In case you have WordPress powered e-shop you most probably will need to add products to it filling them with pictures from web. When adding it you will see such an dialog:

wordpress upload dialogue

‘Select Files’ dialogue will open (in case you are on Windows) Windows Explorer, so you can choose file from your PC to upload.Windows upload dialogue

It is not widely known that you can insert link to image file in upload field. So that you could upload without saving the image on your PC.

I found this information on stackoverflow. It seems WordPress strangely does not have plugin to upload image directly to server from link, without downloading file to local PC.
