That's a calc project I want to get done. (Might be my last ever.) I have notes written down for it, but that's all I got finished so far.

It'll probably be my last project ever and I want it to be in Axe. If I have too many issues with Axe then I'll just have to make a Basic version (probably with CIII for the advanced memory management) but it'll definitely be something with features for gameplay that haven't been done on a calculator yet. Whether it'll be as fun as I imagine or not is yet to be seen.

Otherwise, it's a secret. ;P

I wish you good luck on both this and the image uploader. For the uploader, tho, make sure to back your stuff up often, including rfg and the generator, in case ppl upload crap while you're busy and 1and1 takes your site down.

Hm... what could someone upload that would make 1and1 shut the site down?
I can limit it to just picture files and have a max file size no problem.

Well, my concern is if the uploader gets leaked outside Omni and some trolls starts uploading porn, goatse and even worse stuff. Just saying it could become out of control

Hm... true. I'll definitely have to keep an eye out on images uploaded there. I have an idea for how to handle it.
For the first month or so we'll just have to try our best to keep it only at omnimaga while I work on the code to help me moderate it.

Yeah that's what I thought, personally.

Of course a report innapropriate content button could  help, but I am sure some pics will go unnoticed.

Yeah, with how it would be set up first, it'll just be a page with an uploader then when you upload something, there will be a page that shows the picture and a link to the picture so no one can see what the other pictures are.

Then I can have it email me whenever a picture is uploaded and I can delete anything harmful myself.
Afterwards, I'll get together a 'thumbnail' script to make some thumbnails like imageshack does.

Another idea is that later, I can have a gallery of everything uploaded that anyone can look through then add the report button. (nice thought actually)

Though, I don't think we'll have to go that far.

Aaah ok. What if you became 10x more busy than you are now, though?

Otherwise, I guess it could work, though.

True... I could get more busy easily.
The fastest way would be to get a volunteer mod or just really hope that nothing bad happens for a year or two while I'm still in college.

Yeah a mod could be an idea too. You would just need to make sure he remains active. My idea would be to allow him to get notified of new content at least once per day or something so he won't forget to check regulary.
