I know there are alternatives, but I had nothing better to do last night so I put this together.

It will stick around unless people seriously abuse it.

mh this should be a sticky note
There’s also uploader.polorix.net. You have to register, but any file type is supported, and size limit it 200 MB. Generates thumbnail images as well.
Thanks M.A.
yeah thats a good one. im not trying to compete with anybody.
Polorix is profile based, and mine is just something very fast and simple. The idea of it is not having to login or register to share your work. google like minimum interface. all file formats supported
M.A,
The service is there for you to use only if you want to. Personaly I just want to upload a file to link to others. I have no interest in registering, having to login, or owning an account.
Any site can be hacked, and having a login system makes it no more secure. In fact its less secure because personal information is stored.
“you will be hacked,
people will upload viruses disguised as .jpeg’s or whatever,
people will upload other peoples work,
your server will crash.”
This is true for any file hosting service.
My only TOS is use comon sense. You can get a virus anywhere on the internet. If you place porn on the site it will be removed. Its impossible to track all users and data no mater what kind of security you enforce but i will do my best to keep it clean.
I don’t know what you mean by the name is an ad. I had to title it something, blender space seemed appropriate. the domain buysmartpc.com has no commercial product or value, not even a functional root site.
I don’t care if nobody uses the service i put up. But i didnt think i would get flamed for it.
hey, as I said,
I am just making a point as to problems others before you have encountered.
As these problems have been encountered by many people with the best intentions.
Having a email first log in, whilst a trivial hassle for some can actually help to safeguard both you and your site. The former blender model repository got into legal trouble to the tune of $3000 & the replacement repository was hacked to its near ruination.
My post was intended to warn you of the problems you may encounter, so if you think you can do it, go for it.
sorry for the misunderstanding.
Files are stored in a database to avoid file name conflicts. Only I am able to delete them, and I will clear them out after 30 or so days.
I should implement a way for users to mark inappropriate content for me to check out and remove.
Your intentions maybe were good and for the benefit of infurno but, Meta-androcto, be cautious of your wording, it offends, caution is needed on forums, that’s all. Thanks for editing your post! I will PM you!
It is good to see that the site now has covered some issues.
Good luck with the uploader, great for posting quick images.
M.A.
On the record,
Meta-Androcto, I think you were out of line with your post and found it offensive.
I appreciate your support grafixsuz, and everyone else.
have fun
hi Infurno,
I hope I have not caused you too much undue distress and do sincerely wish you all the best.
I have deleted most of my replies to your post and edited the rest so it is more acceptable both to you and the Blender Artists Forums members that were unfortunate enough to read them.
I will also post this pm publicly so as to try to make things right with you.
Sincerely, Brendon.
