This comment is proof that any idea, no matter how simple, can always be feature-creeped.
Not that that stuff wouldn't be useful. But it would have been really easy to say that any one of these things was a 'must have' for a first implementation, and by the looks of it, is clearly not.
At first I thought this was a stupid idea, but then I keep checking to see if anyone had changed the image. Then I was curious and wanted to know the answers to the questions I posted. Maybe in the future =)
It's only a matter of time before someone puts up a dickerdoodle.
People will pay for anything apparently. This idea is not even original. Try again here http://www.lastpicstanding.com/
NB: NSFW as of this writing.
This site is free and you don't have to pay to change the image.
Therefore it will always be as NSFW as humanly possible.
I lurk there here and there for a few months and I can assure you that you are wrong. Unless you classify puppies, jokes and lolcats as such.
* Can we view previous images?
* Can you put a timer up that says image has been up for X minutes?
* If I want to change the picture and pay you and some does the same thing at the same time, but they clicked the submit button a few seconds after I did, then I'm gonna be a little pissed as I never saw my picture up there
* Counter that says Image viewed X times?
* Is there a minimum amount of time that the image stays up? (5 or 10 minutes?)
