Show HN: website screenshot for dummies. Shotsrv.com

2 points by ibudiallo 13y ago ↗ HN

This is my side project. I recently was in need of a screenshot service and most of them were un reliable. Those that worked were expensive. So I created my own:

Http://shotsrv.com

Your feedback is much appreciated.

With the rise of responsive websites, you may want to accept viewport parameters or at least identify which viewport you're screenshotting at.

That's interesting, I will add it to my features list.

Why when I write a link to try out Shotsrv an image appears that says "No images, deal with it!" ???

Most of the crappy screenshot services are expensive or filled with spammy ads because the bandwidth and processing power to serve the screenshots is not cheap. Wont the same thing happen with your service too if it becomes popular? TANSTAAFL
