Image hosting solution

Postby landshark » Mon Jan 16, 2012 9:38 am

Is there any interest in a free image hosting solution similar to http://imgur.com/?

I own several servers at hosting facilities and would be willing to setup something like broncopics.com and install a file/image sharing solution for the club? It would be free and most of the time you wouldn't have to register but if you did it would keep all your photos together in your account and offer other options?

Let me know.. i wasn't sure if there was enough interest but its not a problem on my end.. and my server isn't going anywhere anytime soon...

I think it'd be cool, but I don't know that I need it. Photobucket has served me well for a long time.

at the moment all of your pics get blocked by our content filter when i'm browsing the site at work... hopefully everyone else doesn't start hosting in the same place or i'll have to surf the site from my phone lol

oh ya i have heard about that.. hmmm i can move my site to another new server we have.. I have no idea why we get blocked, there is no adult or inappropriate material on our servers but I have had several people say they cant see some of our stuff... somewhere the host probably got blacklisted and the content filters did a general ban.. happens..

I think that's what happened, I tried going to the pic and the content filter blocked it for adult content.

Allot of times what happens with the blocking software is at sometime in the past someone had or has an adult site hosted with a hosting company and the filters pick it up and start adding the IP address' to the data base and sooner or later they will just ban all the entire IP block from a host.. needs to happen quite a few times however and I know our one host has been around for some time.. so I'm not surprised...

we have another server at a new host so I could move it.. but was gauging interest.. really there are a ton of free image hosting websites out there anyway..
