Usually its path is: /usr/share/applications/postr.desktop There are several key/value pairs in the file. You need to check if there is a 'MimeType' key and the related values. In the latest version of ubuntu the values look like this: ------snip----- MimeType=image/bmp;image/gif;image/x-fits;image/pcx;image/x-portable-anymap;image/x-portable-bitmap;image/x-portable-graymap;image/x-portable-pixmap;image/x-sgi;image/x-tga;image/x-xbitmap;image/x-xwindowdump;image/tiff;image/jpeg;image/x-psd;image/png;image/x-icon;image/x-xpixmap;image/svg+xml; ------snip----- As you can see 'image/png' is listed here. If there is no such value you need to add it (and execute 'update-desktop-database' via terminal with root privileges afterwards). Shutter uses a gnome library to access those .desktop files and list all applications that are registered to a specific mime-type. There is no way to edit the list manually (usually you should not need it). The reason why I asked if you are using ubuntu or not: The postr package in older versions of ubuntu was broken (no 'MimeType' key provided in the .desktop file). Regards Mario @Doug Whitfield

The instructions for what I am asking about are emphatically not on this page. As I mentioned before, the instructions on this page are for sending pictures to postr, if it is on your list. These instructions are quite good for that! Below I have linked to a screenshot to prove postr does NOT show up in the list. You can see that I uploaded the picture using postr, so it is not a problem with postr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/dawhitfield/4409190745/ So, I will repeat my question for clarity.

I should set rectangular area once, set interval (for example 1-2 second), push button and create 10 screenshots into files named like file_1, file_2, ...

Lets make this clear because you don't seem to get it: follow the instructions, uploading to flickr works. These are complete instructions. You do not need to edit the list, because the list is auto-generated. That is why that part is missing. So, I do know what I'm talking about, and if it's not working for you in Fedora, then that's unfortunate, because the following instructions haven't been tested. I asked to confirm that you are using the instructions for any of the listed distros here, instead you ask how to edit the list. It's nice to be smart, but it's even nicer to help people trying to help you. I do know the answer and I do know what you’re asking… and I already answered.

Applications are all basically the same. I use both distros and I've never had a problem converting instructions except for very deep programs such as GNOME or X. Installation/version # is the only difference and I can handle that either place. I assure you that if someone gave Ubuntu instructions for adding things to send to, I could make it happen in Fedora. Probably some conf file. I'll post if I ever care to figure it out, which I probably won't. NOTE: This question has nothing to do with postr. If I wanted to add foo or bar or programX to that list, it would be the same question. um, why doesn’t someone post Ubuntu instructions and I’ll do it on Fedora?
