Steganography on Images

I am in the process of updating my blog with a detailed description of my projects so that people can know my programming expertise and hire me for programming jobs!

I did this project sometime back in which i was supposed to hide text into images that user uploads into the system. This text is hidden inside the image and is not displayed when seen by the naked eye. There are many sophesticated algorithm for the project, but we used a simple substitution algorithm for encoding the text into several pixels of the image.

The user who uploads the image also has to give a secret password or a passcode which is used as an encryption key to decide the position of the pixels whose values are substituted to accomodate the position the bits of text to be hidden in the image. This is a project that i did more that 3 years ago and was done in Vb 6.0 as the client had specifically requested at that time. Later on, i did convert the project into the .net platform using asp.net with vb.net.

To do this project in VB 6 was relatively difficult because of the various bit level calculations that we had to perform which is painstaking in vb 6 but using .net i could leverage the power of .net to do this project and to include several other features to this project.

The latest additions to this software was the ability to share and transfer the images with other users giving the software some social features. This software could also watermark images and have visible or invisible copyright information about the images.

I am a freelance programmer with experience in vb,vb.net,asp,asp.net and php with mysql and ms-sql as the backend. Please contact me if you need any programming job to be done or if you need to outsource any programming projects.
