I am pretty sure no where does it say on their Terms of Service that porn is not allowed on Dropbox. And Mega is really nice now as well. Neither do the individualized links that you do, but they are definitely a couple alternatives.

I was basing that off an email I got from a model who said her adult content was removed from Dropbox so she was glad to be switching to our site and not having to worry about it, and I got that same email from former Mediafire users several times in the past. I do not know much about mega other than what happened with it's predecessor MegaUpload. In either case you are correct about the code thing, a link from any other service can be posted anywhere and your content stolen directly from the same source your customers get it from.
Nobody has been using MD5 or SHA1 to store passwords for a long time, it's too easy to crack. If your database is leaked, the attacker would get the passwords in less than an hour.mired said:because it's stored as a MD5 hash which is a pretty standard practice.

And sending a plain-text password in an AJAX request on a not-HTTPS connection is not secure either. You should at least send them over an HTTPS connection or hash them on the client-side (hint: https://code.google.com/p/javascript-bcrypt/ ).
I think you mean if that member reports it as porn or more accurately 'flags' it then it may disappear from the models directory due to dropbox taking action. Just a member deleting the file on their dropbox won't deleted it in the models account. Dropbox doesn't work that way. If I send you a link for a file you can add it to your dropbox account and do whatever you wish with it because an actual copy will be placed in your account.KamikaziKitty said:A random answer to why that model's dropbox vids disappeared. If she sent the link to the vids to a member's dropbox and THAT MEMBER deletes it from their dropbox it will be deleted from ALL dropboxes that link has been sent to. I deal with dropbox daily when it comes to IRL modelling and this is a common occurence and probably one of the biggest calls we get from other models when dealing with their sets being sent to them.
Edited to Add: I personally still use camredeem because it is very straightforward and has been the easiest thing to use when sending videos. I really do appreciate the camredeem site immensely.
HollieCakes said:Also ladies, is anyone using CamRedeem to share content on MyGirlFund yet? Do you know if it's allowed?
NoelleBright said:HollieCakes said:Also ladies, is anyone using CamRedeem to share content on MyGirlFund yet? Do you know if it's allowed?
Its not allowed. I've tried and it flags the message and it won't go through.
I even sent support a message about it explaining to them how CamRedeem works and how its anonymous, etc, and they did not seem too keen on the idea of even hearing me out about it. I really wish they would add it to the list of video hosts they allow because I can't stand MediaFire or DropBox, but I'm not gonna hold my breath.

Now google drive does work the way you're mentioning though. There if I 'share' a file with you then that file will show in your Drive as being shared. If I give you full edit access to the file you can change it or even delete it and it will delete on mine as well. That's one thing i hate about Drive. If I'm given access to a file don't be deleting it just because the original owner chose to get rid of it on their end. The way around that is to set sharing permissions to 'view' only, not edit.
KamikaziKitty said:Hmmm, that has not been my experience but since I am the assistant to the photographer I am getting the files second hand and usually have to have him re-link them to me. Nothing that was sent photographywise would have been flagged as pornographic as most of these files are fashion industry related, commercial shoots, or the digital version of printed family portraits. Maybe I should shoot dropbox support an email about this issue (maybe I'm dealing with a weird glitch? I'm not code/computer savvy by any stretch of the means so just shooting in the dark here).
Okay. Learn something new every day. I've never used that shared folder option. Always just created a folder on my own computer for files and let the sync software do all the uploading. So i've only ever just sent out links, not sharing stuff.ashtyn_rain said:Yes you can. You have to invite someone to your shared folder - the folder with the rainbow button.

If I got a certain of followers or something I would post a link wih only 10 downloads and whoever got their first won. Am I thinking of something else...
Hi! The Promo code feature never seems to work for me. I send out a link to 5 people and only the first one gets the video. Is there any way to fix this?mired said:Liliana_Rayne said:I just started using this again, and I thought I remembered you being able to set how many times a link could be downloaded.

This feature is called "Promo Code". There should be a button to create a promo code right on the main file view.

You people needs some tutorials about how to encode videos because that is crazy. That's more than half the size a decent movie in HD on a torrent website for only 20mn of video.Isabella_deL said:I have one which I'd like to upload, in one file it's 2.97GB and is a 20 minute video.

"TrueHD" just means the video resolution is 1920×1080p. The other important parameter is the bitrate, and it seems many models are choosing to encode their videos with a bitrate way too high, especially since the type of content produced is rarely a fast paced action movie, but rather a fixed camera with a static background which doesn't require a high bitrate.
I really wish I could, but this is really not my domain of expertise. I just can tell you something is wrong with such numbers.Isabella_deL said:eclipse76 said:You people needs some tutorials about how to encode videos because that is crazy.

Please teach me. I don't even know what encoding is. The times I've tried to make my better quality videos smaller sizes the quality has gone down dramatically.
Yes. Other models have been tweeting about it being down as well.CuteHerminie said:Is CamRedeem down? I host my videos there and i didn't consider a second option in case it didn't work, so i can't sell videos currently.
