I assumed like you that their redirects should be able to manage whatever I'd throw at them, I was very wrong. You are welcome to play around with the URLs and update me. But the behavior I was seeing was difficult to nail down and seemed to indicate some inconsistencies with their network. Or it's that I was staring at PHP code and RegEx statements too long and my brain quit and wanted stable access without any question. (Although, it could also be I have such a bad sinus infection that my teeth and upper jaw feel as though I tried to eat ball bearings) I'd rather make it definitely work for everyone than worry too much about fringe use cases. Going forward we can worry about fringe and refining things. Either way, we can't link straight to the i.imgur.com domain to hotlink, or restore hover, unless they are willing to unblock us. My instinct here is that there is going to be some major change with them in the coming weeks. All this stuff with Reddit can't be coincidental. I'm also assuming we aren't like the only large forum hit with this "new restriction on classifieds" it's just not all public yet.

Today was all about "stopping the bleeding." Tonight/tomorrow is about getting a server up and running. Part of the reason for my "nobody is free hosting any longer" question is now I need to be more focused on restricting access. Although immediately I'm only going to allow hot-linking from within NASIOC. So for most people, it will be useless, BUT enterprising individuals (not site members) may still use it for album storage. So adding a way to tie it to vbulletin user accounts may be necessary. |

There is still flickr, but unless you pay for Pro account ( as you said), it is limited to 1,000 pics. Not sure what size pics.
Google photos will let you link as I leaned yesterday (Thanks, Kai!) but not without jumping thru some loops. Whether or not the mage will remain linked forever, I don't know. |

^ Flickr is for people managing and selling photos and art more than a storage place for dickbutt. In fact, you can't upload anything that is not your intellectual property there.

Sorry, you #triggered me when you mentioned machine learning/neural nets.
The Army asks us about that every time we sneeze. They want to machine learn all the things! I have to keep explaining: it's GREAT if you have one simple problem that's repeated a million times. It's TERRIBLE if you have a thousand different problems. Machine learning is super if this is a task that you could train a thousand five-year-olds to do with enough time. I don't see a particular need to AI the "who's boosting our service for their own site?" detection. A little multiplication and an order-by would get you there. |

...and plus. ...and wave, health, iGoogle, hangouts, and Orkut. Anything you upload to myspace or friendster may not be available in the future. Facebook is free because you are the product. My comcast personal site for images from the early 2000's seems to have silently died. The only thing that lives is a web server I pay for that I stopped updating in 2007 because linkedin and facebook (but still use for email and other stuff), and I feel bad. |
