upload now accepts .jpeg files
Category: estrip

I made it so the multifile upload now accepts .jpeg files as facebook seems to stupidly export pictures from their galleries with that extension. You can also upload 20 files at time now.

Well it used to be 20 but then with the new version it became 10. The most I could ever upload was 11 if I tried 12 they all wouldn't upload (guessing my computer would time out or something I don't understand).

I assumed .jpeg where included since they are one of the many different kind of picture files, but I was wrong, glad they can be uploaded now, that could be why a long time ago (years) why I couldn't up load some photos? Glad for the two updates.

I thought you could always upload 20 at once.

estrip.com is finally ours
Category: web

After years of trying to get ownership of it. We now own estrip.com. No more worries about it turning into a porn site. It cost a good chunk of change but I think in the long run it was worth protecting our assets by owning the .com.

For now estrip.com just redirects to estrip.org. I think it will probably stay that way as I am not going to reprint the bumpster magnets and seeing as we are non commercial it makes more sense.

The most creative story about it was when (e:twisted) wrote to the former owner - who we will never mention again by name or company as part of the purchase contract - to say her name was Ester Stripinopolous and that she was looking to purchase the domain back in like 2004 or 2005.

I still think that could have worked! (If that guy hadn't been so freakin' heartless.)

Congratulations! My (e:strip) bumper sticker is now 100% legit. (Not that there's anything wrong with being illegitimate...)

I fully support and am willing to contribute to an x-rated version of estrip.

tinypliny - 08/16/10 18:00
Ester Stripinopolous LOL

metalpeter - 08/16/10 17:56
Ah man no X-rated Version now I have no reason to try out multiple ads in the back of artvoice, hey I would need to people one for the fun and one to photo it, HA..... It is good you own both you wouldn't want some other site confussing people...................

samathon86 - 08/16/10 17:39

libertad - 08/16/10 15:18
Are you sure you don't want to make an X rated version of estrip.org?

jim - 08/16/10 15:15

Much Better Mobile Site
Category: mobile

I really revamped the mobile site to work well on both the iphone 3g (iOS) and nexus one (android). If you get a chance try it out, should be much easier to manipulate with fingers than it was before. Sadly, the lame iphone cannot upload in the browser like the android phone I am posting this from.

Estrip 8 - now live
Category: estrip8

This is my first test post from estrip8. I am sure there are a ton of issues seeing as I programmed it piecemeal over the last 6 years about 2 hours a week and have scrapped and restarted over a bunch of times. It does not necessarily represent a lot of new features, but rather brings it up to date with my surebert framework so that I can more easily add new features and fixes in the future. Hope you enjoy it.

Sorry about the lack of themes. I will create them shortly. I have some already in production.

Hey (e:Paul), I can't seem to find the RSS feed for the site.
The site looks good! And fast too (judging from the float number at the top)

libertad - 06/14/10 23:38
I really enjoy the new version. Today is the first day I really got to try it out. It seems so much faster.

I tried to sign in from my Roswell computer but it wouldn't let me. Maybe it is cause they use Internet Explorer?

jim - 06/13/10 19:05
Congrats Paul!

heidi - 06/13/10 01:28
Congrats! Thank you for putting so much work into it, Paul.

Android Application Update
Category: android

You can now simply select estrip share from any menu that supports text sharing including the link sharing in the browser and other apps such as engadget. If you see their is an update for the estrip app, just update. If however, you do not see an update, please delete and download from the marketplace. I lost my private key last week and had to restart a new app in the marketplace, although it has the same name.
