i-ssential listened to the users and integrates a bunch of new features in the new beta-version of the web-service thumbalizr (http://www.thumbalizr.com).

Bloggers, webmasters, account managers, designers are able to take a screenshot of webpages very fast and efficient without the need to start a graphic program.

Webmasters can use the API for their website. They can choose between a free account or dedicated products with diverse functionalities.
Amongst others user can get PNG- or JPEG-pictures, store pictures locally on the webserver and control the waiting period to shoot a screen (which is helpful for Flash-websites).

Today we fixed a little bug that caused a problem with URL’s containing PHP parameters. Now you can also thumb URL’s like this:

http://www.mydomain.com/index.php?id=1234&mode=xyz

So long,

Another milestone has been reached: 100.000 generated thumbz!
This makes that an average of more than 7.000 thumbz per day since we started the service.

Our performance tuning also seems to be quite successful, as we haven’t encoutered any performance-issues since friday.

We’ve done some tuning last night and …. yes, the system is running well … 20.000 Thumbs served since yesterday.

Our API is in good shape - thumbs are served “in time”.

Avg CPU is 20% so I’ll enjoy the weekend !

Best regards

Your thumb’d technician

Wow, what a stunning response. Thanks to your tremendous usage of our service, we have reached our 1st milestone of 50.000 generated thumbz in only about 10 days!
That’s much more than we could have expected. Thanks again at that point!

Unfortunately our new server (dualcore opteron 2.6 ghz, 4gb RAM !) is still quite busy handling your requests. So we’re still working hard on performance tuning, especially for the API usage…

Furthermore, we also have some new features in mind to make our services even more suitable for your requirements. So you’d better stay tuned…

Best regards, your thumbalizr team

thanks to our extreme fast technician, we are running on a new server now which should be much faster than before. Besides this we did some pimping in server-options and programming…

Have fun and save time with this nifty tool..
