To keep Warez-DnB as intact as possible I’ve decided to launch http://images.warez-dnb.com/ a free image hosting service for all our members to use when making new posts. (We do monitor this folder, anything that’s upload that isn’t an image will be swiftly deleted). As we trust it will be used for the purpose its been created.

Enter an image host whitelist, this basically only displays images from websites that are on the list, in the case of Warez-DnB images will not only be displayed if they are hosted on.

http://images.warez-dnb.com/
http://www.warez-dnb.com/

If the image isn’t hosted on one of the above services a URL will take its place.

I’ve decided to do this because its really annoying when you browse a forum and there are dead image links, its also annoying for other hosts to have their bandwidth effectively leeched off them from a totally different website, which usually leads to them banning the offending site.

Warez-DnB is a project my flatmate and I are working on. Currently we have 35 members, this is a Rapidshare link exclusive forum that is for various music; Breakbeat, Dubstep, Hip Hop, Electronic and Mixes

To get this forum online there where a few challenges, first we needed to find a host that would allow rapidshare links. http://altushost.com/ provided this.

Secondly we wanted guests to be able to view the forum and pages, but have the links hidden (forcing them to register).

This turned out to be pretty simple as well, searching for any instance of

‘tag’ => ‘code’,

On the line below it will say

‘content’ => ‘

‘ . $txt['code'] . ‘: ‘ . $txt['code_select'] . ‘

$1‘,

After “‘content’ => ”
Add $user_info['is_guest'] ? ‘Register to see codes!’ :

So it will look like this

‘content’ => $user_info['is_guest'] ? ‘Register to see codes!’ : ‘

‘ . $txt['code'] . ‘: ‘ . $txt['code_select'] . ‘

$1‘,

We’re still busy working on a LinkChecker mod written in Ruby, but the website is doing pretty well. If you like Drum & Bass you can become a member for free at. http://www.warez-dnb.com/index.php?action=register
