgur until imgur limited its access to the API. Now, when I try and use it 90% of the time it fails with the message: "Daily client requests exceeded". Good things never last. Oh well.

Currently does not work, when rehosting, it comes to a page saying you MUST sign in now, as the site 'May contain something adult or erotic", Used to be able to post anonymously but can't anymore. Please Fix.

Simple. Works as intended. EDIT: Often stops working so I have to reinstall Also a feature that allows you to put the url put on your clipboard (and maybe not open imgur) would be amazing

Works great! Only thing missing from the William Parry / Metronomik extension that was the inspiration for this one is 'capture page' -- currently this one only has 'capture area' with a selection tool (plus direct image rehosting of course).
