Yeah, still the same behavior as before. I haven't found anything that triggers the bug, All I know is minimizing to the tray and pulling the window back up, makes the rectangle go away :(

hmm guess i'll have to keep looking into it.

Getting the white box Mike, could you provide an option not to have transparency for the main window?

Radish™

the transparency is in the PNG skin files so unless i have a second copy of the skin, no.

give me some details on your setup Radish and if you can, when it turns completely white. I'm still rather stumped why it should turn white. The window disappearing i'd possibly understand or maybe completely black but not white. For example, the shadow around the window just turns black when over a hardware video overlay (something i cant do anything about)

Can you add a text file in the localhostr folder of all the uploads you make for recovery purposes, e.g. you uploaded some stuff but deleted it from the ‘recently uploaded files’ and want to find a link for it after awhile…

I'd rather not, for most people it would just be a pointless text file. If you want to keep a link dont remove it from the history or make a note of it yourself :p

Oh and get digging (link in post above somewhere)

I'm on Windows XP with SP3 (hardware specs are in my blog). When I run the app, the window will stay normal for a few seconds then turn white - I have to end the app via Task Manager as it becomes unresponsive.

Radish?

if it does it every time without fail, fancy zipping up the directory its in (if its portable version you're using) or %APPDATA%\localhostr uploadr (if its the installer version) and sending it me?

feel free to remove the password hash from the config :)

Mac users: would you prefer a dashboard widget or a full blown app? Some of the features requested would simply be easier to do in a full app.

With a full app, the features would be on par with the Windows version. However, it would take much longer to code, maybe a few months.

dashboard widget would be good if possible, but whatever is easier for you guys

I'd prefer a full blown app as I don't use dashboard. I hate having it open cause it sucks up RAM. :/

Personally, Simon a dashboard widget makes more sense to me. All I want to do, is drag an image to my dashboard, drop it, and copy it. I don't see the need to have a fully blown application, do complete these simple tasks. If registration yields a web interface to see and manage all images uploaded - that'd be great. I do also use Skitch, which provides this kind of functionality and more, for work, which I would see as a competitor, should you go down the route of labouring towards a fully blown application.

How could you differentiate, from Skitch, if you were to look towards a desktop application?

Is it too much to ask for both? :whistle:

If so, I guess I'd prefer a dashboard widget over a full-blown app.

The idea wouldn't be so much a "full" application as it would a "mini" one ;)

Many widget attributes, but much more powerful. Really, the Windows widget with some OS X UI elements applied. The beta testers have all been sent a copy of my idea (and the beta program is currently full, however PM me if you want and I will contact you when I'm ready to handle more participants).

just a quick heads up seeing as some people still use this topic for updates/reporting things, I won't be around here so if you find any problems from now on (windows version only) use the form at http://localhostruploadr.com/bugs/ otherwise I wont see it, and so nothing will be done about it :p

Who makes the interface skin? Possible to ask them for an opaque version?

Tried it again today (since last time I've had new HDD's installed, so a clean install as well), went white again :(

NOOO!!!!!.... the Windows mirror is down. =(

links fixed, been changing how my site is coded (where it gets the links from and for some reason it broke)

i'm on working on a partial rewrite on the drawing code currently (and adding some stuff for Win7) so once it's in a working state with the new code i'll send you a copy.

Why thank you very much. Can't wait to see how much easier this little app makes my online experience. :)

    • This application is a scam. You can accomplish what this application does for free, if it actually even works which I doubt, with free applications. Do not support scams like this.
    • Frankly, I have found my experience to be the complete opposite from yours. For example, I have a nice, high-end ASUS Xonar Essence STX sound card installed - I've had it for 15+ years. Not one single Windows installation from Windows 7 through to 11 has ever detected it. Ever. However, every single Linux distribution has had drivers for it automatically in its kernel. I have never had to install them myself. And the Windows driver issues that plague this card (look up ASUS Xonar screeching) have never existed in Linux. As far as graphics and games and whatnot - I have an AMD Radeon card, so everything runs smooth as butter. Folks who complain and whine about Linux not working because they are using Nvidia cards shouldn't really blame Linux, but Nvidia. But frankly, Nvidia drivers for Linux work much better now. Maybe it's been a few years since you tried out a Linux distribution? I find that Windows, which treated me like a 4-year old with ADHD with all its constant nagging and suggestions everywhere in the apps I would run, was just not for me anymore. I know, Windows is very mature. But to say Linux is in its infancy is simply not true.
    • 5000X3D never supported overclocking https://www.neowin.net/news/of...o-the-ryzen-7-5800x3d-soon/ also the X in Ryzen chips was originally meant to indicate chips that had a higher XFR (eXtended Frequency Range) compared to non-X chips. (now XFR is generally referred to as PBO)

    • AMD 9800X3D, the best gaming CPU, on sale for just $472 with a free 1TB NVMe SSD by Sayan Sen AMD's Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor is currently the best gaming CPU in the world, and it is currently up for sale for a great price (purchase link under the specs list below). AMD's main rival in the processor market, Intel, is also having discounts at the moment on the Core i5-14600K and 12600K for less than $200 so have a look at those if you don't have the budget for a 9800X3D. Built on the Zen 5 microarchitecture, AMD's 9000X3D desktop processors including the 9800X3D feature 2nd Gen 3D V-cache. The performance of the processor is top-notch. Neowin reviewed the 9950X3D which is also based on the same architecture and found that the 9000X3D part was consistently ahead of the previous gen 7950X3D in almost everything except efficiency, and we already know how good the 7000 series (Zen 4) was, as it was already beating Intel.
