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?

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).

  • 2 weeks later...

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 :(

Radish?

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. :)

    • What about it? The old MV2 version will not work.
    • Wow, this is some Iran, Cuba, China, Russia, North Korea-level citizen surveillance right there, the UK's government has gone totally mad. Power trip indeed, their politicians are totally out of control about this issue. They're starting to cross limits I wouldn't have imagined, to be honest. British people, fight this, your privacy and freedoms are in danger. Vote this government out of power.
    • Nintendo unveils The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake, and it's out this year by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Confirming many rumors, Nintendo officially announced a remake of the classic The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the very first game in the series that offered a 3D experience to fans. Unlike previous remasters and re-releases, the originally 1998-released fantasy adventure game is being remade from the ground up for the Nintendo Switch 2 console this time. "The Nintendo 64 classic returns for a new generation in 2026, reborn exclusively for Nintendo Switch 2," said the company about today's announcement. While Nintendo didn't go into much detail about the project, other than confirming its existence, we did get a small teaser trailer at the Direct presentation today. Catch the footage below: With a tapestry as the backdrop, the first half of the trailer tells the tale of Hyrule, the Kokiri forest dwellers, and their fairy companions. It goes onto introduce "one particular boy" without a fairy, which then cuts to a sleeping Link, showcasing what looks like the new art style being introduced in the remake. Unfortunately, no gameplay or a look at the world has been revealed yet. The game originally released for the Nintendo 64 back in 1998, offering a time travel adventure where Link is once again going up against the evil king Ganondorf. The hugely well-received title has only been playable on modern Nintendo consoles using the Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake for the Nintendo Switch 2 doesn't have a firm release date yet, but Nintendo says it will be released sometime in 2026. Considering just how many publishers are avoiding the Grand Theft Auto VI release nowadays, the company may copy that strategy and also opt to bring this out before November this year.
