Upload Pictures to Flickr Directly from Firefox

Whenever I had asked about whether there was any way to upload pictures to my Flickr account from the same browser. The answer is yes, at least from Mozilla Firefox thanks to an extension (blessed extensions) whose name could not be more descriptive, for Flickr Uploadr.


This extension is different from Fotofox, which already talk around here, because while we can raise this with the pictures we are seeing in our browser can do so with Fotofox with which we are seeing as we have in our computer. Although by now Fotofox not work with Mozilla Firefox 3.


Once the install, simply click the right button over an image and give it the option to upload flickr. We will open a small window in which we ask whether we are sure what we are doing, user information with which we identified in Flickr and may confirm or cancel the shipment.





When we confirm the dispatch of a few seconds and then finally informed us that everything has ido well. Now we will simply our Flickr account and found that it has worked. As image information we enter the URL which was located in the original image.


It seems to me an extension quite interesting and useful, although I believe that much still needs to improve because their options are directly invalid. If between now and a future you introduce the possibility of changing options in the picture as privacy, if we want to add a set and others believe that an extension is necessary and that exceed by far Fotofox.
