(Blatant self-promotion warning)<p>If you’ve been using Parse as part of a photo-sharing app, you might want to take a look at <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ostetso.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ostetso.com</a>.  While we’re by no means a drop-in replacement for Parse, what we DO offer are all the pieces needed to create an instagram-like app, including the image hosting, user management, code that gives you a gallery of user images, etc., etc. (iOS only at this point though.)  Check out the source code for an example app on Github (at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;PrecipiceLabs&#x2F;Ostetso_SharePictures" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;PrecipiceLabs&#x2F;Ostetso_SharePictures</a>) that uses the Ostetso platform.<p>Free until you get to a LOT of traffic&#x2F;users.
