That's one thing we've already thought to do, but I'm not sure it will be ready in a near future. When Martin comes may answer it.

By now, I must say that with most of my uploads I'm putting the size (inches) and type (one sheet, UK Quad, Japanese B2...whatever) in comments, so when that tool is ready, I would only have to copy it, but I'll be sure of that information. That's not a problem with most of posters that are one sheet, but some others could be impossible to recognize (a French Grande or a French Petite are proportional the same, both French... if I wouldn't write it I would forget). I usually put too some other information that could be useful in the future, don't know, example:

-Moonraker (United Artists, 1979). International One Sheet (27" X 41") Style B.

-The Living Daylights (United Artists, 1987). One Sheet (27" X 41") Advance.

All have the name of the movie, the company, year (of the poster, not the movie), kind of poster, size, ant type (usually doesn't have a name, others is Style A-B... or Advance) and sometimes, if original is doble sided (DS)). It's too the way I name them in my hard disk, so just copy the name and paste it.

So, if you want that when that will be ready to be quickest to put all the information, you can write it in comments, at least, in not so obvious ones (three sheet, international posters...)
