I created a desktop client for users who want the convenience to
|
|
share (parts of) their desktop with just the press of a key.
|
|
<a target='_blank' href='http://pd.fornax96.me/u/pO-V-4'>You can
|
|
check out the client in action here</a>. The client will also zip
|
|
files for you automatically when you try to upload multiple files
|
|
at once, just to save you those valueable seconds!

<h2>Using PixelDrain</h2>
|
|
|
|
I bet you're very excited to start using it! You can download it
|
|
from here, but there are some important things you need to know
|
|
before you start using it:
|
|
<br/>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
PixelDrain requires a Java Runtime Environment of at least
|
|
version 1.8 to be installed. If you're using Ubuntu you can get it
|
|
<a href='http://www.webupd8.org/2012/09/install-oracle-java-8-in-ubuntu-via-ppa.html' target='_blank'>from here</a>.
|
|
If you're using somtehing else you can download it
|
|
<a href='http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre8-downloads-2133155.html' target='_blank'>from oracle</a>.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
You should know that this is a very early build of the client, any
|
|
bugs or issues you encounter should be reported to me, you can
|
|
reach me <a href='http://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=Fornax96' target="_blank">on reddit</a>.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The settings panel has no functionality yet, it's just
|
|
there to show what it will look like when it's finished.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The maximum upload size is 50 MB, any bigger files will be
|
|
rejected.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
There is no installer yet, just put it in some directory
|
|
and run PixelDrain2.jar to start. The lib folder has to be
|
|
in the same directory!
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
During the first run it will install itself in your system's
|
|
config directory, under Linux that is "~/.config/PixelDrain/".
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
From my limited testing on Windows I noticed that screenshot
|
|
thumbnails do not correctly show up under Windows. I might
|
|
fix that soon, but it's not currently a priority.
