AFLAX

Thursday, August 25th, 2005

While investigating about competing online photo sharing and photo album services to snapmania (our company‘s online photo editing and sharing application), I discovered a nice way to upload pictures on Yahoo Photos. Using Mozilla Firefox, you can install a plug-in which allows you to drag picture files directly from the Finder to the website to [...]
