Extension summary

Right-click uploading of images and screenshots to imgur, anonymously or to your imgur account.

This is intended as a less feature-rich replacement for William Parry's original imgur Chrome extension which he has removed from the web store (I believe it is back and maintained as the Metronomik extension), and makes use of his icons.

Version 2.4.1: Fix bug in oauth flow that made some people unable to authenticate with imgur.

Version 2.4: Update to Manifest V3. Fix capture area bug when the browser's default zoom level was not 1.0, caused by incorrectly applying a zoom correction factor when the browser had already applied that correction for us.

Version 2.3.1: Fix bug caused by improper use of a browser API, which are more strict nowadays.

Version 2.3: Relaxed permission requirements as made possible by updates to Chrome's extension API (or, possibly, just their documentation).

Version 2.2: Inverted the selection rectangle. This won't ever cause the selection rectangle to be in the captured image, which affected some users. Also, uploading images should work with more kinds of images now, including data urls and SVGs.

Works perfect! No more saving and uploading. Thank.god If anyone has an issue like I did where it'll just stop uploading suddenly, log out of your account and then log back in. That fixed the issue for me.
