Extension summary

For artists who wish to crosspost their visual art from other art sites to the art site Weasyl, Waxpost provides a simple button to create a new submission from an existing submission.

Currently supported are the art sites deviantArt, Inkbunny, SoFurry, and FurAffinity, as well as the image sharing site imgur.

Waxpost will, when viewing a submission on one of the aforementioned sites, add a Weasyl beret icon to the URL bar. Clicking this icon will open up the "new visual submission" page on Weasyl, prepopulated with as much information as Waxpost can gather.

Note: imgur support requires viewing the image itself instead of a gallery page. The URL must start with http://i.imgur.com/ or https://i.imgur.com/.

At the moment, only visual submissions are supported. Submitting any other type will result in undefined behavior.

Tremendously helpful for keeping my Weasyl gallery updated when I post to FA. Saves time, hassle, and a lot of copying/pasting/reformatting. It only makes me wish similar systems existed for the other gallery sites I use too!

Very good! I finished to transfer my stuff today. I just wish it could transfer my submissions all in a time. Except for that, the extension is almost perfect! Thank you very much.
