Hey! I added you after seeing your post in another community (movies-wise) and noticed your Tiefling Warlock icon... are you playing D&D Tiny Adventures over on Facebook? If so, please feel free to add me and I'll Buff/Heal you as often as possible! Search for me via e-mail at dmcamr at yahoo dot com
Hey! Sorry for the late reply- I'm adding you back now~ :D I am not, I'll have to go check it out! Thanks for the heads up~
judging by your icons, we've got a lot of common interests - do you want to be friends?
Oh totally! Anyone who's a fan of Doctor Who, Merlin, Robin Hood, John Simm, Jane Austen, etc etc is amazing in my book. Adding you now~ :)
exactly what i thought about you! :D
I randomly wandered over to your journal today and kind of instantly fell in love with you because of the double shot of your Merlin icon and drunk!Chace friends only banner. AND THEN SOME MORE when I saw your userpics (Drusilla! Harmony! Spike! Doctor Who/Torchwood! Supernatural!).
SO. Friends, maybe?
SO. Friends, maybe?
YAY FOR drunk!CHASE and Merlin!!!! :D
holy crap YES FRIENDS! <333 Adding you now! *heeee*

elitescifi's entry page with irrelevant comments of my own!)
Haha, it's a small world when you find someone whose caps you admire.. and then find out they know about you too ;)
Sucks about your host - I hope that means you've moved on to another - better - one? And even though i-a-d is in a funk, it still looks fuNkin' awesome! I've been meaning to re-do all my layouts for a while now, but work... eh. So busy.
Do you mind if I ask how you get your Farscape caps so big? I haven't been able to find a higher quality source than the DVDs, and any time to try to make them larger than the standard size, they get so pixellated! I'm tempted to just give up farscapecaps.com and point everyone in your direction!
elitescifi's entry page with irrelevant comments of my own!)Wow! Thanks so much! Seriously means a lot b/c I know of your cap sites very well and they're amazing! haha, but HQ caps is what it's all about! My site is currently in a state of major funk though b/c our host disabled our previous gallery, I'm finishing up classes and so it's insanity, haha!

Haha! Good idea! I almost didn't reply to your previous comment because I felt bad about spamming.. but it was so nice I couldn't NOT! haha :D
Well I remember when farscape-caps.com closed, I was SO SAD. And then I found your site and it was like a savior. :)
Yeah, we moved from Lunarpages to hostgator doe IAD.com. We actually have 3 different hosts.. Hostgator, hostmonster and powweb. lol, before lunarpages we had godaddy (where our galleries got hacked and then they told us to take down all our zip files).
Basically, we have the WORST luck with hosts, and have recently found out that we're too large for one host, and I'm not rich enough to buy a dedicated server.
and thank you! :) If we're going to be in a funk, I like to have it at least look decent (it's the ocd designer in me). I LOVE your layouts! They're so clean and neat and very very lovely. Also, I feel ya on the *so busy* part.
Of course I don't mind! What program do you use for capping? I've found that makes a BIG difference. Also - I use the dvds, set to cap at a larger size (not *too* much larger), cap to pngs and then convert them hq jps.
Oh and please don't give up farscapecaps.com! haha - I don't own the dvds, I've been getting them from netflix, so who knows how long the caps will last. I just figured I'd cap them while I've got 'em. :)
So for your sites, is it just you and one other capper? I'm actually quite jealous. With as many cappers as IAD has, it seems like it would nice to be just simple and not worry about everyone getting along, and people fighting over who's capping what. *sigh* I never expected to get so *big* - lol, i just wanted a home for my caps.
Anyway- sorry for rambling! haha, :D

For cap-that.com & farscapecaps.com it's just me and ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
artphilia - but she's probably busier than I am! We tend to do different shows so that we're not capping the same episodes twice - it's happened before. I used to help the lady that owned farscape-caps.com, so I was just as devistated as you when it went down! As great as the caps were, I'd just feel so BAD re-uploading them without her permission, so.. the mad Farscape capping spree began. It's fun. I get a bit sick of it every now and then, but it's like a promise I've got to keep to myself or something.
I always try and do a few episodes of something every month.. I just feel so guilty if I don't!
Programs - I currently use WinDVD. I use an older one, actually (Version 4) as I really don't like the way the newer ones work. Picky, huh? I tried using PowerDVD and VLC, but the quality was the same for extra work. I was able to make larger caps on PowerDVD, but the quality wasn't always the best.
Hosting - I currently use SurpassHosting.com. I have a reseller for myself (and my bazillion sites), but their shared hosting is REALLY cheap. I've been with them for a few years, and after a few initial teething problems ... I get along great with them. I'd highly recommend them if space & bandwidth is an issue!
Layouts - funny you shoudl say you like mine. I'm one of those people that likes it for a month.. and then can't believe I ever let it out in public! cap-that.com is shamefully overdue, however. Speaking of.. I hope you don't mind if I link your site? I've been meaning to update the links for a while.
Also - I hope you don't mind if I friend you. No obligation to friend me back ;)

I'm about to sign off for the night *sleepy time* but I will properly reply in the morning (just so you don't think I abandoned you, heh(
I totally don't mind you friending me! I'm friending you back for sure! :D

Did the owner of farscape-caps tell you she wasn't renewing the hosting, or did she just shut down and that was that?
I know what you mean about getting sick of capping, I'll go on HUGE capping tangents and cap like crazy, and then I'll die and not want anything to do with it for the rest of the month, lol.
Exactly, I feel bad if I go a month without at least capping something.
Ohh, see I'm a Mac user, and as far as capping goes, resources are very very limited, haha. So I have a program from xilosoft - it autocaps (I prefer manual, but it's hard to find a quality capping program for mac that makes quality caps. I basically run the autocap and end up with something like 6,000 caps and then just weed out the bad ones. Takes forever, but it's my biggest pet peeve when people put an avi file on autocap, end up with 9,000 caps that are crappy quality, and then ask people to credit them. Seriously.. anyone can do that. *sigh*
I'll have to look into that if we ever need another host. I never have space or bandwidth issues, it's the CPU limits that kill us. My dream is to one day *magically* have enough time to figure out how to run a server from my home and just do self hosting. I love big projects like that
Haha! I'm one of those people who likes my layouts for about a day, and then think "WOW! What was I thinking?!" lol - I've gotten as far as getting the entire layout coded, and then trashing it bc i hate it. (Which is one of the reasons why we still don't have a layout.. haha)
I was going to suggest affiliating! Once IAD has an affiliation page, we will totally link back to you! :D Our two year birthday is coming up the first of the year, so I'm hoping that we will have everything up by then! :D

I totally know what you mean! I've tried doing the autocap & weeding method before.. but it wasn't me. Not at the moment, anyway. Right now I literally go through the episode frame-by-frame and take a snap when I think I've found a nice one. Usually about 10 caps per minute? But it takes about 2 hours or so to do - unless my computer plays up (like it has now while I'm capping Battlestar *growls*)
CPU usage issues - is that to do with the script your using? Coppermine IS a bit of a resource hog (from what I'm aware), which is a reason I don't use it.

Oh, no.
saava has just been a little sparse in her internet activities the last year or two. It was a great project, and I'd sent her emails asking if she needed help, hosting, payments for the domain name.. anything, really. But she never responded. I guess her RL is just too busy, which is totally fine. I just wish there was a way to save it before it disappeared *sigh*And congratulations on 2 years! I think I'll be doing a re-design for our two-years, as well. Hehe, good thing I have 7 months to go ;) Oh, and I'd be totally proud to affiliate with your site!

I did that with Doctor Horrible's Sing Along Blog caps, because I could only cap it throug itunes, so I had to use Mac's version of Print Screen (which is actually a lot better, it saves the screencap instead of just copying it to clipboard) and it took me HOURS. lol

Actually - We haven't run into very many with Coppermine only because we tend to make all the thumbs first.. but It was our old gallery script Gallery2 that was hogging the world, lol. I wish I could use just a simple gallery script, but I have to admit, I'm in love with being able to see how many views a cap gets etc etc.
I totally understand RL getting in the way, I've abandoned a ton of fan sites/listings/etc that I had when I was in highschool and put SO MUCH time into - and then life started and I got a real job full time and they all just died. BUt I agree, it's sad to see all that hard work just vanish.
ANd thank you!! :D
Hi there! Judging from your profile we have lots of things in common, so friends?
Ohhh TOTALLY! I was all ready to say yes based ONLY on the fact that you are using a Thelma icon.. But I see you like SGA, SG-1, BSG and Farscape and that got me REALLY excited! haha!
Adding you now! :D
Adding you now! :D
This is me finally getting some stuff together and realizing that we should be friends.
Haha! I was thinking the *same* thing! adding you now! :D
