I know that feature from the Desktop. The questions is how to make it private "for your eyes only" or through friends (followers) access only. You know what I mean right?

And mobile steemit still need a lot of improvement. It's really hard to steemit using smart phones.

Cheers.

  • Private Albums: Impossible. Since entire platform is built on freedom/public content, there is not much hope for your desire here :( It would be including or sharing another hash for private albums, which could seriously compromise security of Steem accounts.
    The only thing that cross my mind is actually option during upvote (50/50, 100 or no reward) to add option name Private, where you post only can be visible based to the follower part of api related to the account posting. But it's still not private photo album, it's private post.
  • Couldn't agree more with you about eSteem (Mobile App). There is to many options within Steem to make it that simple on Mobile, so far as UI/UX Steem Mobile App is best can be for the time being.
    I strongly suggest use of tablets if you are dedicated Steemian for Mobile App. It's much more easy to use and general view is better.

I think it is a possibility to extend this feature, like an add-on or a separate website e.g. steemnow.com and steemdb.com

What do you think?

@yehey

Not really. For example i'm owner of the domain steemnot.com
I can (it's just example), provide a personal private file manager (like google drive but not) where you can come and create user that will have his own file/image/doc storage. To keep it for Steemians only, i can setup register form to not automatically approve user, but by admin (me) and can set the rule (same as in Steem Poker Series) that user has to be registered with the same username as steem account or it will not be approved. Once you are approved, you can have your own private images, but still they will be visible to only one you share with. So if you want your follower to see your private photos, he would be also need to have account there so you can share albums with him only. In the post in that way, here on steemit, photos would be not accessible to public, and would be loading as broken, while your follower with who you shared account on another platform can load the post with full images or directly from another website visit albums you shared with him. If someone from steem would help me to create that all through Access API and write whole bloody thing, then it would be possible to avoid registrations and login/create account directly through API, but it would be demanding another investment into the blockchain, similar to chainbb.com

Steemnow is classic web page that is just loading data from accounts through public API and it's not requesting any access from user, so it's not similar solution/example to use :)

Also big ISSUE is how to compress images and how much storage would we need (there is 220.000 users) who are uploading daily 20-500 mb, so it would BE BLEEDING EDGE storage technology and investment included.

Maybe some VIP members only ? :D

I think about developing one, but funding is holding me back.

@yehey

I would suggest to you first to finish development of yehey.com first :)

https://yehey.com/readme.html - Delete it
You have some remains of old WordPress also in mysql.
On top of everything your JetPack is having missconfiguration with your SSL

:) It was just at first glance, still this is public, enough information :)

Hit the chair and keyboard few days away from Steem for your own Sake :)

Private albums are impossible because the platform is public? I think you're mistaken. A user could potentially post an album whose contents are encrypted. Sharing the encryption key would be the means to grant access to the album.

If each user had a public/private key pair, and published the public one as part of their account profile, the key to view the album could be encrypted with public key of each user to whom access should be granted. Those encrypted keys could be posted publicly for all to see, along with the encrypted album contents.

(I hope my ignorance of steem isn't showing and there's not some obvious technical limitation i'm missing... I'm new to steem, but in principle this seems reasonable - i mean, if you can post pictures and text, why couldn't you post encrypted pictures and text?)

Steem is not built as file manager, and sharing keys would COMPROMISE platform seriously. There is no "Reading Hash Password".

Public - Posts are meant for everyone to see. Privacy comes to each user individually not between each other in blockchain.

Or at least you should explain in more technical keys, because abrakadabra private key/post private album/share is just a magic, not a technical possibility of API yet.

Do you know what are file permissions on hosting ? How you will manage permissions with encryption if you not encrypt entire file (then it's not image anymore and requires decoding to not be encrypter (base64) which is consider serious security flaw.

Magento CMS because of it has hacks all the year and constantly needs to place some security patches/leaks.
