Some people from our German section have won a small amount of BTC in my recent giveaways and wanted to donate their prizes to TalkImg.com (Turbartuluk and o_solo_miner), so don't be surprised where the valuable BTC arriving on your address comes from (transaction).

To be more precise it's a bundle of donations from different raffles and a bunch of participants.
The transaction contains:
0,25mBTC from @o_solo_miner from this raffle of 1miau.
0,75mBTC from @mikeywith and 0,15mBTC from @bct_ail from my raffle here.
0,5mBTC from me as a bounty for my 1.000 merit screenshot.
0,35mBTC from me because it was left and you deserve it for your service (regard it as a tip)

 Statistics  December 2023____________________
This month's statistics took a little longer, because I was preparing an adjustment to them. From this month onwards, data on occupied disk space will now indicate the space that was occupied during the month of statistics, similar to what happens with the number of uploads. I believe that this way, we can have a more real perspective on what happened throughout the month. In the OP, the total data for the entire service will continue to be updated.

I also added a new element to the statistics - hits. Hits are basically each time a file is accessed. The number indicated refers to hits coming from outside the site (forum, robots, and similar). Therefore, the number indicated is only an estimate of how many times the images hosted were viewed on the forum. I hope you enjoy these new statistical data.


Here are the numbers for the month:

	Number of uploads in the month:  7.197 (-2.459 that in the last month)
	Total disk space in the month:  2.4GB (+0 that in the last month)
	Number of visits to the talkimg.com website in the month: 4.919 (+75 that in the last month)  Estimated number of times images were viewed on the forum in the month (hits): 3.478.270 (+562k that in the last month)  Bandwidth in the month: 667GB (+126 that in the last month)

 2023 Overview
Having reached the end of 2023, I would like to make a small general summary of the statistical data from the "first year" ^{(or almost a year)} of TalkImg. The service started on April 28, 2023, and since then it has been a success, with 77,505 images uploaded. Which represents more than 21GB of images. The site received more than 32,000 visits throughout 2023, and generated a bandwidth of 3.18TB. And it is estimated that the images hosted on TalkImg have been viewed more than 18,000,000 times on the forum. Not forgetting to thank everyone who donated a total of 0.05BTC to the project. Thank you all for these fantastic numbers!

 Statistics  January 2024____________________
During the month of January, the first event promoted by TalkImg was launched: TalkImg Awards - Image of the Year 2023. The feedback is positive, for a first event, which is now in the voting phase (you can vote here...). Hopefully this will be the first of many other future events. However, this will only be possible if we have the support of the community, both in terms of participation and ideas.

We can also say that some preparations are being made for technical improvements and small corrections to the platform, which we believe will improve performance. As soon as these improvements are implemented, I will provide more details. In addition, some more news are being analyzed, stay tuned.


Here are the numbers for the month:

	Number of uploads in the month:  8.396 (+1.199 that in the last month)
	Total disk space in the month:  2.12GB (-0.28 that in the last month)
	Number of visits to the talkimg.com website in the month: 5.399 (+480 that in the last month)  Estimated number of times images were viewed on the forum in the month (hits): 3.646.826 (+168k that in the last month)  Bandwidth in the month: 592GB (-75 that in the last month)

I don't know what's wrong, obviously not my internet connection because i can access other websites and alternatives of talkimg, but the site takes so much longer to load, earlier i only managed to see the background color of the website. After accessing the site, it also takes much time to upload an image, well, it never got uploaded.


Sorry, i used imgbb to upload this image.

I just checked, its working perfectly normal here. And it was working normally earlier today as well, with no issues whatsoever.

Really? Then there's something wrong on my end (using desktop), i checked the site after receiving a tg notification from you, now using mobile (earlier was desktop) although i can access the site now but it takes at least 10-15 seconds, but still good though unlike earlier where i access the site for several times but no good.

How strange. According to the verification site, the service has been functional for several days in a row:
https://talkimg.betteruptime.com/

I haven't had any access issues either.

Are you using any VPN? Or are you using Tor?

[LoyceV]

Or are you using Tor?

I just checked: the site loads normal even on Tor.

Yes, i usually didn't mind things like this since i know it was temporary, i know what could be other possible reasons and solutions (on my end)  but it already takes much longer than i thought so i start asking.
Btw that's a nice uptime status webpage.

Are you using any VPN? Or are you using Tor?

No and no. So far the site is all goods now in mobile, idk later in desktop and thanks for the respond.

[JeromeTash]

No and no. So far the site is all goods now in mobile, idk later in desktop and thanks for the respond.

If the problem persists on your desktop, try checking if there is an add-on or extension interfering with the way the site loads. You can open a new window in Private or incognito mode and try visiting the site once again.

Hello again, I'm on the road for a few days and have seen a couple of things Rugby related which I was hoping to upload to the talking.com web site direct from my phone (for use in the Rugby Bitcoin gambling thread here on the forum). However, I can't see an option to resize whilst selecting the images to upload and your site says the images are too big which is fair enough.

I was wondering does the resize occur when uploading and I haven't encountered the file size error previously simply because none of my other images have come directly from my phone's camera?

(And how can I specify an image resize via an android browser such as Tor?)

Thanks again.

The main site does not resize to the size of a file. But...
Try using the zip service I have available, here:
https://www.zip.talkimg.com/

Wow, this is a great service.
Why doesn’t it get applied to every image uploaded to Talkimg?
If it is bigger than 2.5 Mb then zip, else upload directly.
Yes, I know.
Everything has a cost, but you wouldn’t apply the zip workload to every image, but olny, to those too large.

In reality, this is what I intend to implement. But this model is still in BETA mode, to check how everything works, and then I still have to do some tests, to understand how I can integrate it into the final platform.

For now I am preparing to implement the correction of some errors, and then I will try to explore this element. Until then, feel free to use the ZIP version whenever necessary.
