Suggestion

[Titch]

Hey,

Well after seeing whats been happening with uploadpicz i have came up with another idear, why not just get rid of uploadpicz.

My Reason:

1) The space it uses on server could be used elsewhere or maby be anuf to downgrade to a less expensive server therfor saving habbox money which they need as they cnt sell vip anymore.

2) No offense to jin here but no1 is really experienced with it so when something goes wrong, no-one knows how to fix it, if you picked an offical uploaded (sumin like TehUpload) you would have someone who knows what they are doing to help you, and if the site went down for some reason, you wouldnt be held responsable and wouldnt have threads asking why its down and moaning.

My suggestion is get rid of it, appoint an offical habbox upload site which you could work along side with, (getting you and them more bussiness) and save so much money from the server space it takes up.

What does anyone else think? Anyone agree, or disagree?

I disagree. With Habbox owning it they know exactly what is going on 100% of the time. Using the same example as you "tehupload" say it went down for maintenance it's not under Habbox's control so they wouldn't be able to explain to people what had gone wrong and how long it'll be until it's back etc.

or you could just use a mainstream uploader like imageshack or photobucket.

okay i undertsand what you mean, but the time it goes down and is fixed and comes back off would be less, and they have the experience with working with it, if you understand what i mean and its easier for them to locate and fix the problem than would be for habbox, as seen atm. Also the space it takes up would save habbox server costs.

Reason i said sumin like TehUpload was becuase you would want one you can work close communication with.

or they could just not leave images on uploadpicz and put on server lol

i think i'm to blame for the rare value images going missing because i always put them on uploadpicz because nobody would ever put them on the server for me that's what happens when you take shortcuts!!

As i can't reply to due being a cautioned member i'd like to post my own thread, Heres the link for people who havent read:

I feel its a good idea obviously for the uploader to be on Habbox's sever but on the other hand its obviously putting strain on Jin and any other member who has attempted to fix uploadpicz, Surely it would be abetter idea just to allow Caleb's tehupload to be the offical uploader. Although they think 'we dont own it' 'We can't control the site' Its such a better idea tho its not even been down i dont think?

Agreed. And Jin certainly does know what he is doing but he is extremely busy with other things aswell

I didnt mean he doesnt know what he is doing, becuase i know he does. i just ment the other person would have more experience in what they are doing and it would be easier.

They will think that because they don't own it, and they cannot control it, it's not a wise choice.

Just be patient, if you're missing UploadPicz so much that you're having withdrawal symptoms, maybe you should see a specialist. It's just a very small image host - there are bigger giants out there - ImageShack, TinyPic and Photobucket just to name three.
