The landing strip now carries a score: each look and each contributed
frame shows an average, five stars the visitor can press, and how many
votes it has. Votes are keyed photo:<id> or look:<TAG> and one visitor
has one vote per key, so pressing a second star moves a score instead of
stacking one. The API is public and rate-limited; look: scores survive a
cleared pool, photo: scores are pruned with their photo.
PICTURES was four destination rows; it is now an album per uploader with
a search box, a recipe/rating/newest sort, a minimum-star filter, a big
preview and a filmstrip of thumbnails. Deleting and slot picking still
live in the big box.
A photo's landing section can now be the QR card, and that section is the
only one that hands something out: the server writes the photo's own stored
look back as the app's .recipe file, at
GET /api/photos/:id/preset.recipe, for any row the curator ticked into the
qr slot. Nothing new is stored — the file is built from the recipe the
upload already carried, so it works for a photo uploaded by the phone too.
The admin pane grows a fourth checkbox and a fourth row (QR card); the
row draws the download link as a scannable code, and the box is dead for a
photo with no stored look. The landing's QR card now encodes the curated
photo's own link instead of a mock address. The listing exposes
hasPreset, never the recipe itself.
The picker was one dropdown, so a photo lived in exactly one place. The three
destinations are now independent checkboxes on the card, and the column holds
the set as a comma list — the landing page draws a photo in every section it
was ticked into, each still picking one of its own at random per visit.
Ticking nothing is what `off` used to be: the row is kept and the landing page
stops drawing it, which is what the old "not on the landing page" option did.
Uploads still land in the community strip with consent on, by the uploader's own
tick — that default stays. What was missing is the curator's removal: the slot
select only offered the other three live placements, so "off the strip" meant
publishing the photo somewhere else or deleting the uploader's row.
`off` is a fifth slot value. The reel draws slot === 'strip' and each live slot
draws its own, so an `off` photo renders nowhere on the landing, while its owner
still has it in MY PHOTOS.
Every member gets /photos — their own uploads, counted against a 12-photo
cap, each card showing the tagline and the technical line the studio would
print. The studio gains SAVE PHOTO n/12 in the top bar: it renders the full
resolution look, stores the strip (tag/title/meta) with the upload so the
landing reel frames it the same way, and refuses past the cap.
EXPORT now burns that strip into the file: the amber #TAG over the photo's
top-left plus a dark caption band below carrying the recipe name and the
ISO / grain / warmth line. The live preview stays clean, and the saved
upload stays clean too — the reel draws its own frame from the stored
labels, so a burned band would tag the tag twice.
Admins manage any photo through DELETE /api/photos/:id; members only their
own. The users table's photo counts stay in step with the folder.
- /admin User account rows gain BLOCK/UNBLOCK, REMOVE/RESTORE and DELETE.
Blocked = cannot sign in (sessions swept), removed = hidden from the strip
and cannot sign in, both reversible; DELETE drops the account with its
photos and recipes and unlinks the files. An allowlisted account is never
a target, so an admin cannot moderate or delete itself.
- Photo uploads move from a 3MB API cap / 4m nginx cap to 12MB / 16m, and
the browser shrinks an oversized still before sending it (2048px JPEG,
avatars 512px) so the declared type still matches the sniffed bytes.
- The studio SAVE leaves the top bar and sits under the CREATE RECIPES tab,
labelled SAVE RECIPES.
- an account can carry a picture: POST /api/auth/avatar (raw bytes,
sniffed, replaces and unlinks the old file) and the public
GET /api/users/:id/avatar. It rides wherever the account is named —
the landing chip, the studio TopBar, the profile form.
- new /profile page for members, sharing one Profile form (picture,
email, password) with the admin drawer.
- /admin is now one bordered frame whose left column is
Profile / User account / Pictures / Close. Pictures lists every
photo in the system with the slot that shows it; User account lists
each account's name, email, picture and contribution count.
- account control opens a menu: Admin page + Log out for an admin,
Profile + Log out for a member.
Backend
- photos table + upload storage under DATA_DIR/uploads (magic-byte sniffing,
no multipart dep, SVG rejected, wx exclusive writes)
- POST/GET /api/photos, GET /api/photos/:id/file with nosniff + sandboxed CSP
- admin routes (ADMIN_EMAILS allowlist): list, delete one, clear all
- identity-keyed rate limits (login 20/15m, signup 5/h, upload 60/h)
- cookie gains Secure when the request is https (via trustProxy)
- /api/auth/me now 200 {user:null} instead of 401 when signed out
Frontend
- landing strip section: signed-in users upload straight from the reel,
guests get a /app?auth=1 link
- /admin page: grid of uploads with delete + clear all
- nginx: nosniff / X-Frame-Options / Referrer-Policy, forward
X-Forwarded-Proto so the API can mark cookies Secure behind TLS
