I'm a big fan of this plugin, so I'm gonna follow the development really closely. I thought I'd post another suggestion.

Could you make it so that the commands ("/xss....") don't show in the screenshots? I have to explain what they are and why I wrote that every time I send a screenshot :S

*edit* Btw, SS3 doesn't seem to save my screenshots in the specified folder... But since you're coding it from scratch, I guess that will be fixed. :)

I am pretty sure we can manage this, might be a bit more work but is worth it.

Ya I think that directory should be customizable so I will add it into the preferences.

RE: Screenshot Sender - Next Version, we need your input!
I noticed that when I use /xssfull with a time delay (in SS3), the chatwindow is disabled and I can't maximize/minimize the window. Kinda pointless to have a delay if I can't change it. For example, I wanted to send a screenshot of my desktop, and the window wouldn't let me minimize it.

After a while I found that WinKey+D was a workaround, but it still bugged me a little. Could you get around disabling the window? It also stops me from sending a screenshot of the Activities and Games menus.

Oh, but remember that if you don't disable the window, the user could close it before the timer runs out, and you'll have to find a way to deal with that :P

[edit]It happens with /xssactive too[/edit]

As you know with VB Coding if you use Form1.Show vbModal it locks the window behind it. Well unless you use the ShowWindow API to show the window it it locks the rest. This will be fixed in the new version as most things are done using the Windows API.

Ok, I replied to this last night, but it seems my post got lost somewhere.

What I said was that drawing tools would be the most useful thing that could be added to this plugin. I often take SS's of something I'm working on and send them to friends, and it would be really great if I could actually point things out to them on the screenshot itself.

This has been requested in the past, but I was surprised that I couldn't find it in here, (unless I'm blind of course).

We can consider adding the ability to crop. We had a feature where you could select an area of the image and it made the rest a specific greyscale but the code was very slow and we couldn't speed it up any.
