Greetings! I have started a new project called "Image Collective". It is an open-source image sharing platform written in PHP.

The address is: http://imagecollective.sf.net

It is currently in an open-beta. This means I am trying to get as much traffic as possible to it and kind of to spread the word.

I just started the project. It is a project on Source Forge. I plan to develop it more this weekend. Even registering is not working right now but one can login with user admin password admin.

Thanks for looking!

Hello! I have just made a major update to my project website. This new update gives new features:

- Visitors are auto-created a guest account which they can turn into a real account by setting a username/password

- Ability to "Explorer Images" - look at all images uploaded with thumbnails

- Ability to "tag" images. Every use can create their own tags for an image.

- Users can browse different images based on tags. This lets you view images just of one tag.

The idea is that I want users to be able to upload Wallpapers, Funny Wallpapers, and Funny images... and if an image falls into 2 of those categories, then users can tags them and they will be displayed when browsing different tags. I have uploaded a few images to get it started / for an example of what tagging can do.

I am still working on making the site/project better and adding more features.

Again, the address is http://imagecollective.sf.net

Thanks

I tried uploading a few of my pics from another website, and succeeded.

That said a special box to paste URL would make it clear to every user this is possible.

(I could not paste an URL/text into the "Upload from disk"-box, instead clicking there opened "upload file"-box from firefox, i could paste the URL there though)

While very functional, what may draw more people to your website will be the aesthetics. The user-interface of facebook is not very good IMO, but it looks very good. It would also be useful to have a search function.
