As a bonus, each time your custom gift is sent, you will earn back bonus Camfrog coins!

Here are a few tips and guidelines to uploading a custom virtual gift:

• Use your own artwork. If you upload something that doesn’t belong to you, it will be rejected.
• Make sure you are uploading a 100×100 pixel .jpg – If your image is larger than 100×100 it will not upload
• Make your gift light, and fun! (Check out our existing catalog for ideas!)

We’ve also made Camfrog Pro much easier to use. Now, when you subscribe to Camfrog Pro, the nickname you signed up with (the nick you are logged into camfrog.com with) will be activated with Camfrog Pro automatically.

Camfrog has always been about self-hosted rooms, and to continue on with this tradition, we have decided to discontinue our own room hosting service and enable all room owners to use our cloud technology with any hosting service.  If you have an active purchased Camfrog Cloud server, please contact our support team and they will be glad to assist you with a refund.

Camfrog Distributed Server for Hosters will be available soon. Some of the features of having your own Cloud service, are:

· Scalable distributed hosting Distribute your Camfrog rooms across multiple servers, for even more reliability and capacity

· Exclusive TCP media streaming Take advantage of our new audio/video streaming technology, that uses a newly modified video system. The result? Faster, higher quality video, with significantly less lag, or pixelation.

· Web based startup and control Camfrog Cloud Server exists entirely “in the cloud.” Users do not need to download or install any server, or console software on their computer to open up, or manage their chatroom, instead they simply use our new, secure, web control panel!

· Visibility in Camfrog.com website As a Cloud Service provider, your company and website will be listed in the hosters directory on Camfrog.com, a special page where users looking to open a room in a cloud will be able to view available hosting providers in their geographic region.

· Support up to 10,000 users in 1 room Because Cloud server is distributed, you can have a room with up to 10,000 users!

Be sure to keep following our blog for more announcements and updates about the features and availability of Camfrog Cloud Server.

We have recently experienced an outage of Camfrog Cloud service which has been caused by large scale DDoS attacks against our Cloud servers.  Our networking and engineering teams have been working around the clock to mitigate these attacks. We are working with our Internet providers and while we do not have an exact estimate for when this will be ready, we are hoping to have service back to normal as soon as possible.

We are extremely grateful for your continued patience while we weather these troubling attacks against our service. We will extend all Camfrog Cloud licenses to make up for this downtime. If you have any questions or concerns about the status of your Camfrog Cloud Server account/license, please feel free to Contact Us anytime.

Right now, this outage is limited to only Camfrog Cloud Server. Our engineering teams have been working hard to restore this as soon as possible.

If you have a room hosted in Camfrog Cloud, we will automatically extend your subscription by a week, to make up for this issue we are currently experiencing.

If you have any questions or concerns about this, please feel free to Contact us

As always, we greatly appreciate your patience, and your continued support in making Camfrog the best place to videochat.
