Help Needed: Memeit.LOL Image Hosting

App Overview: You can use Memeit.LOL to create original memes and post them to the Steem Blockchain

Details

We would like to store created memes on steemitimages.com, Steemit uses a proxy for images anyways, and this way it's one less connection to get to your viewing pleasure.

Reference is located at: https://github.com/steemit/condenser/blob/b4579bf0fccf17b846e9bd27b4f77b615ceb2036/src/app/redux/UserSaga.js. Starting at line 526 is their code to upload images to steemitimages.com. We will then test it on https://test.memeit.lol/ and hopefully it will work.

The repo for steemitimages.com is at https://github.com/steemit/imagehoster.

Components

The file needed to be changed is https://github.com/memeit-lol/memeit.lol/blob/master/public/js/meme.js. Line 92 uses jQuery to send the meme to our servers to store there. We would like it to send the image to steemitimages that returns an object with a key url which image.value needs to be set to. Then in routes/post.js the body of the post will be needed to be changed to account for the new url schema.

Deadline

We would like this done by the beginning of the next week so we can test it and get it into production.

Communication

You can contact me, @kennybll the main dev at @kennybll on steemit.chat and discord as @kennybll#3044. We also have a discord server here.

Once Done

Once your done please add a pull request to https://github.com/memeit-lol/memeit.lol. Then a suggestion is to make a post on utopian to earn rewards for your hard work which is why we're making a task request.

Thanks

Thank you from the Memeit.lol team.
