Separate thread for upload screenshoots

When I press screen shoot to send in IRC entire client freezes.
It should be separate thread in IRC module, not entire client.

A bump?
Sometimes it freezes client for over minute (always have timeouts disabled) then pop up server error, timeout or whatever.
Snapshot taken, saved, run thread to upload it, send irc msg after succesfull upload or popup error…

get a real internet connection , or don't do screen-shots.

there's enough people who insist on using the feature, it can't be broken.

Orly? I wish I can :)
Shoots are needed to share solutios, shows funny stuff and teach newbs.
IRC/transmission part of client need to be fixed asap…

A "real" internet connection isn't slow dial-up.

Trying to push that screenshot up to the server through a slow connection is like having a small snake trying to eat a whole pig. Not much chance for success.

Those that experience server time-outs and IRC connection issues shouldn't try screen-shots. Some things just require bandwidth.

I`m on 512kbit wifi ISP, so not a dial up :)
Speed is not the issue, only sometimes stability of connection.
Client just should not kill itself because it can not send something. Put it in queue and sent when IC will be available…
