What is this 'cross posting' thing? by Bloodhound

I've heard from several sources that 'Weasyl has a cross-poster' that would allow me to 'import my FA gallery'.

What does that mean/where do I go to do that/someone explain this sorcery to me I'm old!

EDIT: Ah, no firefox version? Darn.

    Yes I have this! Just follow the link Noiserut gave and install. Then any time you go to an FA, Deviantart, or SoFurry submission (it even works for submissions that aren't yours??? which is kind of weird but hey whatever), the Weasyl icon will show up inside the URL bar, all the way to the left. Click that and it will automatically open the submission page on Weasyl, with the file, description, title and tags taken straight from the original. All you have to do is add the category, folder, and rating (and modify the tags sometimes, since Weasyl's system is little different than most sites). It's pretty awesome, honestly. Saves a lot of time if you post to multiple sites. I just wish it worked for Journals too lol

    While not a crossposter, the Simple Ottermatic Follower Transfer might also interest you. With it, you can import your watchlist from FA to Weasyl.

    You could just use Chrome for this one thing and then not use it anymore?

      Ehhh I don't want to download another browser. If I have to fill in the category and rating and folder anyway, I might as well just stick with the old way.

    One of these days, I'm going to get off my butt and make a Firefox version. Because I want it, too! And maybe I can make it post to Tumblr, too...
