Here's my contribution to the new site haha... it's just to the left when you open up the page
 
Hypah (the creator of brawball) has posted the reason for the outage on his forum...

Poland waged war against me and ran up my bandwidth allocation for the month. As a consequence, drawball will be down until September 1st. Sorry, all.
 
On September 1, we will attack, and win. This time, we wont have to deal so much with finland attacking, poland dominating, and 4chan building a swastika. total clean slate.

I suggest we create a super legit, small logo like we did the first time, so that its easy to maintain and pops out super hard on the page.
 
Hypah's reply to what you ask...

To clarify why I can't just pay for the extra bandwidth...

I

get 1500 GB per month at a fixed price of just over $100 per month, but

my host charges 50 cents/GB if I go over that limit. Drawball was

hitting 200 GB/day from this flag war. If I hadn't taken drawball down

yesterday, then if the trend continued, I'd have had to pay $100 extra

per day, totaling $1,000 by September 1st, which is several times more

than the server itself costs per month. I can't afford that, especially

since 99% of the flag war people happen to run ad blockers...

Explanation of new "drawing site"

google_ad_section_start

http://www.hypah.com/board

to warn you, it's currently infested by 4chan and very NSFW. I did find one brave artist's work off in the distance, though. http://www.hypah.com/fa.jpg

The

main scaling problem with drawball was the need to store all image data

in RAM at all times, which meant one drawball would take 400+ MB of RAM

on the server. That's why I can only really host two of them. This new

thing takes advantage of new techniques to work around the need for

that. I'll be able to host A LOT of them, for everyone.

There

will be text, too. It's actually already implemented, but I hid it from

the public test link. The way I did it rules because you can type with

any font on your own system, and everybody else will see it correctly

even if they don't have your font. That has been a nightmare plaguing

me for years, lol, but I finally came up with a solution...

There will also be more drawing tools than on drawball. Smudge/blur are in the works. Stay tuned.

The

appeal of this over drawball is that anyone will be able to have their

own personal expansive image hosting/drawing board just like this. I'm

planning to make it possible to keep the editing privileges strictly

controlled ([everyone/friends/me] [can/cannot] [upload pictures/draw]).

This way, strangers can look but not touch, and it's entirely up to you

who can alter your work. Yeah, I want to implement accounts with a

friend system.

The current state of this thing is sort of like

what your account's "profile" will be. You'll also have a user name and

a pic. What else is necessary, do you think?

I intend to

additionally make a fixed-width, vertically-scrolling version of this,

basically a live chat room where you can draw, type, and package images

into a message before sending it. These will be the primary space where

users actually interact with each other.

The final goal will

basically be a small social network for visually-oriented people with

an artistic flair. Hopefully it will catch on since it's all I work on

these days.

Also, none of this affects drawball. Drawball will NOT go away, and it will be back online September 1st.

Let me know what you think...
