It's finally done! #ocular can now automatically post images to your mastodon account - huzzah!

https://nchrs.xyz/ocular.html

Host your own tiny static image feed, join the webring and share images #smallweb style!

Boosts appreciated. 

@rostiger it looks very nice. i've been enjoying following the RSS feed of the entire webring. i was thinking of setting up something similar myself, but i think the digital journal i made myself is filling the niche for me for now...

@palomakop Thanks, glad to hear it speaks to you. Totally vaild to run your own setup, too! If you are interested in participating in the webring, you can still do that, even with your own structure, as long as the rss feed accommodates the webring conventions:

@rostiger yeah, maybe i should make a pics-only version of the rss feed for this ... since i can have more than one image per journal entry, but i have the images saved separately in the db. something to think about :)
@rostiger i had to go into my journal code to fix images from my phone coming out upside-down... so i'm going to take a stab at the new images rss feed ^-^
@palomakop Cool! You could set it up that when you add an image to a post you could give it a special tag that your generator parses and builds it into the rss feed along with the link to the post. This way, when someone clicks the image in the webring it would lead directly to your post.
@rostiger well, i was thinking of adding a text link to the post in my cdata, hmm, so many ways to do it haha... once i have something working, could i ask you to double check and maybe give feedback on my implementation of the webring patterns before i join?

@palomakop Sure, I'd be happy to! I don't think it's necessary to put it in the CDATA, as the minimum requirements for the webring will probably be lowered to this:
