hawk Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Hello, I believe this isnt advertising so please dont delete. I know people dont have there own hosting for sigs, so I want to provide a service to do that. I know there is a lot of free ones out there, but they have advertising and long urls for ur images, so I want to provide a better one. So I need everyones oppinions on what they would want and not want in a free image host. All the fetaures you would like to see etc Any suggestions you can make would be appreciated and incoporated into the site. Many Thanks Hawk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opius Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 If you want to actually stand out from the crowd with this, you're going to have to do something unique. Dynamic sigs, rotators (been done, but still not mainstream), customizable thumbnails, FTP and HTTP upload abilities, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawk Posted February 18, 2006 Author Share Posted February 18, 2006 Yeah, I was thinking of offering ftp access. Maybe even creating it as a free hosting, rather than limited to image upload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnno Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 I say stick to one thing - web hosting is a lot more complex and time consuming than image hosting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercie Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Make sure you allow for deleting individual files and for multiple file upload. If there is one thing I hate about image shack, it's that you have to individually upload each screenshot or something. Rotator abilities seem like they would be a nice addition too.

Knife Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 I agree with Mercie that multiple image upload is something that would be very useful. Such a simple thing but something that is so useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarjar Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Well hawk i think it is a great idea. When i first started out here at GTAForums i had know idea how to get my own sig or avatar. I think it would be great to have like a link to your upload image site in the sig and avatar setting pages for all users. If you need any help i would love to give a hand.
