RateMeSQL

I've been working on a modified version of ImageSQL, which will let you run a site similar to http://www.hotornot.com.

You can find out more in my main thread here: http://www.ultranerds.com/...rum.cgi?post=404#404

The price is $600US, or if you already have a LinksSQL license, then the price is $400 (please note, you cannot use the same license for a LinksSQL installation, as well as a RateMeSQL installation.

If you already have a LinksSQL license, and are interested in this new product, please send me a PM , or email andy@ultranerds.com, as a discount can be aranged for you.

I will be putting up a real demo this afternoon, but I need my lunch break first :)

Cheers

Had a sneak look at the demo last night - looks really good.
Will work well for someone wanting that kind of site.

Version 1.0.1 is out now. This has a lot more features than version 1.0.0. The bulk of these extra features are outlined below;

1) Ability to let your users show their image on their site, via an IFRAME... thus increasing your potential site visits.
2) Cleaned up the templates a little, in preperation of designing another few sets.
3) Show Male or Show Female links, so that only one type is shown (can be category specific too)
4) When someone votes for an image on the detailed page, they don't need to submit the form any more, as its all done automatically (i.e once they choose a rating, it submits the form for them)
5) You can now show how many people have been active in the xx last hours.
6) Recommend a picture - This lets your visitors recommend a picture to someone via email. Again, great for traffic building.
7) PostCards script has been setup, so people can send a postcard of someones picture.
8) Ability to run in dynamic mode, whilst still looking static (gives you the advantage that the records are as up-to-date as possible, when you have people viewing your site)
9) Duplicate ratings limited (if they have rated, they will see "You have rated this image already..".
10) Top 5 rated pictures (shown on the front page of the demo).

You can also see the demo here: (static feel, although its running with mod_rewrite); http://demo.ace-installer.com/ratemesql/

Thats about it.. but keep an eye out for the new template sets :)
