Quote by BrainWalkerRecently,
however, I discovered that it only seems to go up to 24 bit (16 million colors)
color depth, and the criteria calls for 32.
As far as I
know...
32-bit colour is just 24-bit colour with an alpha channel (defines which parts
of the image are transparent). Jpeg images don't support transparency, so
there's effectively no difference. Don't worry about it.
Now that you mention it, deleting old threads would probably affect some peoples
levels as well. Best to leave it alone, I doubt the forum is using much of the
site's resources compared to the gallery areas.
btw, wasn't there already a thread about this? *g*
- Will probably lead to more borderline-hentai stuff being submitted. But you
know that already...
- You don't know for sure that they /aren't/ from a series. Remember that it's
another 'Unknown' category you're creating.
- Some of these replies seem to think this will move the ecchi stuff out of
their sight if they don't want to see it, but it won't really. (I'm assuming:)
It won't be a new scan/etc type, just a new category. So it'll only really clean
up 'Unknown' and 'Other', you'll still see the same ecchi stuff if you browse
'female scans', 'all scans', etc.
I guess that's where the hiding-by-age comes in... but it'll only work for ecchi
images when the series is unknown? that's not really very effective.
Splitting a few themed subcategories (eg. Ecchi) off from
"Unknown/Other" could work quite well, just choose the topics
carefully (not too specific, not too broad). It is quite unwieldy the way it is
now.
Quote by Jim3535I seem to be experiencing
some server issues at the moment. At times some of the thumbnails fail to load
while browsing the gallery. The same ones every time I reload the page (even
with different browsers).
There do seem to be a bunch of
thumbnails missing.
All these gallery entries have 404 thumbnails:
9
92 - 99
842
898 - 999
8972 - 9999
(eg: http://thumbserver.minitokyo.net/thumbs/8972.jpg
doesn't exist)
and possibly others I haven't come across yet. There's sort of a pattern
there...
PNG files can handle transparency, are probably smaller than PSD, and aren't
software-dependent. You're limited to a single layer, but that's not so bad. PNG
is cool.
Heh, that must have been annoying. ^^; Still, stuff needed fixin'.
Quote by NurikoThis is the part that makes
me question a lot of things: Do people have a motive to report other than for
the benefit of the site?
Hmm, just wanting to stem the flow of misinformation, really. Because it's
incredibly annoying to see a wallpaper with the wrong artist or series name
emblazoned on it in delicately rendered text.
Plus, while this site has an impressive gallery, if things aren't sorted well
it's much less useful than it could be. Sorting also makes duplicates much
easier to spot, and so on. I was sort of surprised to see the script doesn't
reject duplicate uploads, though... it would save a few headaches if it did.
It already has: http://www.unisys.com/about__unisys/lzw
PNG has slightly better compression, but GIF is more widely supported. For small images with few colours, there isn't much difference between them.
Did you notice Participated Threads in the sidebar?

That's not a firefox issue, some of the thumbnails just don't exist on the server.

It might be that the gallery entry was deleted just before you posted.
