Hey all,

I've been working on this project for a while now, it was originally called 'MyChat' or 'MyChatbox' but it was more along the lines of a shoutbox, than a chatbox so it has been named 'JustShout!'.

The entire concept of it is an image based shoutbox. Usual/traditional shoutboxes are hosted on the user's website and can only be viewed on that one page on that one site, this is 'portable' in a sense; you can link to it in any site/forum.

for instance, these following images are hosted on my site but can be viewed here.

[img]http://www.helraizer.co.uk/mychatbox/user/helraizer.gif[/img] - full (link supposed to be image)

-or-

[img]http://www.helraizer.co.uk/mychatbox/user/helraizer_myspace.gif[/img] - JustShout! mini (supposed to be image)

At the moment I have these following things have been implimented:

- Anti-spam/flood methods introduced: users can only post once every 60 seconds; once a user has posted 2 consecutive posts the cannot post again until another user has posted or until 1 hour (60 minutes) has passed.

-Registered users get both JustShout! and JustShout!Mini shoutboxes.
-Choice of 5 fonts and 6 colours to add variety to posts.
-The shoutbox author (user who's shoutbox it is) can delete posts the don't want in their shoutbox.
-Users (registered or not) who have posted in a shoutbox can edit and/or delete their posts.
-The image and form can be included on a myspace page so users can post directly from MySpace.

Coming soon:
-User CP:
-users will be able to make their shoutbox different dimensions.
-users will be able to make a personalised censor list to filter posts with words they may find offensive.
-users will be able to upload their own background, choose different fonts and colours.

So, what do you guys (and gals) think?

Can you think of any other cool tools and 'things' I could impliment to make it better/more accessible?

Sam
