There could be a counterparty app that run a webserver to accept these POST requests and save the images.

If the parameters were editable people could use the app to share to imgur and other sites alike.

This is great. I wish there were more of this.

"Sharing" is only good if you can share through standard methods. Call APIs when sharing, share to arbitrary servers etc.

Nice work. I like the simplicity. That its OSS and thus can be (hopefully) used to build a more streamlined (ie preset URL) version is a nice bonus!
