imgursniper's Introduction

⚠️ Deprecation notice ⚠️

ImgurSniper was a project I initially created as my first "real" C# project while still in school. I had lots of fun developing it, but obviously made some messes in the codebase such as in-efficiency, bugs, and inconsistent styling conventions. I learned a lot from this project, and want to thank everyone of you who downloaded it, starred it and created issues in here. I'm now archiving this repository, as I have no interest in maintaining the codebase, and honestly a full rewrite with my knowledge now would be a way better decision anyways. It still works on my machine but if it doesn't work on yours then I'm afraid I can't help you. Try ShareX. Check out my other repositories for some other possibly interesting projects.

PS: ImgurSniper is also in the 2020 GitHub Archive Program, pretty cool to think there's some floppy disk out there containing buggy C# code.

ImgurSniper

The faster screenshot tool

ImgurSniper is a small and lightweight tool that is designed to make sharing Images way easier and faster by instantly uploading them to imgur or copying to your clipboard!

Why choose ImgurSniper?

Compared to other Screenshot software, ImgurSniper is as fast as sharing Images can get. Also, ImgurSniper will upload directly to imgur, which gets a direct Image Link (Meaning the Link is Image only, so you can embed the Image, or share it with Software that can preview Image URLs, like Discord, ...)

How to use

Press Ctrl + Shift + X or PrintScreen (depending on your Preferences) to start ImgurSniper Snap Mode! Easily capture and share a moment by drawing a Rectangle with your Mouse to automatically upload it to Imgur! Optionally, press Space to switch Mode and paint on the Screen! You can now share the Link that has been copied to your Clipboard with everyone!

(To change the behavior of ImgurSniper, right-click the Icon in your Tray and click Settings)

(See more Info at ImgurSniper Settings -> Help)

imgursniper's Issues

Add option to disable sound.

Just installed and am happy to have found something this minimal. Would be nice if I could turn off the "pop" sound effect every time an image is captured.

add option to configure delay before capture images

this is an enhacement request.

it would be nice to set how many seconds to wait before capturing an image.
this is usefull when you have to capture some action activated by the mouse itself and you need time to prepare it.

test

FFmpeg link

The download url in your FFmpegManager program has broken again.
I think it would be better if you used a release build of FFmpeg instead of a nightly build.
(So like: https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win64/static/ffmpeg-4.2.2-win64-static.zip)

This is a great program by the way!

Advice of GPL v3 violation

Hi,

Whilst we all love OSS, I would like to raise a GPL violation. This project is currently under an MIT licence, and uses ShareX source code which is under GPL.

There is no evidence of crediting the use, and it is evident that the codebase is from ShareX.

The comparison provided below is from an older version of ShareX to demonstrate that the ShareX source code existed well before the ImgurSniper adoption of ShareX source code:

We have also noticed that a portion of codes have been used in AnimatedGif which is another one of your repos:

GPL cannot be sublicensed, and if reused, then the project that uses it needs to be GPL too.

Incorrect Positioning for Multiple Screen users

Incorrect window X, Y, Width and Height coordinates for users with multiple monitors and different Resolutions or different Scaling Factors (Windows Font Scaling/DPI, 100%, 125%, 150%, ....)
(See here)

Windows DPI Scaling

ImgurSniper will not work properly when there is a custom scaling setting set in Windows Settings, and/or you have multiple Monitors with different Scaling/DPI factors.
Screenshot

Image compression

Image compression for all Image formats (Now it's only JPEG with managed .NET Quality Level)

Imgur upload limit

Fix maximum Imgur upload size (10MB) by not using official (limited) Imgur API

Window Size bugged

Window sizes seem to be bugged, there is a maximum size when there is a custom DPI in windows changed.

I'm getting "Insufficient memory to continue the execution of the program" errors when trying to open the settings window.

Pressing the capture image hotkey multiple times or holding it down causes issues

The capture image hotkey can be held down which causes multiple overlays to occur, eventually making the screen completely black.

API Library

Hi @mrousavy -
We're interested in incorporating a "screenshot" capture feature into our app and we're willing to help fund the development of a library to do so.

May we borrow your source code?
Would you be willing to separate the Imgur portions of your code from the screen shotting portions to create a library we can consume?
Would you be willing to incorporate basic editing features (like lightshot) into the UI?
What would appropriate funding be to make the above happen?

Imgur uploading account is not correctly

Hi all,
I found some issues about uploading account of project and refresh token:

If we alway create new "ImgurClient" object with "ClientId" and "ClientSecret", we alway upload that image to application's account (see image: https://i.imgur.com/GuZ0wl4.png)
We alway call to "Login()" function on ImgurUploader class when rase upload action. This is not good solution for perfomence. I think we need check the "ExpiresIn" or "ExpiresAt" before refresh token.

Thanks!

Cant fully uninstall

sometimes ill open the screenshot window by accident. I uninstalled from windows settings

Crash after first launch

[Feature Request] Windows Ink Support & Ink quality

Please improve the inking support by implementing Windows Ink. This is how the app currently looks like vs windows Snip & Sketch

Comparison
Imgur Sniper

Snip & Sketch

If implementing windows ink would be too hard, an alternative feature could be to let the user paste from clipboard to the tray icon and return a direct imgur link to the pasted image.

Error after using the drawing tool

For some reason if I draw too much before taking a screenshot I get this error. If I press restart, it pops up again. I have to press "No" and open the tool again.
