This is not a plug for a website.


I have spent a few hundred on a new image hosting site. I'm working closely with my developers trying to provide one of the best free image hosting sites. We have the basic up and running and need more people to test it for small and unfound bugs by myself or my developer.

Know bugs:

[1] .swf files are not linked properly <------ FIXED
[2] bmp are not given thumbnails <------- FIXED
[3] Membership applet up-loader does not work (Will load but won't add files) <------ FIXED
[4] Password star **** out when registering <------ FIXED


The supported files as of now are jpg,zip,jpeg,gif,bmp,tiff,tif,png,swf. If you find any issues with any of those please post them here. It takes a lot of time to find issues related to coding so the MSFN community should be able to nail 99% of all bugs.

I appreciate everyone who helps or post. Any feedback would also be appreciated.

Tried your hosting service, I don't know if its slow or if the picture i uploaded is to big. Uploaded a JPG seeing if id find any problems with it like you said there might be some but no problems on this time. Here's the code your site gave me.

Mods, please do not move this topic.

Nice service XPerties! This will be great for MSFN. Worked like a charm.

EDIT: OK, I see how that works now. very slick

Just one very small thing I noticed when signing up. Can you make the password hidden as its typed on the signup form? I know, like I said, very small thing. Otherwise looks very good!

The second forum link is for other uncommon forums. You will find most only support the forum code #1. Using that will give you this look.



dman, same thing with yours. Using forum code 1 will give you the same effect as above. Helps people on forums to save loading time.


rgreen83..I have added that to the do list. Should be done within 48 hours.

testing....

Looks pretty good so far.

The only thing about the site itself is that the Service and TOS pages won't load. I'm not sure if that's a temporary thing, or a WIP, but something that should probably be taken care of.

Otherwise, good job!

EDITJust wondering... how long with the images be hosted for? Automatic deletion after 1 month or so?

The script is setup to run on a cron job that will remove images that have been clicked less than "X" amount of times in "X" days. I haven't setup the cron and doubt I will for awhile. t might be tested just to make sure it works properly.

Long story short, I haven't decided yet. t might be clicked less than 3 times in 90 days. I think that is fair.

The service will be setup for paypal upgrades to higher packages later down the road. The TOS isn't done yet. My main concern is to find any related bugs t the actually script.

BTW regarding the amount of views per images, I replaced the linking code with a size viewer and counter for the forums code.



Click on the above image and you will see the "viewed" number.

The password has been fixed. See first post.

Anyone finding any other bugs?

looks better than anything i could do but r u planning to change the look once it has had the bugs removed?
works well, i uploaded some of my early work (from when i was learning)


Should turn out well for u

I don't know, I might. I kinda like it. I mean it's plan and simple. Isn't that what people want for a free service?

You are correct, simple is better. And look at Google. People laughed at their page with one textbox, when excite, lycos, altavista, etc. were covered with features and candy. We see who is laughing on that one now

aye you a point there Dman

I like it A Lot! - (dumb & dumber)


Goood work! It is a lot better then my website


One question though, do you have to register before you can upload a pic? Because I browsed for a pic and uloaded it without reg first. just curious.

No you do NOT have to register. Only thing that is good about registering is you keep track of all your pictures you upload and we have a zip feature where you can upload a zip file full of pictures then our system will decompress it and give you all the picture URLs.

Wow... that's a really handy feature XPerties. I think I'll register later on tonight and give that a shot (for testing purposes of course ).

I would recommend you make uploading of ZIP files a registered user only ability. Imagine the warez that will attract...

It is for registered members only and it only extracts image files.
