With one line of HTML, you can pull a photo from dropbox, convert and resize it, and dump it into your S3.

This is the first I've heard of your service. It looks really cool.<p>I would find the image conversion particularly useful. Is it possible to upload a file and have it saved at multiple sizes? I couldn't see a way to do this in your API docs.... or else I'm just reading it wrong.<p>Congrats and keep up the great work.

Looks good. We'll be implementing something with filepicker.io in about 2 weeks. How can you make the "pick file" button open and default to "my computer" each time it opens?<p>Or, even better is there anyway to simply embed the pop up window in a page and eliminate the need to open a modal or pop up?

I really wish I had your S3 upload feature a few weeks back. Right now I get users to select a file to use as their profile picture. Then I save the file locally to my server, upload it to S3, then delete the local file. Huge PITA.

Oh god, I just finished integrating Filepicker.io with a client site and I was thinking "man, it would be great if the button showed an indicator that it was done uploading".<p>I think I'm in love with you guys.

I hate to ask this ... but is there a graceful fallback for IE7 clients?

This is the first time I am coming across this, and I wonder if it works on mobile (saw the webcam feature on the site). Also, as an sdk, integration to mechanical turk would be great so you could workflow it through moderation. Also, document format conversion (not just images) would be great if you piped them through Google drive somehow...

Awesome service! Congrats Liyan.<p>In the past i hated develop the "upload-code", now with your service it's really easy: just one html line.

Whats your technology stack for this? Is it NodeJS?
