It works only when you're in the media library, but when i try to paste an image @ the featured image section nothing happens.

I really liked it, but it would be nice to add the ability to upload many photos at once, rather than one at a time. I recommend the plugin, everything works.

I can just drag and drop an image and it's instantly uploaded. Fantastic!

Speeds up the process of downloading an image and then uploading... Now, all I have to do is drop the url to the image... Thanks you very much !
