I was not able to replicate this issue, perhaps you weren't using .jpg? – Timi, on November 09, 2009 22:43

TinyGrab is designed to recognize jpg, I will be testing this right now. – Timi, on November 09, 2009 22:39

This patch should do the trick.
Quit TinyGrab
Patch TinyGrab
Relaunch TinyGrab
It should no longer be in the dock.

For now this must be done manually. I have made you a short, simple screencast on how to do so.

A comment on the question "Uploading to Personal Server: Not happenin'" in TinyGrab:

It's not verifying the path on the server. 'ls' is just used to test that it can connect. It could technically find ls on your mac if you put it in the root folder, but that still won't help. Test is not going to test the path. Only an upload will.

Definitely try the character substitution fix. Any special characters such as @ or " or ' or \ and so on that are in either your password or username for FTP, change them to the hex value. – Timi, on November 09, 2009 02:44

Try switching the @ symbol to %40
This is a really stupid bug that I'll have fixed for the next version – Timi, on November 08, 2009 20:28

Does your FTP username contain an @ symbol? – Timi, on November 08, 2009 20:10

SFTP is on the "We Really Want To Do This" list. I do not have a timeframe for you, but I am looking into it.

Is TinyGrab.app in a location where it's writable by you as a user?

Timi replied on November 07, 2009 16:32 to the question "Syncing deleted grabs?" in TinyGrab:

Currently you can't. Just let them disappear into the abyss, there's only five visible.

You can however find your entire history in
~/Library/Application Support/TinyGrab/History.txt
and ~/Library/Application Support/TinyGrab/History_Long.txt

Deleting the line there will take it out of the menu the next time you upload something, but that's a round about way to do that. I shall look into something for having a synced history.

Very sorry about that!
The FTP support is a command line, so the @ was probably throwing off the command. I'm not sure how this would be fixed at this time, but it's great to see you've got it working.

Timi replied on November 07, 2009 15:57 to the problem "FTP Upload not working" in TinyGrab:

The "Test" button merely confirms validity of the username and password for the FTP server. It does not confirm the validity of the server, or existence of the path. There is currently a bug with the validation where if the server is non-existant (such as a misspelled server) it will falsely pass.

The Path field is relative to the FTP user's access, and cannot be absolute.

If there is an error log on the server, it might contain some information about what went wrong with the upload. If there is anything of interest that you believe might be of help to us, feel free to email it to me: tim@tinygrab.com

A comment on the question "Go away status-bar icon!" in TinyGrab:

Sorry about that. The best that can be done is you can change the keyboard shortcut with System Preferences. – Timi, on November 06, 2009 21:43

You'll want to put your Download URL in the Website URL field.
sitegorund400.com goes into Server
public_html/tinygrab/ goes into Path

Timi replied on November 06, 2009 20:57 to the question "Uploading to Personal Server: Not happenin'" in TinyGrab:

Are you using in-app FTP?
When you press the Test button, it merely checks the username/password for the server given. It does not check the existence of the server, nor the path validity. Unfortunately at this time it is up to you to ensure these are correct.

At the time of Mr. Cook's comments neither party was aware of the Spotlight requirement. – Timi, on November 06, 2009 20:01

Timi replied on November 06, 2009 11:48 to the question "Go away status-bar icon!" in TinyGrab:

TinyGrab does not take screenshots. The keyboard command for taking screenshots is part of OSX. You're going to have to talk to Apple about a mouse command for that one.

Menubar Icon Hiding is still in the works, other things have taken priority at the moment, I will be getting to this as quickly as I can.

Secret screenshots have a much longer, non-sequential url. Such as:
