Automatic Upload and Copy
I would love the ability to automatically upload to a service after the GIF is captured and copy the URL to the clipboard. Would also be great if it did the transformation to a direct link for Dropbox (substituting www.dropbox fordl.dropboxusercontent).
Jeff has this feature and it's fantastic. I'm using an Alfred Workflow to simulate this right now.
Automatic uploading is already planned. Automatic copying is questionable – on less performant hardware processing and saving will take time, which would be more considerable for larger gifs, meaning that it will be saved after 30 / 60 / … seconds. The way copying works now makes this even more questionable. We can obviously add this feature, I'm only concerned about confusing less experienced users. Direct link substitution sounds like a good idea!
I'd also like to see this feature, but make it purely optional. This should avoid confusion to inexperienced users.
I also would like to see direct links to the Dropbox. Now I use Automator, which changes the links in the clipboard. /www.dropbox > /dl.dropboxusercontent and remove ?dl=0
It seems that ShareX automatically makes direct links to the recorded GIF.
