Re: Accepted Suggestions

I think you should put the

Watermark, Password protect and folder management on the backburner and focus on adding multi-uploader support instead

uploading is what this script is all about and multi-uploading should be one of the first goals to achieve.

my 2 cents

Re: Accepted Suggestions

The password protect is ready, i just have to add the documentation in the next release, but i don't think that the multiuploader it's a must. This is because the script doesn't handle several user request in order to avoid high cpu usage both malicious or just pig ways. For example, you can open several tabs (or windows) and make a lot of requests, there is no control about this subject and if we place multiuploader before this, is even easier to cause this cpu issues.

Why not write some small php code that put's the uploads in a queue?

example:

I select..

-file1
-file2
-file3
-file4

I click upload ....

now the script opens 1 connection (like before when only uploading 1 image) and starts uploading file1, once complete it starts with file2 etc...
Maybe put in an option for the admin to allow XX connections per IP allowing more connections than 1 per IP...

Re: Accepted Suggestions

Here are some more ideas that aren't really all that hard:
* a DELETE IMAGE LINK ?

* when resizing an image, automatically calculate the corresponding height
* let us choose between adjusting width or adjust height

*an ADMIN view that:

-shows all thumbnails (when clicked with their respective URLS)
-Shows who by means of IP (later with the user mod it will show the name if registered and IP if guest)
-Shows the image size

*Admin view that allows you to define a specific amount of SPACE the script can use on the harddrive and shows a little bar at how much it already used and what's free.

*Setting for the maximum file size
*Setting for the type of file

Em... Slow down. You're thinking in things that are really, really far to come.

Re: Accepted Suggestions

After uploading, an "Upload more" option would be nice or something to go back to the main screen.
At the moment, clicking on the logo takes you to the beginning again, but that seems the only way to get back.

!!!Refreshing the page uploads the image again with a different ref.!!!   <= bug?

*Setting for the maximum file size
*Setting for the type of file

Setting the maximum file size or what file types a user can upload isn't all that hard.
Chevereto now limits the size to max 2MB so making this configurable should be easy (just replace the hard coded value with configurable value)
Chevereto now limits the file types so making this configurable should be easy (just replace the hard coded values with configurable values)

Nice idea...

I also support the idea of multiple file-upload, would be cool.

Rodolfo, how many programmers are working on this? Only you?
When is 1.5 going to be released? circa...

Re: Accepted Suggestions

I am really waiting for 1.5.......

Password protect is a good idea, though I would really love User accounts with thumbnail preview of all images uploaded by the user...
Use of MySQL would be good for managing users.....

Re: Accepted Suggestions

Me parece que lo de dejar que el usuario escoja el ancho y alto está bien y es algo bastante útil...espero chevereto siga mejorando....soy nuevo en esto de los sitios web, estoy trabajando en un proyecto personal y chevereto sera una de las herramientas (para lo de las imágenes y su hosting) que usare....por supuesto pondré mi respectivo link a esta página.

Re: Accepted Suggestions

Rodolfo,

I feel a priority release is needed. Currently the script as it is, isn't usable as an image upload service because of the inability to detect already existing images.

I have users uploading the image 'screenshot.jpg' and seeing the image being overwritten all the time.

I suggest you alter the script to check for existing images (name, extension, size, MD5 hash,...) to prevent this from happening. This is IMO the most pressing for chevereto.

greets

Re: Accepted Suggestions

Wout000
If the script isn't usable... Then use another one. I want to make a lot of changes but i don't have time and many things to do. So if you want to build a image hosting service, go around and buy some script with more functions.
