I made a dark theme for Catbox. I wasn’t satisfied with the current theme, but didn’t want to force any changes. So now you can choose.

I’m late on announcing it but I got a SSL Certificate from Let’s Encrypt. Soooo HTTPS is enabled on all Catbox related things now. Most things will get redirected to using the HTTPS version, but anything that uses direct links like to api.php will remain unchanged for now.

Well, after about 11 months now, Catbox has come a far way. 54~ thousand files, totaling to about 100 GB. I decided a while ago that once I hit the 100 GB mark that I would have to upgrade my plan, since I don’t think my host would let me get away with what I’m paying for my current level of usage.

What that means is the cost to run Catbox will increase by, well, a lot compared to what I was paying. But it’s not so much that I can’t pay on my own. I still won’t ask for donations, and I have no intentions of adding advertisements (like some people have advised me to). Donations would be a last ditch effort to try and save a burning ship, and at current levels Catbox can survive for a good while.

Anyway, Catbox will be down from approximately 12 PM to 1 AM (PST). I tried to pick a day and time when I had the lowest usage, but I’d still be awake to monitor the transfer. File uploading will be disabled during the whole process, while access to uploaded files will be temporarily interrupted. The planned positives to all this are: Increased dedicated power, SSL/HTTPs, increased flexibility with how I can handle the server, and (planned) Cloudflare  haha nope.

Update 3/5 1:30 AM: Well it’s not screaming anymore. Took a little bit longer than I expected but everything seems to be in working order. Mail server is still shitting the bed, so contact requests will be redirected until I unfuck it.

Update 3/5 7:20 PM: The mail server is working again. Email providers might detect it as spam for a while until I iron out all the formalities.

I implemented fancyBox on the view page. I think it looks nice. I also made it look a little better on mobile. I’m still not satisfied with how Catbox generally acts on mobile, but I don’t really have the drive to make a dedicated mobile subsite. To be honest I’m looking into redesigning the page as a whole, but I have terrible design skills.

Happy New Years too.

In a (half hearted) effort to save space, I’ve added duplicate detection to Catbox. If you notice any bugs, be sure to report them. <3

There’s now an API for Catbox. Currently it can only accept file uploads and can be used as a URL uploader. I’ve also released a Chrome extension that adds an “Upload to Catbox” button on the context menu of any image, video, or audio. Both of these are fairly new features, and are subject to change and limits, so be posted. All of these and the ShareX code have been consolidated onto the Tools page.
