Is there any news? Do you need help with the guide or are you a GURU of that job?

To be honest, I think that CDN is a waste of money (pardon me if I'm wrong) and since the image limit on TalkImg is 2.5 MB, that should be very easy to load for everyone all around the world. I think that loseless compression or automatic convert into WebP formats are better alternative but again, if I'm wrong, tell me.

You are amazing! The reason why I asked you if I could upload images that aren't intended for Bitcointalk, is that TalkImg is a very good platform and it's already in my hand's muscle-memory. I automatically type TalkImg when I want to upload an image online and I think that's a very good achievement of yours. I believe, there will be many like me.

Here is the tutorial/guide:

I hope it is useful for everyone.
I could have said more things, but I didn't want to make the guide too long. In the future I may make other guides of this kind.

 
 Statistics  November 2024____________________
As many of you may know, in November TalkImg allegedly suffered a DDoS attack. This caused considerable instability in the services for several days, forcing us to make several adjustments and changes in order to stabilize and return to normal.

We felt the need to set up Cloudflare and start using this service. It wasn't something we intended to do, but given the circumstances, it was the decision that had to be made. We took advantage of the situation to upgrade the server, becoming even better prepared for the growth of the project and future attacks of this kind.

To date, we have not been able to understand the reason that led to this attack. As we have always said and continue to say, we do not store any personal data of users, nor do we have any other type of sensitive content on the server. If the objective was to finish the project, they did not succeed, as this project is to continue and everything is planned in that direction. We appreciate the support this community has given throughout this process.

Although TalkIng was unavailable for several days, the service continued to be used. Here are the numbers we were able to gather for this month.


Here are the numbers for the month:

	Number of uploads in the month:  2 975 (-4 950 that in the last month)
	Total disk space in the month:  0.99GB (-1.31 that in the last month)
	Number of visits to the talkimg.com website in the month: inaccurate data - not collected  Estimated number of times images were viewed on the forum in the month (hits): inaccurate data - not collected  Bandwidth in the month: inaccurate data - not collected

Hey joker_josue

Is talkimage working properly? I am getting this error (again)! Tried several times, but the system couldn't process the request. Note, I am not using any kind of VPN or any proxies. Will you kindly take a look!

Error report
Request denied (401)

I had tried with several images. Mostly screenshots. But It didn't got uploaded for some reasons!

Anyway, I just tried it again, and now it's working, somehow fixed...weird bug lol

Hi JJ! Happy New Year! I just want to say thank you because I’ve been using your service for this whole year for contests and for posting here in bitcointalk. There have been challenges, but your service has always been reliable and I hope it continues for a long time. Cheers!

Anyway, I’m posting this to share a suggestion. I think it would be better if the default option for the embed code was set to BBCode Full instead of BBCode Fix HxW. 😆

 
 Maintenance  Scheduled____________________
Please be advised that server maintenance is scheduled for 2025-01-06 at around 18:00 (GMT-5). It is expected to take less than 30 minutes.
This maintenance aims to carry out some updates to the server, in order to guarantee greater stability and security.

During this process, the website may be momentarily inaccessible. Images may also become momentarily inaccessible.

We appreciate your understanding.

i just checked on my end, and everything seems to be fine.
it might be a false positive from your antivirus. which one are you using if you don't mind sharing?

i also ran a virustotal scan, and everything came back clean https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/cf7a703757d0288681b6d0903642b6df3b2aab82b2be684103478a861e71cd9d

This will be a false positive. Perhaps generated at the time the site suffered a DDoS attack, causing the antivirus to generate this information.

I explained this a little here: https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/5450546.msg64761577#msg64761577

The website was reset to a new server after the DDoS attack, based on the offline backups that are maintained. Therefore, we can guarantee that no data has been corrupted and the site is safe to visit.

Either way, always keep this in mind: I will never ask for money to upload, I will never ask for personal data. If at any point, a website pretending to be TalkImg is asking for this, it is guaranteed to be fake.

Visited the site after reading your post and the site working perfectly fine for me. Maybe need some clear browser data and try again.
