Epic Free Screenshot Program For Windows
I've been finding myself having to upload images more and more lately, and it's incredibly inconvenient to ALT + PRINTSCREEN, open up an image editor, paste, save, open FileZilla, upload, copy the link, and paste.
I know plenty of people use tinygrab, but the upload limit on that scares me away. And I just found this other software that's exactly what I need.
It's called ShareX, and it's open source.
Everything is assignable to a hotkey (capture current window, capture current monitor, capture selection, capture all monitors, etc...). It captures transparent windows as well:
In addition to hot keys, it adds an item to the context menu for any file to let you upload it:
As far as the actual destinations... it supports uploading to FTP, Dropbox, Google Drive, Imgur, TinyPic and a whole bunch more. It's exactly what I needed, and I thought I'd share it with you guys.
Here's a full list of it's features.

That's actually pretty cool! I primarily use Postimage which I really like, so I'll probably stick with that for awhile (since I rarely upload more than one Atmo screenshot at a time), but I'll definitely check this out if I find myself uploading a ton of screenshots at once.
I need a shot again, that sweet adrenaline.
