I got bored of taking screen shots using the keyboard, then pasting it in paint and uploading it myself. So I made this script to do it for me.
It runs in the background, and will take a screenshot when you press shift+F11, save it, play a notification sound (One of vistas default ones) then upload it to imageshack, and then it even opens a browser window with the direct link to the image.
Save it as a .pyw file - so when you run it it will not open a console window.
It requires python 2.6, PIL and the Win32 extensions.
