Description
Currently once you upload an image it just leaves you back at screen. We should consider on success offering next steps. We could use this as a chance to add encouragement:

I feel like there should be a better way to allow copying the data for the uploaded files.
In its present state, to copy the media's URL, you need to right-click and copy the Image URL and that URL is for the thumbnail size (150x150 by default) which involves one more step of editing the URL manually.
To copy/edit any other attributes of the media, you need to click on the "Edit" link which is a _blank link.
While the use for direct URLs might not be very popular for images, users do need direct URLs for media such as PDFs and ZIP files.
A good solution IMO would be to divide the media-item div into columns of data (URL, ID, SIZE?) for the uploaded media
Here's a quick mockup of what I'm thinking (not a designer, so pardon the inconsistencies):

This seems like it could be closed - as seen in the attachment above, the uploader has different UI/UX now, such as drag and drop, an edit button, copy url etc...

- Milestone Awaiting Review → 5.8
- Resolution → fixed
- Status new → closed
Given that the only specific suggestion in this ticket is about having the ability to copy the image URL, and that has been added as well as an 'Edit' link to immediately proceed to editing, it does make sense to close this ticket.
Given the other changes, the other consideration - moving to another stage - no longer makes sense.
Closing as fixed, given that that the direction of the ticket has been resolved. Setting the milestone to 5.8, which is when the 2nd of the two features, the copy button, was added.
Mhmm, actually I like the way, that it stays in the same screen, because its easier to procced woth uploading more media. But indeed, it would be a nice idea to add a success message, behind the progress bar.
