I have a request from a client, and I am not sure how to do it.
He have a computer in an event (like a wedding) with a printer.
He wants to receive photos by the guests so he can print them.
It has to be done as easily as possible.
I think it has to be done with spider basic, but I am asking her because I love you all more.
My ideas :
1.- set up a web where guests log to Sent photos
2.- the guests upload their photos to Instagram with a #tag. My program will check Instagram with the #tag and download them.
Any more ideas?
How to send photos to a server?

Install apache or nginx on the PC setup NextCloud and check the data directory for the incoming pictures.
Why should the guests transfer the pictures to the internet?

Simply Bluetooth if each guest agrees to wait his turn to send his photos.AMpos wrote:...

OR
A shared folder (guest account) and a Wi-Fi hotspot (prevent guests from having to use the Internet and speed up transfers)

They do not have to transfer pictures to the internet. Using internet for this is one of the possible solutions.infratec wrote: Why should the guests transfer the pictures to the internet?
AS I explained, my client wants to print photos done by the event' guests.
Imagine you are on a wedding, you make a photo on your mobile and the printer-guy give it to you printed with a overlay with "Jhon&Jane Wedding!".
Currently I know a solution that does this. You ask your guest/clients to upload photos to Instagram with the tag #J&JWed. The printing software is always scanning Instagram with such tag, download them and print (with or without confirmation from the printing-guy).

Too complicated to ask a random guy to install apache on his computer... Thx anyway.infratec wrote:Install apache or nginx on the PC setup NextCloud and check the data directory for the incoming pictures.

-Shared: not bad if guests on mobile phones could acceses a samba folder. I dont think a mobile can do it easily.
Lets going with the brainstorming!
