immio - An image uploader

Hey folks,

I've been waiting to post this for some time now. Since ompldr died not too long ago (RIP!), I've been on the hunt for a new imagebin, and one of the things I loved so much about ompldr was the ability to use `omploader` to upload to it from the command line. I soon stumbled upon imm.io and discovered that their API was dead simple. As I am fairly new to learning C, I figured this would be a perfect project. Sadly, their servers had some errors for a while, so I was unable to correctly test some of this programs functions until tonight; hence why this is being posted tonight rather than half a week ago.

Lo, and behold! immio! At the moment, it only uploads an image to imm.io, and returns a link (and optionally some extra information about the image), however, I have contacted upstream about some possible simple API changes that could allow for some post-uploading image-management (e.g., renaming the image or deleting it). Either way, I feel this is finally stable enough to share in its most basic form. I welcome all comments and suggestions!

The source is hosted on my github.

All the best,

-HG

Nice project, I'm sure, but this bit from imm.io faq is quite discouraging: however if an image is wider than 1600 pixels or higher than 4000 pixels we will scale it down to fit that size.

As someone with wider resolution than 1600px, I don't think I'll use this service.

Perfectly understandable. Personally, my resolution is higher as well so there is a tradeoff, but I have yet to find another imagebin which is as simple to use. If you're familiar with one, please let me know!

All the best,
