So we have a few fun changes in this update, you'll notice our Christmas Logos are now live, with the winning logo appearing more frequently than the runner up logos.

Also notice that Pic8.co is now officially the default image retaining/proxy site of poal.co(checkout http://pic8.co/about for details), how do you know its official you might ask? Well other than me telling you, we've gone ahead and with the cooperation of @picman produced a handy dandy little button in the side bar that allows you to upload pics to pic8.co without ever leaving poal!

Finally there have been some improvements to the UI and buttons

So here are the results of the contest. (pic8.co)

1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will each receive a unique badge.

Oh, and one more thing, you'll notice that now all the services poal.co offers other than poal.co are now listed under another new button on the side bar. This one has been requested a few times, so enjoy.

Edit: As always please clear your browsers cache.

Sorry didn't mean to be cryptic! @picman

I'll explain a little more what I was talking about. I searched but can't find it now, but a few months back I read about a new service where you could send someone a message by only sending them a URL. Example "Hey picman, can you swing by my house and delete browser history and smash my hard drives please? Thanks Bro - chronos" - you type that into a web form and it serves you a url like aa.bb/ccde something very short. Then you just send that url to whoever via whatever means. But the deal was, that message is not stored on a server, it was somehow encoded in the URL.

As I was replying I was reminded of encoding binaries to text, then remembered that service and got me thinking about the video thing. If a video was broken down into a shitload of those URLs (or even an image) then you would not even be technically uploading anything. Just really tiny chunks of binaries in encoded text.

Damn just cannot remember the name of that service.

Is that explanation less cryptic?

Interesting, keep looking. I'll see if I can find it. If that's actually a thing, I'd be interested in looking into it further.
