Can't Upload to Cloud Directly From Finder

Running Cloud 1.0.2 under OS X 10.6.4 with the Finder Raindrop installed, I don't see any ability to upload files from the Finder using any kind of context or toolbar menu.

Am I looking in the wrong place, is this just not possible (I assumed that's what the Finder Raindrop was all about) or is something wrong?

Help! Thanks.

    Hi.
    Drag the image to the CloudApp icon in the menubar.

    :-)

    Thanks. I was aware I could do that. So that's the only way to upload from the Finder? That's what the Finder Raindrop does?

    I thought it would add an option to the right-click context menu like many other apps.

    That would be a nice enhancement as it would be closeby and I wouldn't have to drag the file across a 1900x1200 desktop to upload it. ;-)

    Thanks again.

    I completely agree. All raindrops should be contextual menu items.
    I wonder how hard that would be to make as a bundle.

    I thought the exact same thing though, that, with the Raindrop installed, it would be a right click on the specific item and send to CloudApp. UGH.

    You can use your hotkey for it.

    -Set your hotkey -Select file or whatever ( You have to have a Raindrop for it ) -Use your hotkey -Voila!!!

    Have fun!

    Hello Sasha,

    The power of cloud is on their workflow and the easy use. Once you defined a hotkey you can actually use it everywhere, and on every app you have a raindrop installed. It's quite handy ;)
