Drp.io: Fast and easy images hosting
- dewey 13y agohttp://drp.io/files/ http://drp.io/files/ "Please e-mail us at [email] and let us know what you were doing when this error occurred." Edit: And you just copy pasted these ToS from http://minus.com/pages/tos http://minus.com/pages/tos without even changing the name. It still says minus inc on your page.
- httpete 13y agoThanks
- sz4kerto 13y agoReally cool, but I am not sure how this site is going to have a different future to the others. It has no ads, it's free, it offers direct linking -- how're you going to make money to sustain yourself?
- httpete 13y agoI was thinking about displaying a full background image ad (a wetransfer like ad) on the home.
- brokenparser 13y agoSo you have to click on the ad to select a file? Or would it support drag and drop only?
- httpete 13y agoNope, the ad would be the background and there would be a upload zone in the center.
- Kudos 13y agoThere's no money in advertising to uploaders, the only money in this is advertising to the recipients. That's a lesson it took me an embarrassingly long time to learn.
- dalore 13y agoThat's exactly how imgur started though.
- ShaneCurran 13y agoI made something almost identical to this recently: http://www.kegoi.com http://www.kegoi.com
- mosselman 13y agoWorks well. I like the size at which images are displayed: http://drp.io/rUNp http://drp.io/rUNp
- yashg 13y agoNeat. I like that you are using OVH to host instead of AWS. Way cheaper. Are you deleting the images ever?
- httpete 13y agoNot for the moment.
- izolate 13y agoSo, tell us about your dev stack.. This is HN after all
- m4r71n 13y agoIs there an API that can be used for uploading with e.g. curl? Other than that, looks nice and simple.
- httpete 13y agoNope :( I am currently working on a node-webkit client for windows.
- kennywinker 13y agoSomething that could be used with Tweetbot would be great! I'm not particularly happy with any of the options I'm aware of (imgur is not one of them). I've attached their spec for quick reference: ----- HTTP POST which includes the Twitter OAuth Echo headers (described http://dev.twitter.com/pages/oauth_echo http://dev.twitter.com/pages/oauth_echo) POST includes the following fields: - message: text of the tweet - source: "Tweetbot for iPhone" - media: JPEG or MP4 data with a mime type of image/jpeg or video/mp4 and a file name of either image.jpg or movie.mp4 response should be in one of the following formats: - <mediaurl>URL</mediaurl> - { url: URL } - { mediaurl: URL } Their cited example: https://mlkshk.com/upload https://mlkshk.com/upload
- gergderkson 13y agoI made something similar a while ago while I was learning some jQuery. It only uses pasting from clipboard as I use it for sharing screenshots. And chrome only at the moment. http://quickscreen.me/ http://quickscreen.me/
- httpete 13y agoNice feature, I should implement it :)
- saltcod 13y agoCool! I was actually thinking of trying to make something exactly like this to as a learn-Javascript project. Could you talk about how you made this a little? Really appreciate it.
- horseluvvaslim 13y agoDamn that is fast
- httpete 13y agohttp://drp.io/yes http://drp.io/yes
- kmfrk 13y agoI'm sure the creator meant for the vowel-disembowelled name to mean "drop", but I keep reading it as "derp" - which in no way makes it worse!
- httpete 13y ago:D
- liotier 13y agoComing soon from the Reddit crowd: hrp.io
- sheraz 13y agoexcept drop.io was already acquired by Facebook back in 2010 -- see here http://techcrunch.com/2010/10/29/facebook-acquires-drop-io-nabs-sam-lessin/ http://techcrunch.com/2010/10/29/facebook-acquires-drop-io-n...
- ivanche 13y agoIt's even worse - in serbian slang, "drpio" means "he stole [something]" :)
- thejosh 13y agoBug where drag and dropping an image reuploads it.
- httpete 13y agoActually, it is done on purpose. It is a feature which allows you to drag and drop a new image on a file page... but I understand it might be disturbing !
- Kudos 13y agoAllowing direct linking to binary files is a recipe for malware disaster. It's not going to take long for malware uploaders to start using the site to host drive-by malware payloads.
- ned 13y agoSimilar to http://chromatic.io http://chromatic.io Nicely done.
- teddyh 13y agoNo IPv6 support. ☹
- hbz 13y agoReally great image host workflow. I'd love to see the source of this (or something similar) so I could implement it privately. Any ideas?
- maouida 13y agoI like it. But Allowing HTML files is not good http://drp.io/files/5304baa46b183.html http://drp.io/files/5304baa46b183.html
- httpete 13y agofixed :) I am only allowing images for now. thanks!
- drdaeman 13y agoNice, but is this any different from other image hosting sites?
- httpete 13y agoharder, better, faster, stronger
- joshfrieson 13y agoSo fast, so simple. I like it!
- astrojams 13y agoClicking in the "direct link" field should auto-copy the link into the clipboard.
- isxek 13y agoNo way to delete uploaded images?
