I'm Everyone, a live, anonymous image/video site (potentially NSFW).

The thing I'm hoping is that it 4chan continues to be the best place to trade porn. They do it better, ImEveryone is more about the actual communication, hence the semi-persistent identities, threading, etc.
I can run ImEveryone in black and white with little difference.
In the gap between the post and the submission hitting the front page there's some degree of filtering - you could get around it if you wanted to, but why not just send to 4chan?
You probably need some sort of warning for that..
Just a quick comment: I don't think the "each person in a thread has their own animal" feature is working correctly -- I posted a comment in a thread and got the same animal as an existing comment. In fact it looks like all comments at the same level wind up with the same animal.
Working on the animals fix now.
Edit: done - comment count and full size images now running.
One idea — what about making people authenticate with Facebook Connect to post? This would help with concerns about bad content being uploaded, as well as give a little bit of info about the author, and down the road you could subscribe to posts by a particular author?
Two things:
One is that it would lose the "I'm everyone" feel, as now there are identities of the authors.
Second part would be that just because you would use Facebook Connect to authenticate wouldn't mean that you would have to use their personal info on their post - they could choose between using their own info and using an alias that gives no tie back to who they are. Would just have to work on messaging so that people aren't scared away by the Facebook Connect logo.
True: re how to focus that - I'm all ears.
Something got past the adult filter - it's now gone. Sorry about that.
I may be discussing the site at PyCon, at which point I'll happily let you know what works and what fails.
- You can actually have a conversation with someone - each person submitting gets a unique animal for the thread. All replies from the same animal are from the same person.
- It's realtime, you can happily sit there and watch idly if you wish.
- There's a ranking algoritm that's based on interaction rather than vites.
There's still a few bugs to work out: post errors are at the top of the page Stack Overflow style but the first users all seem to hate this location - I'll move it back to the comment box. Also replies will get images very soon, but this isn't yet implemented yet.
I'm trying to chase the PostSecret demographic, but expect the odd birth of anonymous mirth in their too. The audience is anyone who is interested in the lives of others, or who has the basic human need to have a witness to their lives. Tech stack is Python, Tornado, MongoDB, my own ORM.
In any case, really cool concept, congrats!
Anyway, great site, though I find it rather cluttered with all the oversized text and images. Scale it all down a bit, and it will be much easier to get an overview of what is going on. Good luck!
Errors in posts are at the top of the page, an idea I borrowed from Stack Overflow.
In testing, though, people don't like this, so I'll move the error messages next revision.
I've moved the errors to the form area now.
Retry if you'd like, and if it doesn't work I'd be support happy if you email me the post - I'll check it goes through next time.
Very well done.
Now let's just hope it doesn't get covered with porn. :/
(or at least branch off the porn section ;)
just a note, chrome appears to be hanging on ping.chartbeat.com and somtimes GA. uploads are hit or miss.
A better 'sorry' page for these times is on my todo list. In fact I'd love some way for nginx to realize a proxy is down and redirect to a sorry page automatically.
