I was recently challenged by Cory to create a new tool for the Big Boards arsenal. After about a week of work I've finally completed the task. I now present to you, the
Auto Script Hosting Tool!
What is it you might ask? Well, when trying to come up with an idea of what to make, I looked at the
Code & Skin Hosting forum, and decided to make a tool that allows you to do essentially the same thing, except automatically and instantly. Basically, if you want to host a script or skin but don't have anywhere to do it, simply put in a name, the type of file, and then the contents of the file and hit submit. The next page will give you a link to the file, show you the contents, and automatically creates a ready-to-embed code that you just copy and put on your board!
Another nice feature this tool offers is the ability to compile multiple scripts together into one file. This is extremely useful for people who have so many codes on their forum they've run out of wrapper space. Just put in all your codes, upload it, and viola! It even filters out script tags if you forgot to remove them to ensure your code works properly.
On top of saving space, remotely hosting files will also cause them to load quicker on your board when users view it again, because the file is cached by their computer.
So without further ado, here is the link to this wonderful tool:

Bug Reports forum here on BB and I'll help you out the best I can. Any suggestions/comments you might have can be posted here.
Hope you all enjoy :)
