Same here, but I just uploaded a pick of Sun King Batch 333: The Velvet Fog from my Android using the add pic tab and it shot right through faster than you can say "QUICK."


Does the Android app’s add a picture function work now? Before I don’t think it did.

I didn’t try that. I just used my Android as a browser for the site.

Oh, misread that. I uploaded some yesterday all via "add pic" on the beer page some with my Android and some with laptop. None are up so far.

A bit of a hack, but at least that would give me feedback. Oh RateBeer API.....


eric, we are hosting at amazon now -- have been for a year. I thought we shared the info but if not I can send you an update privately.

Come on man, worse than a beer not having a picture is a beer not being on the database. I was often looking info for a beer or wanted to write a review and I had to add it first. And I am talking about lots of beers.
Here I have added only a couple and both times felt so rewarding, I was thinking "Oh cool, a beer that doesn’t exist here, great that I am the one to add it". On BA when it happens I am always "oh come on, another beer that doesn’t exist here."
Love both sites btw

Sent you the API info. Let me know if you have any questions.

So far random photos of the 60 or so I uploaded show, but need cropping and rotation.
