I'm thinking of starting my own images host.
but would it be smart.
I don't know how much I will allow to be uploaded. max filesize will be 0,5Mb.
The current scripts I wrote will inform me about new signups.
then i can accept or reject them.
but when I accept a user he could upload 0,5Mb parts of illegal files.
I would only be able to see whats going on when I'm online.
I was thinking of a system to validate those uploaded files, and then allow public access to them.
but when I'm not online I can't accept/reject files.
so are there any ideas on how to setup an images host that is 'secure'
I could create a script which will get the file from a secure directory and log the size, and so limit the amout of traffic.
but when there is a small file, used a lot, I need to log all those requests. which will make everything run slow.
