ATTN: Your help is needed to create the largest U2 image archive on the net!!

SicilianGoddess · 03-26-2002, 12:33 PM

Elvis is working on a U2 image archive so that we will not have to deal with webshots, geocities, angelfire and everything else that has frustrated us so much regarding uploading and posting pictures. For right now I need all your help to upload the best U2 pictures you have from your computer to the archive site. For now it is not for public access.. Elvis wants to work on getting a nice chunk of pictures uploaded, and later they will be sorted and available for posting.

Please name your files as specifically as possible, as duplicate file names will be overwritten. The program accepts jpg, gif, bmp, png, and zip files.

This is for U2 and U2 related pictures only.

Here is the website address where you can upload your pictures: http://satellite33.interference.com/archive/

Until the 1mb web upload is fixed you can ALSO upload with ftp:
ftp://images:u2@satellite33.interference.com:21000/

In Internet Explorer you should just be able to drag and drop files and folders.

I�d like to take a moment to thank Elvis! This will be really cool once its available.

Sicy,

OK this may be a stupid question but when you say images, do you want people to only upload their own personal images.

When I posted pics in PLEBA for example I don't usually go through the bother of downloading them to my own pic page - I just post directly from the web page. So do you want us to post what I would call "other people's pics" and if so I suppose that the only thing is to make sure before we upload them that their website does not specifically say do not take these pics unless authorized to do so.

Can you just clarify and then I'll upload away girl!

Thank you, Elvis! The image archive will rock!

Almost all my U2 pics are ones that I found somewhere and decided to save for myself. You want us to upload those, right? Like icelady said, should we just upload pics as long as the website we got them from didn't specifically say not to?

SicilianGoddess · 03-26-2002, 12:48 PM

To answer your questions, yes.

The pictures should come from your hard drive, of course as long as whereever you got the pictures from allows permission for re-usage.

Elvis · 03-26-2002, 03:58 PM

having a few problems with large files being uploaded. I will fix it this evening...

until then: 1 MB limit temporarily per file

Thanks,

Joel

Crzy4Bono · 10-14-2002, 09:19 PM

Well, if there are bandwidth issues / cost of supporting Interference issues, a big ole picture archive isn't going to help any.

**Sicy** · 10-14-2002, 10:01 PM

Thats on a different server. Elvis has little servers as well.

But anyway this project is on hold right now.
