SPGrab lets you share screenshots effortlessly
It seems like applications for quickly sharing screenshots are all the rage these days; first we get Gyazo, then we get extra sharing options with Screenpresso, and now we get dead-simple sharing again with SPGrab.
SPGrab is slightly more powerful than Gyazo in that it lets you configure your own hotkeys and also select whether you want to capture the entire screen or just a section.
By default, it instantly uploads the images to its own FTP servers and copies the path to your clipboard. You can configure your own FTP server if that makes you feel more comfortable, though.
One thing that really bugs me about these two applications is that there is no way to remove an image from the server once it's up there, and there's no clear privacy policy. What if I just took a screenshot, and then I notice that it includes some sensitive information that I wish I had blurred out? I know it's my bad, but at least give me an option to remove it from the server somehow.
Still, if you're in a rush to share some images of your screen, both Gyazo and SPGrab are fairly painless, if minimalistic, solutions.

Looks good to me. It would be even better if they allowed you to place arrows / highlight parts of the screen shot prior to uploading (Gyazo doesn't allow this either).

fyi - We're working to implement a version of SPGrab that will keep the same minimalistic / simplicity as the current version (the reason we developed the app in the first place), while adding in some simple account functionality that will allow a web-based interface for managing stored photos.
The idea behind our app was to open up the free screenshot sharing via FTP, over paid solutions, as for people that want a secure, long term solution that is always going to be the best option.
Thanks for your interest in our product, and comments.

I use JetScreenshot, and I´m very pleased. Screenshot, watermarks and upload in only one step.
