• Change letter spacing in a bitmap font

  I managed to solve it by generating a bitmap font with the Shoebox. It automatically trims every character in a font thus removing the empty space. This solution is far from the best, but unfortunately I didn't find any alternative for adjusting kerning (individual letter spacing). Source: over 1 year ago

• how to make sprite sheets?

  There is a great free tool called shoebox. It would sort pngs together into one image and even do sheet animations from gifs Saved us alot of time in game development. Maybe it can help you Https://renderhjs.net/shoebox/. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Creating a hand anti-aliased pixel font to use in a Label?

  This tip is just what I was looking for! I checked out some .FNT tools and found a nice tool called Shoebox (http://renderhjs.net/shoebox/) which neatly packs your font sprite and seems a bit more user friendly. Now it's working great in Godot, cheers mate. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Google Drive misplaces months' worth of customer data

  This is not for everyone, but I host my family photos myself, most recently with this: https://piwigo.org/. I have been doing this since 2007 (started on a different software, called "gallery". Was able to migrate from gallery2 to gallery3 and now piwigo), and so far no major issues. Advantage: I can easily share photos with family, no need for iCloud, Facebook, or indeed any service- they just need a web browser... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Ask HN: What are some self-hosted photo organizing/sharing programs?

• I created UltimateHomeServer - A K3s based all-in-one home server solution

  A couple additiona maybe?: - Piwigo great for photo management. Could be used as an alternative to Google Photos - Nexcloud for file sharing. Replacement for Google Drive. Source: 11 months ago

• Is there a way to create a mass photo storage system that can be accessed anywhere?

  I use https://piwigo.org/ on a old PC that I installed Linux on. Source: 12 months ago

• Organization of projects, photos and models?

  I have on my list to evaluate self-hosted image clouds Piwigo and Photoprism but they don't bridge the photogrammetry gap either. It might even be more time consuming if I have to download the assets I'm working on first. Source: 12 months ago
