Automator workflow for quick and easy screenshot sharing via Dropbox
I created a simple Automator workflow to quickly share screenshots via Dropbox. Here’s what it does:
- Detect when a new screenshot is added to the Desktop
- Move the image to
~/Dropbox/Public/Screenshots/ - Copy its public link to the Clipboard
Currently I use this mostly for adding sceenshots to GitHub Pull Requests and Issues.
If you think this is useful for you, too, head over to the Goodies section for the download and installation- and modification-instructions.
