I just tested a upload and everything is fine from my end as well. I stopped making backups at the moment because I want to move them to another section within my setup but I still haven't found the time to do it properly... 
Topic: TalkImg.com - Image hosting for BitcoinTalk - page 2. (Read 13142 times)
Some changes were made, which should not have affected the script, API or robots. Either way, I suggest you check if everything is working.
Since you mentioned me: all I download are your backups (31 GB so far), and that seems to be working just fine (no new backup yet). Quote

I'm getting 500 internal service errors.
Were you using any API?
It's just that at the moment all services are ON.

TalkImg 1st Year Update: Info #3____________________
I inform you that uploads have been reactivated.
But maintenance continues, and it may be necessary to suspend uploads again. If this happens, we will inform you.
Thank you for understanding.
TalkImg 1st Year Update: Info #2____________________
This update is taking a little longer than expected. Once again I apologize for this inconvenience caused!
We are working to return to normal as quickly as possible.
TalkImg 1st Year Update: Info #1____________________
Uploads are temporarily suspended, as several files and databases are being updated. The website may be inaccessible during this period.
The images on the forum continued to function normally.
We will try to be brief.
Only thing I could think of is adding support for uploading WEBP images.
This should be added to the forum's image proxy (@theymos).Quote
They are getting used more and more and I think they are usually smaller size than JPG and other similar formats.
Even automatic conversion to supported formats would be acceptable solution.
They are indeed smaller, which makes conversion to JPEG a waste of data (and quality). Even automatic conversion to supported formats would be acceptable solution.
If you want to make new suggestions, I will be available to analyze them.

TalkImg 1st Year Update: Started____________________
I inform you that during this week, I will start implementing some technical improvements to the platform. These updates are more back office updates, with the aim of fixing some bugs and improving the platform's security. It will also improve the possibility of implementing new features in the future. Maybe you won't notice any major changes right away, but I hope new things will emerge in the future.
During this process, all images will continue to be available on the forum, and the site will function normally. The site may eventually become unavailable or new uploads suspended from time to time. But, it will be at very specific moments. I will try to inform you in advance if this type of situation is expected to occur. As work progresses, I will provide more information.
If you want to make new suggestions, I will be available to analyze them.
Thank you for everyone's support!
This subject has actually been talked about in recent days. Check out how the debate on the topic has been going here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.63922087
What I can guarantee is that I will carefully analyze the situation.
Thank you, and sorry I did not notice that the topic was discussed several days ago. The issue was raised in the Altcoin forum and I did not know if anyone before me had asked you about this.https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.63922087
What I can guarantee is that I will carefully analyze the situation.
This is more than enough for me, I will quote the topic there so that things are clear to everyone.
my regards
Hello joker_josue
First of all, I would like to thank you again for this wonderful website and the great benefit you have provided to the forum
As you know, there are many members who have moved to another forum, and since we know that you designed this site for the BitcoinTalk forum, therefore, I would like to ask you, on behalf of the members who moved there, to allow us to use your TalkImg in the other forum.
Please let me know your response so I can put it out there
Thank you

And here you will have a more specific answer:
The platform is open to the general public, but was designed to only work on Bitcointalk. What does that mean?
The server is configured with exclusive hotlinks for the forum image proxy. In other words, the image links should only work on the forum. Requests for access to the image from other websites may be blocked by the server, meaning the image will not be displayed.
This does not mean that the images will not be displayed on other sites/forums. But, I cannot guarantee that this will always happen. The system is automatic, and at any time a website can be blocked by the system and no longer be displayed.
In short, although it is discouraged, you can use the images in forums other than Bitcointalk, but I cannot guarantee how long these images will be visible in these other forums.

I don't know if anyone has already asked about this... But is there a possibility of adding an more option for you to define the image height size?
for example, in the image I posted, I would just like the link to come with the height... the rest I think the forum itself adjusts automatically...

Well, if the person simply deletes or changes the information they intended, this issue is resolved.
More options in the existence of BBCode, are not a great necessity.

I left the image links as code below as an example

BTW even if you don't add it directly into the main platform, it be better if there were some kinds of links or option that will re-direct us to the compressor tool, in case someone needs it. All I'm saying a little visibility would be better.
Yes it is true. I just didn't do it before, because it was in beta. But even in beta it is efficient and useful. So I will change that soon.
Right now I already have a tool that allows to do this compression: https://zip.talkimg.com/
I don't know yet if in the next major upgrade, I will be able to have it integrated directly into the main platform. But, I will at least give this tool more prominence on the platform, so that it is more easily accessible to everyone.
Oh I see, the main website didn't have any option for this https://zip.talkimg.com/.I don't know yet if in the next major upgrade, I will be able to have it integrated directly into the main platform.

I assume you understand what I was trying to say, and will elaborate further what could be the problems when implementing these changes and if you intend to add them in the future?!

Dear joker_josue
I had a question! Why don't you add a tool like image compressor in talkimg, so that we won't have to scroll through other websites or add a buildin image compressor software that will compress big images automatically if anybody tried to upload images that are more then 3mb?!
I get it, normal images taken from internet aren't that big and most of the time users are using that. But when sharing personal images for example "An image of a Pie" which I made recently for the Bitcointalk pie baking contest, I had a quite headache uploading them to BTT. I had to manually resize every images. And nowadays, an image taken from an smartphone are never less then 3mb.
