I know what you mean, but why don't use a tool when it is not forbidden via AGB/TOS? at last it's the user, who is responsible for complying with the AGB/TOS

thus the red text, before you upload (By pressing Go! you agree to the selected hoster's AGB/TOS!) and yeah, breaking changes are always a risk

yeah I could change that possibly, but I wanted to have the auto-flatten thing as a feature, you know the other reflection thing could be resolved with manually inspecting the FileType plugins folder, I think to ImageShack: I must admit that I didn't search for an API there, it was rather easy to implement using POST ^^

yeah I know the rules, that's why I put the text in the first line there, for example. The upload is using normal HTTP POST, the only API (of the current implemented hosters) I found was the PhotoBucket one, and it rather sucked (API key etc)

I'm using reflection on the PaintDotNet.exe for pulling the active document and such. The main reason to support FileType plugins was optipng

just Reflection to get some information/functionality not included in the Paint.NET API (but would be nice to have there)

Edit by Rick: NO. first: this one uses System.Reflection to make some things possible, yeah, I know.. because of this I don't include a direct download link here; it's posted mainly for educational purposes atm. maybe some dev finds some code bits interesting This plugin let's you upload your current image to a imagehoster, without saving it first. Here's a quick feature overview: [*:ijkes3lf]you can choose the filetype, this includes FileType plugins and settings for the selected filetype [*:ijkes3lf]select from a bunch of hoster (among others: imageshack, [beta] deviantart, [beta] photobucket) [*:ijkes3lf]set hoster specific settings (like remove the bar on thumbnails) [*:ijkes3lf]displays all links and codes you get from the hoster for your image Check this blog entry for more details, source code and screenshots! again: It's not intended for use in productional environments, it's beta, use at your own risk. Hopefully there will be some constructive replies. As "this is a forum for discussion about plugin development" maybe someone knows, how to avoid the reflective stuff. If you do, tell me. (So one day this plugin could comply with "the rules" *dream*) Some updates to the Paint.NET (plugin) API would be nice, too (get current document(s), filetypes etc) hf
