Are the Jam and Ayako galleries going to make a comeback?

Bravery is better than a faint heart for a man seeking to put his nose out of doors. My fate and the number of my days has already been decided.

Will do.

As for the Jam and Ayako galleries I'm leaning more towards creating general galleries for Variable Geo and Guilty Gear so they may not need seperate galleries after all.  I'll think it out some more and see what I come up with.

I'm in the process of uploading all of the hentai CG from Variable Geo Rebirth and Rebirth Dash.

Edit: Done!  All of the CG for V.G. Rebirth and Dash have been added!

In the best interests of perserving what bandwidth the site has left for the month, the gallery's going to be down until May 1st.  This month we hit a snag bandwidthwise(it's a long story) and it'll be ironed out by next month.

Sorry folks, that was my suggestion.  But it's better to keep the core and h-forum than lose the whole site when the bandwidth cap is reached.

Since adding a Viper gifs section to the gallery bandwidth usage has jumped up considerably.  We're easily breaching 1 GB in bandwidth usage a day now.  

To give you an idea of how this effects us, consider that we're allowed 15GB of bandwidth every month, and that if this continues then all of the bandwidth will be used up around the 15th of this month.

In other words I'm either going to have to purchase more bandwidth in order to keep the gallery up or take the gallery down again before all of it is used up.

It's actually a really cool phenomenon.  While on one hand it's bad that so much bandwidth is being used up because we have a limited amount, on the other it shows just how popular we've become. This site is slowly become the site for Viper images, and that's something I'm proud of.

There's always been a high demand for Viper gifs and now that some of the most popular sets can be found in one place (RSR, V16, and in the future, CTR) it's no suprise that so much bandwidth is being used up(Not to mention they're rather large in file size.)

I ultimately hope to have all of the collections of Viper animated gifs in the gallery, though right now I'd like to concentrate on the most popular series first.

I can't say when we'll get a bandwidth upgrade, but when we do, expect that much more content because by then not only will we be able to handle it, but I'll be using it to it's fullest potential.

Can't find Viper RSR
« Reply #10 on: May 09, 2005, 12:05:50 pm »
I can't seem to find any gif animations of Viper RSR. Been to Hentai paradise but the link seems to be broken or something. Does anyone know where I can get these RSR animations?

There's some in the gallery right now.

I still have about 266 more that I have to upload and add.

Sorry about that. It was working earlier today.  I've taken the gallery offline in order to save what little bandwidth we have left.

Because of the tremendous amount of bandwidth they used up, the Viper RSR gifs have been removed from the gallery. As much as I'd like to host them realistically this site wouldn't stay up for more than a couple of days at the rate bandwidth was being consumed.

Gah, I came at a bad time. =P

Well, maybe you could put the gifs in a download for us? Even though that kind of takes away the whole "Gallery" idea, it still would be nice. >_>

I've gotten most of the Viper V16 and RSR gifs myself, but still, maybe I'm missing a few?  :og

If I put the gifs in a download, then it would use up even more bandwidth, even more than all of the traffic to the gallery combined.

All of the Viper RSR gifs in a single download equals 138 MB, and with the amount of visitors I receive every day(roughly 300 on average and 600 on peak days) bandwidth would get used up much faster than it's being used now.

Because if 300 people downloaded a 138 MB file, then a total of 41.4 GB of bandwidth would be used in a single day, and the site would then require a little over 1.2 tetrabytes of bandwidth per month to sustain the demand, which is way more than what we have now.

So no, putting gifs files into a single download isn't an option.  By distributing images with the gallery less bandwidth is used because users then only download the images they want, and even then, only a few at a time.

While I can understand the inconvenience of having to download single images at a time, at the other end of the spectrum this site isn't free.  Money for hosting and bandwidth comes out of my own pocket and while I'd love to be able to have 1.2 tetrabytes of bandwidth to use every month, the reality is that the cost of bandwidth would be more than I'd be willing to spend on something I do in my spare time.

Besides that, most of the complete sets of gifs I have I already torrent on sites like Datorrents, Hongfire, Deadfrog and the like, and it doesn't take much effort to search and download them, or in the case that they're not present on those sites, request them and have them put up.

I don't advertise my torrents here as vocally as I do on those other sites because I don't want to attract the attention of legality mongers who would try to bust this site on a technicality like linking to torrents, so while I don't mind people on the forums linking to torrents of unlicensed material, very rarely will you see me link to a torrent.  The most I'll make is a mention, but if there happens to be something Viper related that's not on this site chances are I have it and have torrented it somewhere else. O  3O

I talk too much.

I see the nice files, thing is ... no seeds. >_>

Never knew there were 295 gifs for RSR though.

Nevermind, checked deadfrog.

Man I can't wait.  :hcf  :p

Here's an idea.  How about a Graf Zeppelin image gallery?  I have most of CG sets, and managed to get ahold of his latest one for Godannar called Soul Breaker.
