⚠ this extension is deprecated! check out the new fully featured extension over at Scratch Addons. in Scratch Addons, it has been renamed to "Forum Image Uploader"
this repository remains as an archive, and to report bugs with the new version of the addon in Scratch Addons
a chrome(ium) extension which allows image uploading directly through scratch
get it from the chrome webstore or install it using chrome's built in development mode for extensions
while not officially supported (there might be random issues), you can also use it as a userscript and it should work fine. until a better solution for firefox support is done, this is the only way to use it on firefox.

switch to using assets instead of project thumbnails (needs discussion)
add a menu for changing an image after it's been done. (needs design)
add user feedback when using drag and drop
i dont know if this is possible or not, but perhaps when adding the file upload button in, it could be done in a way that it looks like it all loads at the same time?
