Topic: A few questions about E621 API's upload endpoint

Posted under e621 Tools and Applications

Hi. I would like to play around with the E621 API's upload endpoint a bit (to see how it works and how i can use it in an application), but before I start doing anything, i just want to ask a few quick questions.

First, how should i encode an image so i can send it through an HTTPS Request ? Should i generate an image data URI, send in the raw image data, or some other way ?
Second, if i post some random (furry-related) image as a test, and immediately flag it for deletion myself, will my Upload Limit be affected ? Also, what would happen if i did that multiple times, since i doubt i'm gonna get everything right the first time ?

Asking these questions before I start doing anything, becuase i don't want to fuck over my Upload Limit or get banned.
