This extension adds a right click option to rehost an image to a free image hosting service and copy its URL to your clipboard.
If you have used the "Rehost image" extension for Firefox, then you are familiar as this one works exactly the same way.

There are many cases you want to add an image to your article, but you don't want to hotlink it from the original site and you don't have the time to download it to your hard disk, upload it to your site or to a free hosting service and then add it in your text.

This extension simplifies the process. You right click on an image, you select "Rehost image and copy URL" and the image is automatically uploaded to the free hosting service imgur.com
Also, the exact URL of the image (http://i.imgur.com/imagename.jpg) is copied to your clipboard, so you can paste it in your article.
