Finally, I have a working BETA of my new Image Based Steemit App Project... I know, I know, took me long enough! Well... hey... I've been busy! Special Thanks to @jamtaylor for getting my ass in gear!
If your just too excited and rather go check it out now instead of read the "blah blah blah" here's the link: http://steem.cool/IMGManager/ or http://Steemit.pics
STEEMIMG
So... as you all know Steemimg (my dedicated steemit image hosting website) stopped accepting uploads right around the time steemit launched its built-in image hosting, ( which was AWESOME of them to do btw!) simply because steemimg had become completely unneeded, why have images in multiple places taking up precious and expensive space on multiple servers for no reason. It was hard for me to do since I absolutely loved my app and it seemed to be loved by a lot of users (sure did have a lot of images on it, and still does!) but it would have just cost too much in the long run! So this leads me to building out this little but powerful app.

As usual I tried to create a app that is both user friendly and pleasing to the eye. With a very minimalist approach, I tried to create a tool that would allow steemit users & non users to navigate, experience, & view images by you or any user on the platform. This really opens up a new way to experience a blog via just its imagery, photography, art, animation etc... It also creates an easy way to see all of your own images used (since steemit started hosting images) on blog posts for ease of using them again via embed codes found the view image page or just simple curiosity.
I have a lot of ideas on where to go with this but for now wanted to open it up (pre accounts phase) to a BETA in order to work out any kinks or bugs it might have. So any help would be awesome, leave comments below or reach out to me on steemit.chat
Stay Tuned & Enjoy the Beta!
Here are some awesome screenshots from the app ;)
