PSharing.com (a.k.a. ivPicture.hu) is a Hungarian image sharing service. Since its start in 2007, it has hosted more than 830,000 pictures (as of March 2015).

Vital signs

Technical issues

Recently troublesome. Since 2015-07-01, no images can be uploaded due to some configuration problem server-side (permission error). No response to error reports so far. Also, accessing already uploaded images was hardly possible for a few days (timeouts, probably server side resource problem), but that has been fixed since.

Administrator activity

Their Facebook page is often updated. Not with technical info, though.

Financial status

The company Hajdina Bt. behind the site had been performing well for years, last year (2014) they had some loss, though.

Content

Most of the uploaded pictures seem to be original user content (e.g. photos, screenshots).

As of March 2015, more than 830,000 pictures have been uploaded.

The site also provides an album function, but it's not too popular: there are less than 500 albums, with just a few pictures in most of them.

Site structure

Incrementing numbers are assigned to the uploaded pictures. There are public and not public pictures, but knowing the ID, every picture is accessible. (Non-public pictures are not shown in the image-browser.) All images seem to have jpg extension.

Although the site is accessible through both the domains psharing.com and ivpicture.hu, the links provided to images contain ivpicture.hu, and the files are physically stored there, too.

To be saved:

This way, besides all versions of the pictures, the most often used URLs[1] are saved along with their 18+ confirmation pages (they could be skipped using cookies, not doing so is intentional). Page requisites must already be present in the Archive.

Private and public pictures

Public pictures are those that appear in the image browser (http://psharing.com/pic.php). Those not appearing are the private pictures, so an index of both the public and private pictures can be created with some discovery. However, the page mentioned above shows new pages by scrolling, one at a time. This cannot be processed automatically. However, the appearing pages can be accessed directly and separately on http://psharing.com/pic_new.jq.php?page=0, where the page parameter starts from 0 showing most recent public pictures, and goes up to cca. 11600 (as of April 2015).

Archiving status

Wayback Machine has only a few thousand pages archived.

user:bzc6p has started archiving all the uploaded pictures. Though, he differentiates public and private ones, and tries to handle them accordingly.[2]

Only pictures are being saved. As albums are two dimensionally incremental and maybe less important things, they will be saved only when the website enters the Endangered or the Closing phase.

Notes

  1. If we don't differentiate between www.example.com and example.com – the Wayback Machine doesn't, either –, then everything is saved, otherwise a small portion of the shared URLs are not saved in their exact form.
  2. An archive of private pictures will be made, but probably darkened, that is, hidden from publicity. Discussion: http://archive.fart.website/bin/irclogger_log/archiveteam-bs?date=2015-04-02,Thu&sel=148#l144
