Send to ftp from context menu

Post by Beherith »

Does anyone know of a program for windows that allows sending files to an ftp server from windows explorer, that gives me back the link to the file in the clipboard when i upload it?

No but that would be really damn handy. I know smartftp will give you http links to your ftp files but it doesn't use the context menu...

I use webdrive which can map an ftp server to a local drive letter so you can just save stuff straight to ftp (is nice with pixlr, cause I can take a clipped screenshot in firefox, edit it and save it online without touching the local filesystem). OFC, you still have to go get the url for posted images, it just cuts out a different piece of the hassle.

just tried rightload and it's really good, it supports ftp sftp and http upload, just made a imagebin profile, the best thing is for images, it handles thumbnails (you can change the size etc) and then it upload the two pictures, and at the end you can copy the pict url in BB code with thumbnail linked to realsize pict ...

Thanks sat, just what I was looking for. But my google didnt hit that one. I tried several others before and after much googling. But they were all either flaky or just lack features.
