Thanks for this great "how to" :) I used this script to upload screenshot automatically. I am using Hazel to do all the moving part and made this simple rule (with the help from this article and the Save to Dropbox script) http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/1385634/Screen shot 2009-10-26 at 0.16.29.png . Now when I make a screenshot I got it pasted in my clipboard immediately :) (I was using Skitch before but it was too many clicks for me and now I am waiting for my CloudApp invitation) Hi!

That happens because when you hide the tab bar at the bottom of the page, the browser tries to open attachements below it. And it seems there no solution to that.. besides no attachments at all XD @Lorenzo, Yeah, that's kinda annoying.
