Hey Rodolfo, my site now has +2000 users active at any given time and it has lead me to several suggestions you might incorporate in future releases. I apologize if some of them have been said before, but here goes:

DMCA
- Better ways of removal. Perhaps a text area in which you can insert several links as admin, and mass-delete images and/or albums together? Right now you've got to manually delete everything (and in some cases on the FTP as well) which is quite time consuming.
- Removal message. If you delete something now, it gives out a 404 error message. This is sometimes confusing, especially if the file was deleted after a DMCA request or something like that. It might come in handy for admins to have an (optional) option to leave a 'removal message' when deleting a file. Something like, 'this file was deleted because of a copyright claim'.

CDN
- If you activate the CDN now, everything runs on it. This can cost a lot of bandwidth and it isn't even necessary for most images (too expensive), but it'd help if you could host the general site files (CSS/JS/layout images) on a CDN. So, what I'm suggesting is perhaps the ability to enable/disable CDN for the frontend (general site files) as well.

E-Mail
- I'd like to be able to send mails to my users, for promotions and whatnot. So, perhaps a mass-mail function would be nice? The ability to mail all of your users from within the staff panel at once.

Multi-server storage of some sort
- I've read somewhere that you're going to do this for the next version?

Images/Albums
- Slideshow ability. Navigate between images in an album with the left-right keys.
- Download entire album option.
- Option to sort Albums alphabetically as well.

And I've just noticed that there actually is a slideshow function in Chevereto. I'm sorry for the mishap and for including it in my original post above.

You could always simply replace the image with an image stateing 'REMOVE FOR VIOLATIONS OF DMCA'. I doubt a lot of effort is going to be put into this as DMCA only applies to US citizens and companies. That being said most people use it as a simple copyright violation guideline... However, don't really see this as needing to be a priority...

Ruled not going to happen. https://chevereto.com/community/threads/send-bulk-email-newsletter.5213/

Why not just export your email list into mailchimp or the like?

Both Amazon external storage, a direct FTP option, and multi-server with load balancing is planned.

Operating a site used by many and not having 'automatic' means of moderating it is a serious shortcoming. Even if you were to change the image with a standard image, my point still stands. It is too much work to manually delete all of the images. And DMCA might only apply to Americans, the World Intellectual Property Organization applies globally and the DMCA still serves as a good indicator about copyright theft.

I'm already using SMTP by Sendgrid and I don't mind using an external service, but it would be nice if I could do it from within my control panel. To my knowledge, you can't find an email list in Chevereto, not without exporting that list out of the SQL database yourself.
