ImageDropR AIR + flickr Application

I would like to introduce a little project that I have been working on to make it a little easier to get files up to various image sharing sites. ImageDropR is a Flex based AIR application that takes advantages of some of the new interactions with the desktop that are available within AIR. Upon launching the application you will see that the application consists mainly of a large area where images can be dragged or pasted in to.
Once you have brought a few images into Image Drop you will notice that a thumbnail is created for each. Rolling over the thumbnail will give you the option to remove the image from the upload queue.
Although the plans are to support many image sharing sites, currently the alpha only supports flickr. On your 1st upload attempt you will need to authorize the application to interact with your flickr account.
Once you are verified, you may upload your files to flickr. You will notice that each file shows its own progress as well as overall progress for the upload batch.
There are a few additional buttons at the top of the main application window allowing you to open the help, settings, and log windows. The log window is pictured below and this will show the applications upload activity. There are also buttons for sending feedback and checking for application updates.
Want to be a beta tester? Please leave a comment below and I will be sure to get you access next week.

I had this idea when AIR first came out, and was too lazy to go and build the app.
It’s good to know someone put it out though haha. I’d love to help in anyway I can!

I have a few admin panels I need to add this type of thing to and had been justifying my laziness waiting until AIR went final. Add me to the list Rich if there are any slots left.

The Internet is inAir Max a tizzy over an interview in which teen dream Justin Bieber appears to not be familiar with the word “German.” In the interview, a talk show host from New Zealand asks the 16-year-old a few true-or-false questions, including the query “True or false: Air Max 90 ‘Bieber’ is German for basketball.” Bieber gets confused over the word “German,” and the interviewer repeats it. After this back-and-forth, Bieber says he doesn’t know what the TV host means, and finally gives up on the question, proclaiming: “We don’t say that in America.”It seems obvious that Bieber was simply perplexed byAir Max 95 the interviewer’s thick Kiwi accent (which the host himself points out). Or perhaps he was just annoyed at being asked an inane question.

Part of the fun of being a sneakerhead is trying to make sense of buying rare kicks from international hookups, and the occasionally inevitable loss in translation. That’s the case with this new nike air max, which we previewed in April as debuting a new shade from Nike called ‘Menthol’. Turns out, this was likely taken from ‘Menth’, which is how the Swoosh codes ‘Cool Mint’ for French customers. So Cool Mint is here to stay, and performs a fine supporting role opposite a huge splash of Wicked Purple. Possibly the ‘coolest’ looking shoe you’ll see all summer, these new AM1s for ladies just dropped at nike air 2010
