Return to Wiredness

Wiredness Image Manipulation API Information - Version 1.2

The Wiredness system includes a simple API which allows other web applications to pass through the information for an image. This will allow the user to modify that image using the Wiredness system and then save that image back to the calling web application. They can also chose to cancel the modification at any time and it will return them to your site with the original unmodified image.


You need to pass the following variables to the Wiredness API:

These can be passed as POST or GET variables to http://www.wiredness.com/api.php.


The following variables will be passed back from the Wiredness API: IMPORTANT: Do not use the URL passed back in the image variable as the hosted URL. YOU MUST copy the image to your own server. Wiredness is not an image host and images are deleted from the system every 24 hours. You will end up with a broken image.
