This project is inspired by platforms like Pinterest and Scrolller, but aims to fix their shortcomings. Pinterest offers many categories and a search engine, but personalization is only available with a login. I also find the layout cluttered, with too much text between images and unnecessary space. Scrolller has a more gallery-focused design, which I prefer, but it’s plagued by ads and paywalls. They even charge for downloading images they don’t own, and try to block right-clicking on images—though anyone with basic tech knowledge can bypass that with dev tools. Not to mention, the fake "bandwidth exceeded" messages... Let's just say it’s not a pleasant experience. That’s where my project comes in. I set out to solve these issues by creating a mobile- and desktop-friendly image gallery with dynamic image loading and completely anonymous data collection to ensure privacy. It uses advanced algorithms to analyze user interactions and offer personalized recommendations without requiring a login. The AI-powered search engine delivers highly relevant results, and users can freely download any image they like without restrictions or paywalls. So, how does it stay free? Ads—but with a key difference: they’re kept to a minimum, just enough to cover server costs, which remain low thanks to efficient algorithms. My focus is on delivering a seamless, user-friendly experience without bombarding users with excessive ads.
