CoverFlow in PicPush Transfers = KOOOOOL! :-)
Posted by declanshanaghy in PicPush on January 24th, 2010
Not too long ago I came across a coverflow widget for Android and thought, wow that looks brilliant! Given that the transfers tab of PicPush uses the Android Gallery widget I decided to drop it in and see how it would look.
PicPush 3.1.0 – New Plugin Framework
Posted by declanshanaghy in PicPush on August 5th, 2009
The latest update to PicPush includes a plugin framework for 3rd party applications to listen in on PicPush upload activity and manipulate the data in any way that can be imagined.
The first user of this framework, PicPush Tweeter, listens to and records every time PicPush completes an upload. It will then post tweets with links to the posted pics and video. URL shortening provided by Bit.Ly
The future for this framework is promising, we plan to have multiple other plugins to do things like post to your Facebook wall, collect statistics about uploads and even do the nightly dishes.
Download PicPush, the multimedia syndication Android application from the Android Market today.
MultiChoice Preference Widget for Android
Posted by declanshanaghy in Android, PicPush on July 9th, 2009
Strangely, the Android framework does not include a widget which allows multiple selections in Preference Screens. I needed to add one of these for selecting folders to monitor for new media in PicPush and ended up having to implement it myself.

PicPush 3.0 Released
Posted by declanshanaghy in PicPush on July 9th, 2009
It’s been some time since we’ve made major changes to PicPush. CrowdPleazer sort of took over all the development time. With a major push in the last 2 weeks or so we got the new UI implemented and added some great features which take PicPush functionality to the next level:
- Activate/deactivate destinations when scheduling one time upload.
- Selectable folders for automatic scanning
- Selectable folders for “find new” (multi choice)

Scan Me!
PicPush 1.1.19 (download from android market) now supports automatically marking your pics as public when uploaded to Facebook and Flickr.
The default setting is that all pics are uploaded as public. If you wish to keep your photos private so that you can later make them public manually simply go to the Preferences page and uncheck the box.
N.B.
Facebook privacy settings must be confirmed externally in your web browser. PicPush will automatcally do this when setting up a new Facebook destination. If you already have Facebook setup and wish to turn off the private flag simply long click on the destination to edit it, then click save, this will launch the browser to approve the privacy settings.
