 If you are going to crop, or otherwise post process the screen shot,
 using GIMP, just use GIMP to take the region / screen shot.  Saves a

Sorry, having to open gimp to take a screenshot before uploading it is 
just not worth it, at all.

I ended up with this shell script, and it works fairly well;
https://github.com/jomo/imgur-screenshot

I do however get this error whenever I use it;
http://i.imgur.com/mGndeQj.png

Can that error be removed through some action of mine,
or is it just a plain old bug?

Morten,

I don't use imgur personally, but I use blender a lot, and paste there
whenever I need help on the irc channel, and the preferred pasting site
is: http://www.pasteall.org/ (if you were so inclined to add that
destination :)


I will say your bash coding style is very refreshing. I'm a bit of a
bash hacker myself, and I abhor the overuse of capitals in so much
bash. since you use git, you might find this theme-able git dashboard
prompt useful: https://github.com/christopher-barry/bash-color-tools

accepting new prompt themes if you're so inclined... :)

   Once I tried sharing, it require a zimagez username and password,

   After I caved in and made a zimagez account, it turns out that
   website is a bit crap. More than a little.
   
   So, I was hoping someone knew of a way to get something elegant

click window menu (the icon on top-left of titlebar or alt+right mouse on any
window) and .. take shot - it's part of the shot module features.

You can use imagemagick and do 'import filename.jpg' and drag the region.
There used to be a way with emprint in e to do this, but that's gone afaik.
