WordPress Plugin for BritePic

January 28, 2008

britepic_logo.gifAdBrite launched BritePic, a monetization service for images, last year, which enabled you to have ads being shown on images on your blog or website.

The biggest pain point was the fact that for a blog, you have to manually replace all images you have in your post with their JavaScript code to “BritePic” the image. This is just too much of an effort due to which I stopped using it completely. The code looked like:

<script>

britepic_id="id";

britepic_src="< == ENTER IMAGE URL == >";

</script>

<script src="http://www.britepic.com/britepic.js"></script>

<noscript></noscript>

So, how can its usage be simplified? What if someone comes up with a plugin that looks for images in posts, and BritePic’s them? Sounds doable doesn’t it?

I have started working on this on my own and the plugin should be launched shortly (as beta!). This will be my first WordPress plugin.

This will be a simple way to start making money from images on your blog posts.

If someone knows of a plugin that already does this, do let me know. I will not waste my time reinventing the wheel.

    Well, there was no need for me to develop one. I found one which works okay at:

    Only problem with this particular plugin is that it converts all images to britepic ads, irrespective of its size. It needs a bit of tweaking to get it to work correctly.

    I tried it on this blog, and it messed up with the layout a bit. I will look at tweaking it in the coming days to see if it works based on certain keywords, etc.

Got something to say?
