I just whipped this up so Aussie forum trolls can upload images and stuff with what I hope will be greater ease - if yall could test it out and let me know a) if it breaks and b) what you think that would be tres handy.

http://www.ausimages.com

Update 12/05/2005:
- Added in "show linking instructions" underneath viewable images so you can more easily link images (will work on every image)

Update 07/03/2005:
- You can now edit your image descriptions (and admins can edit them as well)
- Some admin functionality updates



TODO:

- better group management
- basic image editing? (maybe)
- public groups?
- image keywords?


Wanted:

- people to help moderate
- suggestions for new features!

That is f***en awesome.

http://images.ausimages.com/upload/2005-01-27/TN_springfield.png

You can't upload the same image twice, this might be a problem if people are uploading files from digital cameras and might come across other peoples uploaded images due to the naming convention of some companies, suggestion might be to do what other image hosts use (imageshack) and put a few random characters at the end or start of the file.

Nice one trog.

http://images.ausimages.com/upload/2005-01-27/TN_BigXbox.jpg

I just uploaded an image........
where is it?

I tried again, it said image already loaded

Another thing, is this going to be purely for ausgamers/ausforums use? ie referer blocked? if not, the majority of forums out there in internet land use BB code's rather than allow HTML, would a possible to include a [img][/img] base textarea in addition to the HTML code?

As is this - I was planning on asking people to supply samples of stuff to add in. I don't know anything about other forums and I'm too lazy to look but if people want to provide samples I'll happily add them in!

After you upload it you should get a massive page with info about how to link it - if you're not, something isn't working

first image on the hdd

also trog, i've noticed ausbabes is gone (has been for a while) is this new ausimages taking the bandiwdth/space that ausbabes once had?

How long will the images stay up there?

Another suggestion trog, target="_blank" would be handy in the links too :)

Sif.

trog - i work for a company who runs an online gallery www.photobox.co.uk -man we get wierd s*** uploaded. Id revise your terms and conditions, have a look at ours.

what checks do u perform? ie size? jpg checking? you might find warez kiddies uploading movies and s***.

trog would have that covered... surely

Can we use it on other forums?

bit conserned about this myself, trog might have to move it to trogbox

If you have so much bandiwdth to waiste trog why dont you go back to hosting files on files.ausgamers.com that was actually worth downloading like game movies and music vids ect not just linux iso s***

My image

heardy, lies
nf, I dunno, the whole thing is just a big toy at the moment - until I get bored
mooby, as above - its just a test. every image that is uploaded at the moment I check out, plus its trivial for people to complain about things.

Uploading large files in PHP is plain dodgy anyway; there is a file size limit of a few megs and the script only accepts images - anything else will get binned (this is checked when thumbs are created).

If we were worried about what people could publish on our resources then we'd obviously have to shut down the forums!

procs, you're a weirdo

madness, would be nice if you could add the pharseing for BBcode linking.

after you upload a pic there should be a line of code that you can copy and paste into forums, so as the pic is displayed at a full size and not a down-scaled size. this would help n00bs liek me. its not always best to display a down-sized pic etc...

also trog, i've noticed ausbabes is gone (has been for a while) is this new ausimages taking the bandiwdth/space that ausbabes once had?

I thought it was at http://babes.ausgamers.com?

It's there but everything is outdated.
:(

dopefish...you liek have teh internets. there are plenty more websites offering you images of scantily clad womanz for your everyday needs and desires...

:S

its not always best to display a down-sized pic etc...

Yeh it is :(

http://images.ausimages.com/upload/2005-01-28/TN_Eminem.jpg


Any way of getting a bit of personalisation to it? Like you have to have an ausgamers account and all images go into a subfolder with your account? eg: skrybe/pic.jpg?

And if possible allow browsing of that folder. It's cool giving the sample html to link to the image. But it's a pain in the butt finding it if you forget and want to link to something later.

http://images.ausimages.com/upload/2005-01-28/TN_dog2.jpg

Also, if you do go for a bit of personalisation, could we get the option to delete an image that we've submitted? Or even if we can't delete it ourselves, can you add a "Request image deletion" button?

And on another note... the thumbs go into a whole different folder... and they're case sensitive. Might be worth pointing that out to users.

Very handy regardless. Good stuff Trog.

No they don't?

oh poo, how do I get back to where it gave me the link to hotlink?

Just rechecked.

The URL for the pic is:
http://www.ausimages.com/view/2005-01-28/dog2.jpg

But the actual pic is located at:
http://images.ausimages.com/upload//2005-01-28/dog2.jpg

And the thumb said it was at:
http://images.ausimages.com/upload//2005-01-28/TN_dog2.jpg

Which is why I thought they were two different locations. Soz Trog.

That is my fridge, hi

Why do we want to look at a giant pic of your fridge?

cause your mum said so

mantra, babes.ausgamers.com was down for a bit a while back - I am sure trog will confirm this?

either way I didn't check before posting, so I looked like an idiot :/

nothing new there :)

thats good stuff trog (Y)

The devil made me do it...........

http://images.ausimages.com/upload/2005-01-29/TN_katdumb2.jpg

hahah ET

if you create an account you can now keep track of what you've uploaded (accounts are _not_ ausgamers accounts but its a pretty easy process to make one)

edit: you can now search your images by description

added in image groups so if you want, you can let people see a bunch of your images from one page: http://www.ausimages.com/groupview/1

This almost renders my own upload useless.

But good work none-the-less el troggo

FYI ... Outlook is dumping the 'AusImages.com Account Verification' emails into the junk folder for those looking for it.

The page also fails XHTML validation even though it's supposed to be 'XHTML 1.0 Strict' :p

/me raises hand for moderation. Come on troggles, respect #25 :D

Also, something probably not worth the effort, but awesome all the same... I would suggest maybe getting Nathan to (or you, if you have l33t skills) write a mega hax0r program that allows you to drag & drop files to ausimages then get back the code to make them work on the forums.

I would suggest maybe getting Nathan to (or you, if you have l33t skills) write a mega hax0r program that allows you to drag & drop files to ausimages then get back the code to make them work on the forums.

I started working on something similar (for an unrelated project) a while back, but it turned into a nightmare:

a) You can use ActiveX for IE, but then it doesn't work on Firefox
b) Even if you do use ActiveX, you have to teach users what it means when you get security warnings in IE about loading ActiveX objects
c) If you want to do a cross-platform solution, you have to use Java, which means requiring the JRE, which is painful.

If you are really keen you could write a wrapper (and by you I don't mean trog) to upload them for you, so you can drag and drop, tho it will suck if/when they change how you do things cos you'd have to rewrite your wrapper app.

Yeah I'll do some moderation.

hah asif you should moderate.. you'll cry to sa when someone uploads an photoshop image and then get ebaums to doss the network or something

i however don't want to be a moderator because last time i said yeah and got picked NOTHING HAPPENED (stupid command and conquer s***e)

I'll Help moderatre trog, i am a very responsible and mature person.

I don't want to moderate, I don't have the time :(

I do however have another suggestion :)

How about giving users the option to create thumbs in a variety of sizes? You could allow them to pick from say 3 "standard" sizes to go with their larger image. Maybe 80x80, 160x160 and 320x200 or something similar.

I dunno whether it'd be best to limit it to picking a single thumb size or not. I think it'd be cool to make it possible to select more than one, so I could upload a pic and create a tiny thumb for here and a medium size thumb for some other site.

Might also be worth creating wallpaper size versions as well. eg: Allow the user to upload a 1600x1200 pic and choose to create an 800x600, 1024x768 and 1280x1024 versions automatically.

edit: If you're going to have people moderating then I'd assume you'll be creating moderation tools. Like a "New images for group xyz" page that'll give the moderator a gallery view of all the thumbs created since a certain date (like their last login). I'd also look at a few criteria based moderation pages like listing files by file size, maybe pixel size (if you can do it) and I'd also try to knock up some sort of word filtering to match files with offensive names or rude words in their descriptions.

Obviously, the last suggestion won't catch everything (and is easy to bypass) but it'd be a start.

Disk space is too much at a premium at the moment for something like that but its worth considering.

I wouldn't like to think how many threads I have spent an 5+ extra minutes in just staring at your sig Dopefish - that thing is fuggen mesmerising...

Oh yeh umm what was I saying? Big ups to you on this one trog is the win :)

Another thought, it creates thumbnails for tiny images as well. Might be worth checked the pixel size and if it's smaller than 128x128 then don't thumbnail it (or simply duplicate the file instead of resizing it).

eg: I just added a gif that was about 15x15 (724bytes) and it created a thumbnail that is 128x128 and 132KB.

Trog, that chick has pubes.

scuzzy, how's that?

That sir is totaly radical

You should put on a fuction where someone could paste a link to a picture and ausimages saves it and then hosts it. So if someone see a pic on another site and they want to post it on qgl, they dont have to save it to their computer then upload

Random eh?

why? if a picture is that big you probably shouldn't be using a free image hosting site to host it. even on dialup pictures don't take that long to upload, just go do something else while you wait.

ausimages account thing isn't linked to here is it? I figure not seeing as you log in there with an email. I reckon it should be linked to the user db of ausgamers.
