This comprehensive phpFox Add-on allows users to upload their photos and videos to take part in competition with other users, taking full advantage of our natural competitive nature. The system automatically creates ‘Random Battles’ of uploaded user media for voting and commenting on. Users who would never ordinarily interact with each other will have the opportunity to do so with the creation of these randomly selected battles.

Users can send ‘Challenge’ requests to individual users and the recipient has the option to accept or decline. Acceptance and completion of a media challenge appears in the phpFox feed for other users to comment and like.

Different statistics regarding best and worst media are displayed on each page, along with a link to that users profile. This phpFox add-on fully utilises ‘LightBox’ when images are viewed and all videos appear in a convenient Ajax box for the user to manipulate as they wish.

Scrolling images of all media partaking in battles appear on each page to create a visually stimulating product. Again, both ‘LightBox’ and Ajax are utilised for aesthetics and convenience.

League tables are available for all to see which allows easy access to the top media and top user profiles. There are also league tables for the worst users and media uploaded for increased user interaction.

Administrators have the ability to restrict all aspects of the product depending on user privileges. For example, you can restrict video uploads and challenge requests for designated user groups. All users can receive challenge request to entice them to upload media and create higher site traffic and interaction.
