I could definitely see you using the Snog closure to your advantage. Best of luck with this Rhys, I look forward to seeing it up and running!

Okay, I've decided to get the project back on the rails (I think that's the saying... Oh no wait, it's back on track) and I've come to post a few little updates and other things.

I'm planning to open the site in it's early "beta" stages in early summer (May time). That's a long time to wait for a simple site to open a beta, I know, but I'm just one guy with 6 uni assignments to complete and 2 holidays to attend, meaning the project will be continued in my spare time as and when I get around to it. The website will be opening though, I won't let it flop again

for the "beta" or "V1" release, I'm going to include all the basic functionality; Sing up, upload a photo, browse others, verify your face. Updates will hit the site throughout summer, following my previous plans and new ones, to ensure the site is as safe and as fun as it can be for users. These include:

Site Moderation team - A team of 3-4 people (probably less to begin with) will be chosen to moderate the website, pick out fake users + bullys, to help eradicate the chances of Habbo getting on my case and trying to shut me down.
Photo Commenting - Once a moderation system has been worked out + implemented, comments on photos will be allowed. Whether they're placed in a moderation queue before being public, or moderators get a notification when a new comment is posted has yet to be decided.
Photo Rating System - Yes, I will be adding this function. However, only the owner of the photo can view their "rating", in order to avoid bullying and blah blah. Top users will be implemented, however.
Auto Verification - Able to verify your Photo and account by placing a string of characters in your Habbo motto. Nothing else to be said about this really.

FINALLY.
I'm looking for an apprentice... Well, more like a partner, to help me out with development. This is simply because of the sheer amount of Uni work I have to do. Obviously I won't be paying you, but you will get a share of the ad revenue (if any) as well as full credit for the work you will be doing. If you'd like to enquire about this just PM me! Obviously I'm not expecting a queue of people, but some help while I'm showed under would be nice.

Thanks

I am very tired, please ignore my grammar & spelling.
