Try uploading images and things to https://up1.ca/

Also be sure to check out ShareX at https://github.com/Upload/ShareX , a popular screen-shot tool adapted to work with Up1.

Contributions to the code are always welcome, and we hope you enjoy!

I've never found it useful that parts after # in url is not sent to server. Now I do, it should never be removed. This is perfect way to add a decryption key as demonstrated.

It works the same way on MEGA.nz which is like Google Drive or Dropbox with client side crypto.

That's true. It's also open source, unlike MEGA.nz.

Awesome! Love the idea and implementation. Are you planning on building more clients around this?

I've been interested in building a private, low-friction photo sharing app for a while, and I might start on one with your server code as the jumping off point.

We're actually not sure what most people use (apart from ShareX) for uploading images, but we're looking to implement functionality into new clients to support Up1 for sure.

That would be awesome! If you run into any trouble, be sure to hit us up in the IRC or throw an issue on Github.

An extension for roundcube (https://roundcube.net/) to suppliment or replace the email attach function would be pretty cool

While cool looking, the production site uses a bunch of .js file that are neither combined nor minified. Some, like shims.js, are only 24 lines long.

Pretty cool.

Questions: - what are the upload size limitations? - is a password protect option in the roadmap?

Re:Show HN: Up1 – An open-source, client-side encrypted imag... by k3d3 on Wednesday June 24, 2015 @12:12PM (#9772573)
Currently the upload size max is 50MB.

There were no plans to password protect images, but that's a good idea! For now, the post key itself (after the # in the URL) somewhat acts as a password.

No man, keep it simple. The password in hash makes this perfect, it's so great idea.
