Ty! The website is available at https://tagpalette.com/ and it is still in development. Some described functionalities like “color psychology” will be available in a few weeks.
The actual file size limit of the portal is 1GB. SkyTransfer file size limit is ~700MB. Since the encrypted data are Base64 encoded and the Base64 encoding has an overhead of 33%, the encrypted data are correspondingly larger compared to the unencrypted data. This limit will be increased as soon as possible.
> minimal storage period
Files uploaded to Skynet will remain available as long as a portal pins the skyfile (agrees to pay from it). The rule-of-thumb for a minimum time is 3 months, but this will vary from portal to portal and could depend on if you have a user account with the portal. You can pin files yourself by running your own portal, and any portal can pin any file that already exists on the network. https://support.siasky.net/key-concepts/faqs#how-long-does-d...
SkyTransfer is the result of an hackathon. It is open source so feel free to create an issue on GitHub for that or submit a PR for adding more information in the About section. As we wrote, "SkyTransfer is still in development. Please report any issues, new ideas or bugs". You know, our time is limited and we are doing our best.
Cool thing! Thanks for sharing it, I have to try it :)
ShareDrop looks like a great AirDrop alternative.
Regarding SkyTransfer, we created it for fun and to prove that Skynet and Sia technology work and people can create cool stuff with it. We strongly believe in technology behind SkyTransfer (not the value of the coin in the markets). File can be downloaded at any time, you just need the link. If a portal is down, you can simply switch to a different one. Obviously there is much more behind it, but it makes no sense to dwell on these discussions.
It is a totally new web experience and I think it's amazing (it is innovative for me). Probably it can be a little confusing on mobile devices but on desktop the effect is fantastic and really creative. You can work on it.. for the rest, compliments for the great good job.
I agree with you that it starts to get a little old; it is not a new topic but there is something else that is really impressive: the result. This paper shows that we are moving forward on a complex topic like colour transfer between images. Compliments for the research work!
