    We built Zankuro years ago and has been on auto-pilot since -We originally had a scraper to add wallpapers but since upgrading servers, the tech broke our bot code. :)

    Zankuro runs on WordPress, making it very easy to maintain and add new features.

    Some key features:
    - user system.
    - archived wallpapers, via tags & categories.
    - well seo'd.
    - wallpaper caches -users can resize any wallpaper and crop any wallpaper to any size.

    The reason we're selling is we simply don't have time to maintain Zankuro.

    http://screensnapr.com/v/3hfXgY.png -stats don't go back further due to a large site on the server that is causing it to lag.

    PS. All traffic is organic because we haven't marketed the site to anyone, we just let it sit there and let Google work its magic.

    Looks good.
    I have a couple of questions though.

    Can the scraper bot be fixed?

    Is it easy for users to add wallpapers?

    Is there a plugin being used for the wallpapers? If so, is it a free one or paid? If paid, is there an annual fee or upgrade fee?

    Is theme purchased?

    Calbert,

    The scraper works now but the website we were scraping has since put hotlinking protection. The actual code is now fine, and you can easily adapt the code to a new site.

    It's very easy to add wallpapers, if you signup to the site you can login and add wallpapers, the website is built to be a community for people to share their walls. :)

    There is no plugin for the wallpapers, though the website runs on wordpress and a lot of the code is custom, there are no fees as we coded it ourselves.

    Theme is created by us.

    There is a plugin that runs the submission aspect & paginations, but all that code can be dumped in a functions.php file and still work fine.

    Also I'd like to note, no core files have been edited.
