How involved are the site owners with this site?
Well, it's his main source of income, at least involved enough to keep a roof over his head.
Are they still around?
Yes, even though it might be hard to get into contact with him.
Are they still developing new versions?
Yes, we are making
a new version: the 0.3.x branch. This will presumably be released when all tickets in the trac have been cleared. However, please be aware that the site owner is
not the person who develops most of the site's code; the site owner does all of the code for the layout, but the backend code is done by a different person. Since the site only generates enough income for one person, and the site owner doesn't have any other significant source of income, our backend developer is paid hourly and only works a limited number of hours per month on development since he has to have a full-time job.
That's why we have a Patreon:
www.patreon.com/gelbooru?ty=hAll proceeds from the Patreon go directly to funding development of the site. The more patrons we get, the faster development will proceed.
Are they taking recommendations? Or are they done and gone? I'd suggest adding the function to easily add pictures to personal pools. (Kinda like how Spotify allows people to add songs to different personal playlists.)
Yes. All feature suggestions should be posted in the trac:
