Upload an image to your website with a plugin or something in photoshop? I'm tired of uploading using CuteFTP and the likes.

If you have say, a Deviantart account you can upload via a web browser...

If you constructed your website with Macromedia Dreamweaver you can use its in-built ftp uploader that you save the details and password once and just modify your page and click 'publish to web' and it does it for you. So you could set up a simple page, drop in your image and click 'publish to web' and your set!

Hope that helps.

You can FTP using Internet Explorer, just type this in to your address bar:

ftp://username:password@ftpaddress/

Then you can drag and drop files in, create folders or delete files.

You can also use the DOS prompt. Open a command line window, navigate to the directory where your files are kept (ie cd myfiles\uploads) the type ftp. An FTP> prompt appears, type open ftp address (the actual address, like ftp.btinternet.com), you will then be prompted for a user name and password. To upload a file type "put filename" and to download a file the command is "get filename".

You need to know Unix commands to file manage via the command prompt, so here are the essential ones:

to create a new folder in the remote directory: mkdir filename

to remove a folder: rmdir filename

to delete a file: rm filename

to navigate folders: cd /folder name

to go back one folder: cd ..

It's easier than it looks and saves you having to buy any FTP software

Hmm. thanks for the info, but I have already made a little app (coded in Delph) that connects, sends image and give you the three codes for copying to the clipboard ([img], [url] and a normal hyperlink).

Maybe I'll place a drop target in the app so i can drop an image on it and it will connect, upload , copy [img] tag to clipboard and opens http://forums.sijun.com. It would be easy IMO.

Too bad the Photoshop SDK isn't available for public anymore (u suck Adobe ) - so I can't create a plugin - but it would be great if I could 'connect' my app more to Photoshop. If you could just make a little plugin that executed my app...
