So while I'm working on a big update for the site, I'd like to be able to keep everyone here in the loop as to the progress of it. I've made a google doc which includes the bulk of the info, which I will be able to keep updating with info once I can't edit this post.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PIXWl0i4DOdmLhMPaeeUwjxNvvLawG5cQt1oxnz75fE/edit?usp=sharing

That's not an exhaustive list of changes I am working on, so if you have an idea or request for something that isn't on that list, please don't hesitate to discuss it here or in a pm with me. Long term, my goal with imgtc is to overtake imgur so I'd like to be able to get feedback from as many users as possible. I'm always available via this topic or pm if you have any questions or suggestions for the site. The site served up 3M images over the last thirty days for the first time and most of them were on gamefaqs, so a big thank you to everyone here who uses the site.

I couldn't give a shit about a public gallery, but the other stuff sounds fantastic. Keep up the good work, man.

Can you make it so the "My Album" folder loads images just like how the regular gallery loads them? having to scroll down then click on "load more images" is annoying.

It's going to be completely separate from the main page, so the process to upload pics won't change at all. Thank you very much

Had some issues with my adsense account so I removed the ads completely. Once traffic picks up considerably I'll put them back in though

I can definitely improve how that works. Thanks for the input, this kind of feedback helps a lot

I'm paying out of pocket right now, only about $100 a month total. I suppose I could always put a bitcoin address on the site if enough people want to donate

A revenue option you should consider is the patreon membership thing where people who pay get exclusive options.

It always something I was always thinking of when running imgh.us

Also to save on bandwidth and uptime you should consider using cloudflare or something similar as a cdn it was nice for imgh before it got taken down because some virus or something got uploaded to imgh.

Thank you, I appreciate that. I did a projection for the ad profitability and once the site takes off, it will really do well covering the costs and allowing me to work on it fulltime.

You can keep track of all your uploads if you have an account

I've got it so that you can add tags to your uploads in preparation for being able to search through public images.

I know, there was an issue with images not loading right for a bit while I was out of the country. Fortunately it's been fixed and any issues that do come up in the future will be fixed right away.

Cloudflare is fantastic. I've been using them since the beginning and on average, they handle about 75% of my bandwidth which for the last month, has been 2tb overall. I'll be using them indefinitely, they're a superior CDN than anything else I have tried. I'll also be using their new stream service once I add video hosting to the site too.

Idk how troublesome it would be. But if you could add simple image editing thatd be useful. Just like, cropping, flipping, and resizing.

Do you have any links to specific images that aren't working? Or do you mean when you go to rehost an image from one of those sites?

I haven't given that much thought yet to be honest, but in the future after this current update I can see about implementing that.

Haha well I wouldn't call myself a celebrity, just trying to provide a useful service for everyone and eventually crush imgur into dust.
