The twitter bootstrap default styles need to go or at least be tweaked into something more personalized.

As it stands it makes the site look very backwater, regardless of features.

I don't think normal people would even notice this. Doesn't mean personalization isn't something that should be done, just thinking you might be overblowing the problem.

I disagree - their target audience is developers, not "normal people". Because bootstrap's default styles have been beaten to death by startup-in-a-weekend type apps, I subconsciously don't trust their service because it seems like it might not be here in a month or two.

What makes you say that?

Say what? That they won't be here in a month or two? I think they definitely will be around, they seem to be ripping up HN lately. All I'm saying is that using bootstrap's default styles tarnishes the brand they are trying to build (which is especially important because their target audience, developers, are very familiar with default bootstrap).

Thanks for the feedback. We are working on it and you will see a more personalized theme on the website in the next 3 weeks.

I do already see some general design improvement on this page compared to some of the earlier ones, good work on that! As for obvious Bootstrapness, I think if you wanted to do something quick & minor with a big impact you could just change that default navbar background.

So exciting! We were able to remove about 400 lines of shit S3 code and an ugly flash widget when moving to filepicker.io. Great to see them adding so many services.

That's awesome. Especially the video recording is perfect for what I'm doing.

As soon as you guys make it so that I can get the video URL as soon as the upload starts I can integrate you in.

I really wish you guys would support a bookmarklet to let you pick pictures on a web page the same way say Pinterest does it.

Interesting suggestion. Could you give me an example use case?

Well if you have an app or website that enables photosharing, you'd want to capture content from offsite and deliver it into your gallery.

Importing stuff from the big sites--Flickr, et al is great, but say someone has everything sitting on their personal webpage or scattered on site around the internet?

Instead of making them save, then re-upload a bookmarklet is great.

I'm working on an app that incorporates outgoing social media messages. If there is a link in the message I hit it on the backend and send a json list of image urls to the user. The user can then flip through them and decide which image to add to their message.

Great job, guys! I've been waiting for the flickr integration!

first of all, awesome.

question: is video recording supported when using the iOS SDK? if yes, great. if no, any timeframe for supporting?

thanks, scott

Hi Scott,

iOS video recording is ready and soon to be shipped. Send me an email for early access: liyan@filepicker.io

Nice addition. Question for the community, what are the thoughts on this approach of iframing the full content (ie filepicker.io's complete app) inside a lightbox vs fully built in JS?

I have a project that I'm about to venture in which will need a similar setup and curious on thoughts.

We're cranking out even more, let us know what you want to see next

I'm really digging the Gmail feature. What about allowing me to pull from my own ftp server?

I'd like a webhook that sends meta data about uploaded photos such as Facebook Ids, people tagged, etc.

Webhooks for when people perform certain file-related actions, like click their filepicker link.

Sweet! I can't wait for more video and general file source options. Keep it up!

i don't get it at all.

what's the value here?

Are you working on Skydrive support?
