Ask HN: Help testing our email uploader
2 points by dhpmx on July 21, 2009 | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
Hey folks, we're looking for volunteers to test/break our email photo uploader. Please email a jpg photo to hackernews@vivapixel.com and to see what you uploaded go to http://www.vivapixel.com/albums/hackernews We're asking anyone to upload from any email client, web client, iphone, blackberry etc... anything that supports email to send us a jpg.

thanks for your help

PS: Keep the photos PG please !




I understand what you're trying to do, and testing this is important, but I think everyone would be a bit concerned about sending emails which will reveal their email addresses.

Perhaps you could find a more focused user community to test you service?


Good point, I really didn't want to use this as a way of harvesting email addresses, but I can see how you and others could come to this conclusion. I honestly did not want to do this and would never "betray" the folks at hn with some sort of bait and switch move... So please disregard my request, I've already removed the email address and album. Thanks for the heads up !!
