There were some changes in ImageShack web interface, which caused ShackShag to stop working. Hopefully, the new release is doing just fine. You can get it from Google hosting page.

I’d like to thank Wael, Allesio and Yannick for their reports and patch proposals. Guys, I’m sorry it took so long, but I had to face some other challenges in my life.

ShackShag’s code is now hosted in SVN repository provided by Google.

You can find the project’s page at: http://code.google.com/p/shackshag/
Feel free to check out the latest version and mess with it.

Thanks, Google!

By accident, I found out that my little project made its way to Arch Linux repository (package page). Wow! There’s even an account support patch provided, but it doesn’t seem to bring any new functionality.

That’s a really nice way to provide me with motivation! I’ll get back to development as soon as I finish writing my thesis (I expect that to happen by the middle of September). Account support is on top of my to-do list, and I already have working proof-of-concept code. Stay tuned.

I added -r switch which causes removing the size information bar from thumbnails of uploaded images. You can download the script from ShackShag homepage.

ShackShag is a small script allowing you to upload many images to imageshack.us hosting service. It was written in Python and should run on any platform that supports Python interpreter. It’s free software, released under the GPL license.

You’ll find more details and download links on project’s homepage.

ShackShag is still in development, more features are expected soon.
