Topic on the Android board:
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/615389-android/76630221

tl;dr, it's the fastest way I can think of to upload an image to an image hosting site and get the direct link for said image. Good for sites like GameFAQs, Reddit, etc.

I can't tell if you're being serious or not. It might be due to only having slept about 2 or 3 hours last night, and being on my third cup of coffee today, but my heart skipped a little at that.

Oh, I'm serious, plenty of image hosts and stuff these days make it seem like they don't WANT people actually being able to use them effortlessly, Imgur being one of many offenders.

Yeah, that was a main driver behind the app. That and that I just wanted a more seamless method of uploading images in GameRaven.

I've never understood this mentality. It's cheaper than a small coffee. And would you really rather an app that throws a full-screen ad at you every time you upload an image?

That's a pretty good idea for an app, but those hosting sites aren't much use off of GameFAQs, so in that regard the pricing is a bit steep. This is not the audience that will pay much for apps.

Add Imgur and Reddit support and I'd say it's worth it.

You don't sound familiar with Android permissions...

The bigger issue here is that the owner of imgtc would very much not appreciate the increase in traffic that isn't looking at any ads. This is how you kill an image host.

Isn't the owner of imgtc also a user here? At least that's what I always thought for some reason.

Vgy.me and Nupic both seem to be used a good deal on Reddit.

I originally planned on having Imgur support, but among other things, the fact that their API has tiny caps that require a paid monthly subscription to bypass is ridiculous and made me decide not to.

I don't believe Reddit has an API to upload images without an associated post on a subreddit. That goes against the point of this app, which is to be completely agnostic in regards to where the image is eventually being shared - hence why it gives you a direct link to post wherever you want.

Yes, which is why I'm sure he'd be annoyed if not only traffic that has nothing to do with GameFAQs sharply increased, but that traffic wasn't viewing ads either.

He's largely inactive on GFAQs now. His main haunt is Reddit now, and he advertises his hosts there regularly. He is also very aware of my original intent in making this app and while he has been plenty responsive to my messages when the site goes down, he has never voiced any opposition to the app. So as far as I'm concerned, I have his approval.

not to mention that google literally pays you if you fill out a survey every couple of days or so. nothing secretly personal, mostly just my location history
I easily have $20+ at a time, grabbing apps here and there that seem interesting

It's something that I've looked at on and off over the years several times. The problem, at least every time I've looked at it before, is that I just don't have the steady, uninterrupted time I'd need to dedicate to figuring it out. Embedding images in the text fields, especially the custom text field I use for messages, is problematic.

@Corrupt_Power - you are the actual developer?

Yep. GameRaven is an Android app for the GFAQs boards. Think iOS's old PowerFAQs, but better in every way, for Android, and not under constant fire from SBAllen and CBS.
