 We’ve been working on this windows appliaction for 1 month and now please welcome Pict Uploader!

This tiny and simple windows application allows you to upload, manage and share your images and screenshots with one click. Pict Uploader is a perfect tool for webmasters, programmers, designers and web surfers. More information can be found here.

This is our “public beta” version, so if you find any bugs, please report them.

We are working really very hard to make Pict.Com the best image hosting service. You guys have been submitting some feature requests through our contact form and I would like to make small announcement about what are we about to launch:

• Registration. Free registration of course
• Albums. Pict users will be able to create albums to organize images.
• Firefox plugin update. Thanks for reporting some bugs, we will fix them soon.
• Pict Uploader. Our first Windows application will be release in two weeks. This uploader really kicks ass!
• Bug fixing. Thanks for reporting them, we appreciate this.

Cool, isn’t it?

We have launched our first Pict tool - Firefox add-on (plugin). This add-on allows you to:

• Capture screenshots with one click and automatically upload them to Pict.Com
• Upload any image you see online with one click

More features can be found here.

Pict.Com offers automatic image resizing. Whenever you upload an image Pict automatically creates copies with different sizes. To share resized image you need to switch to Advanced mode:

1. Move your mouse over the image you would like to share and click “Share it”
2. Click “Switch to advanced mode” link at the bottom of “Share it” dialog box

Now you can select different sizes and get you linking codes to share the image. Just click on the “Mini size”, “Medium size”, “Large size” or “Original size” tabs and select avaliable linking codes.

To return to simple sharing mode, click “Switch to simple mode” link.

Q: How to delete a single image?

A: Move your mouse over the image you would like to delete and click “X” button at the top right corner of the image.

Q: How to delete all images in album?

A: Simply click  “Delete all images” button.

Q: How to upload a picture from web?

A: This is really very easy:

1. Click the “Upload image from URL” button
2. Insert a link to the picture you would like to upload
3. Click Upload button

Btw, if want to request a new feature, please contact us and we will be happy to implement something new to Pict.

Guys, Pict is a “one-click” image hosting. This means there is no registration required to upload and share your images. However this means that you should take care of saving your Pict “workspace“. If you clean your browser cookies or you access Pict from another computer, you will not find images you uploaded on your Pict workspace (unless you register). In order to back up your workspace you should use “Save to email” feature.

Just click on the “Save to email” button, enter you email address and click Send.

Thats all! You’ll receive an email with the link to your personal workspace.

* Please note, that ALL uploaded images will ALWAYS be safe. However you might loose a link to your album/images unless you back up using “Save to email” feature or register (registration will be avaliable soon).

This is a new feature, guys!

If you would like to share entire album with all your images you can pass the “Share this album” URL (at the bottom of your album) to your friends, email it, or post on a website.

If you have noticed any bugs/errors please report them to us. We are doing our best to make Pict the best image hosting service.

Thanks.
