COMMENTS

i’ve taken the code, gave it a makeover and added some bling (templating and sorting). trying to give it some class to allow a user to add titles/descriptions with a YAML file.

http://www.halvfet.com/fuckflickr_test

i’ll try to get an archive of the code once i’m done with the YAML file coding.

halvfet added these pithy words on Mar 08 08 at 9:11 pm

finished the yaml, added in gif and png support.

damn son, you tore that mother up!

I checked in a branch with your code and will be merging it into trunk after some review. We’ll be at 2.0 before 1.0 is even really released :)

jamie dubs added these pithy words on Mar 11 08 at 10:09 am

And who is owning the images here?
Or: Who should you buy?

I suggest to think about a decentralized or peer2peer-based storage-solution.

wetterfrosch added these pithy words on Mar 27 08 at 8:19 am

It’s on your server. It’s all yours.

P2P backup/shared storage is kind of interesting though. I’m also a core developer on the Hydra torrent tracker, which supports federation — my hydra talks to your hydra, and they both share active torrents. It makes sense for torrents, but less so for photos — you want as many people as possible to download the torrent and keep it alive, but I might not want people to be getting my dope photos at your site. ;)

jamie dubs added these pithy words on Mar 31 08 at 2:33 pm

Where can i download the halvfet version of the fuck flickr gallery again?

Thomas added these pithy words on Apr 15 08 at 12:59 pm

Halvfet version is currently in final testing phases, expect a real release soon.

If you want to experiment I’ve put a copy of the latest code here:

jamie dubs added these pithy words on Apr 15 08 at 1:11 pm

Thanks jamie!

I am from the Dutch Art, Design & Webmagazine Fontanel.
We have a lot of photogallery’s on our site (like this:http://www.fontanel.nl/gallery/le_art/)

our next step is to make a gallery overview. we’ll be looking at the wonderfully simple fuckflickr gallery!

i’ll keep you updated if we manage to complete it!

Thomas added these pithy words on Apr 15 08 at 1:32 pm

support the sentiment whole hardily and the software. I’m d/l’ing and psyched to install it.
But I find it bothersome that fat labs then participates in Synthetic Times; a Bejing exploitation of the new media art world for their own agenda, in anticipation of the olympics. If you boycott one, shouldn’t the other be obvious?

splnlss added these pithy words on Apr 29 08 at 9:45 am

If it makes you feel any better we just got kicked out of Synthetic Times because we refused to censor our work. We were hoping to use that exhibition as a platform to talk about some of these issues.

evan added these pithy words on Apr 29 08 at 1:11 pm

my apologies and due respect!

hey a database isn’t required, but if i want to use one can i?

senses3 added these pithy words on Sep 30 08 at 12:07 pm

@senses3: no support for MySQL et al, but there is a simple textfile you can edit to add titles, descriptions, and tags (and CSS)

jamie dubs added these pithy words on Oct 01 08 at 10:56 am

flickr kill my art. I am a photographer and use flickr across the last 4 years. In the last Two years, yahoo and flickr censored all my pictures and my user. Now 2800 pictures from my sets are deleted. I fight for my digniti and flickr never help me, always kill my work. If you are interested in my problem visit my mutilated acound: wweeggee

I’ve thrown it all up online and it works until I put an image in there and then it goes all php error on my ass. Any help from anyone who understands code?

allan corbett added these pithy words on Jan 07 09 at 4:15 pm

when using FTP, do a chmod on the /data directory by setting the permissions to 0777. that will allow you to create/edit new directories and files.

halvfet added these pithy words on Jan 07 09 at 4:37 pm

That didn’t work – it changed the error. I started again with a fresh download and install and it’s still showing errors. I changed ALL permissions to 0777

allan corbett added these pithy words on Jan 08 09 at 10:44 am

allan,

shoot me an email at contact [at] halvfet [dot] com with those new errors and maybe i can walk you through it better.

halvfet added these pithy words on Jan 08 09 at 10:55 am

Update: It’s playing nicely some sort of host problem.

Is there a Flickr ripper available that dumps to this data format? If not, I’d be happy to code one up (I’ve been meaning to do so for a while)

nf added these pithy words on Feb 17 09 at 9:25 pm

Wow! Can I get this on my phone? I’m using Opera Mini and have issues with everything Y!

Dennis added these pithy words on Mar 23 09 at 3:53 pm

Specifically, I need the .jar file…?

Dennis added these pithy words on Mar 23 09 at 4:35 pm

Dennis, this project is written in PHP and is to be ran on a web hosting server, not from your computer, phone, or other handheld device.

If you want to use it on your phone, you can download the script, upload it to your web server, style it out for your phone by adding a handheld/iphone stylesheet, an open it in a web browser on your phone. =)

halvfet added these pithy words on Mar 23 09 at 4:47 pm

nf, no, there is not one yet. we would be thrilled if you did.

is there any way to incorporate a simple php uploader or is it just for ftp? actually, fuck it. it works fine the way it is. much <3 guys.

Hey! Can one of you guys adapt this for Opera Mini? It’s (if you’re not familiar with it) a JAVA app. for cellphones. This would be so cool, as we have our own issues with Y!
 There are +/- 20 million of us. Even if half used fuckflicker it’d be pretty cool,no?

I mean the third. I don’t know how to do the third step.

Will added these pithy words on Jul 12 09 at 9:36 pm

@Will, After you’ve uploaded the scripts and images to your web server, just navigate to the folder via your browser. That’s all it is saying.

samuel added these pithy words on Jul 13 09 at 1:41 am

Hi – I coded up an import from flickr. You put in your username and it rips everything from flickr down to your fuckflickr install.

It’s available at: http://svn.morelightmorelight.com/trunk/personal/fflickr/

Flickr_Lube – because sometimes you need a little help to fuck flickr.

Compare my flickr site with my fuckflickr here:
http://flickr.com/photos/snarkhunt

Matt Katz added these pithy words on Jul 28 09 at 7:21 am

Also – it’s in ruby – if that’s cool with you guys, feel free to include it in the fuckflickr base.

Matt Katz added these pithy words on Jul 28 09 at 7:22 am

Any idea why it turns all my portrait photos to lanscape?

cheers

cruz added these pithy words on Aug 24 09 at 9:35 am

Hmm! Disregard, It looks like some weird automator bug.

cruz added these pithy words on Aug 24 09 at 9:56 am

No, no bug, it ladscapes them. Where can I control that?

cruz added these pithy words on Aug 24 09 at 10:02 am

To wweeggee and others considering using Flickr or any other such site. Another reason why your should not depend on such sites is they control what goes up. After all, like it or not, it’s their site. Always best to get your own site, then you decide what goes up.

Scott added these pithy words on Aug 25 09 at 10:41 pm

Hey guys. I finally wrote a python script to rip photos from Flickr to a local MySQL database. There’s also a script that’ll convert those photos into a QDig-compatible photo library. Sadly, it doesn’t do the Fuck Flickr format (as I don’t use it), but it should be pretty trivial for someone to make the necessary modifications.

Hope this helps.

hi.. tried installing.. but i cant find the info.yml file .. and i how do i create a different gallery?

Jed added these pithy words on Apr 13 10 at 3:17 pm

@Jed, in your FTP program, make a new folder in the data folder and upload images in there.

Then load the page in your browser and it will create the .yml file and thumbnails and shit automatically.

thank you very much!

Mr. Spamalot added these pithy words on Jul 14 10 at 11:51 am

uhh. this is just another image gallery. there are so many out there with better support and features and open source too. unlike those, however, this one is using bad yahoo media sensation to promote themselves.

oh who am i kidding. it works! the audience is lapping it all up. congrats.

maybe you should replace facebook whilst you’re at it. i heard they are hosting images too.
