September 2003 Updates

9.30.03 - Some Updates

I updated every category in the Inuyasha section (minus scans and caps) with roughly 160 new images. I also gave Miroku his own section.

I'm going to try and update the fanart section tomorrow, and by the end of the week I'm planning on updating the Tenchi Muyo! section with about 100 or so new images.

The parts of the Dragon Ball section that were taken down will come back either later this week or early next week. I need to clean up the section and get rid of repeated and poor quality images. I haven't really worked on that section in probably a year.

On bandwidth, as of 9.30.03 at 1:07 a.m. the site has used 42 GB and 668 MB of bandwidth. I wasn't joking about the bandwidth situation this month. Last month the site used 31 GB, this month has used well over 10 GB more last month. We'll barely make it this month, even after I added 5 GB more to the site. I'm hoping the site uses only 1 GB today, or it might be shut down for a few hours. Oh well, if it does, it does.

That's it for today, later!


9.29.03 - Messageboard Back Up!

I had a database problem, so I had to reinstall the board. People that had registered before, please register again. Sorry.


9.24.03 - Some good news!

I went through a bunch of annoying things, but I got the bandwidth upgraded. I have a reseller account, so I have a good amount to spare. Problem is that I have to do everything myself, I just can't email my host and say 'can you add an additional 5 GB to that domain for me?'.

Oh well, this should buy some time. If the site uses over 45 GB, I'm just gonna let it shutdown for the remainder of the month. It shouldn't, but if it does you know I know about it. Don't contact me if it does.


9.24.03 - Ugh...

Well, the site might or might not get shutdown before the month's over. I'm having some issues with WHM, so I don't know if the bandwidth upgraded or not. At the moment, the site has used 32 GB of it's 40 GB. I reset it at 45 GB but I'm getting little errors, so I don't know. If it shuts down, it shuts down.

Oh well, being without images for a couple days won't kill you. ^_^


9.20.03 - o_O

Ack!

:heart attack:

Even after I cut all that crap out the site has used a ton of bandwidth again! 27 GB in 20 days. I think the only real solution is for me to add some more bandwidth. I'm thinking of uping it to 45 GB, but if it goes over I'm just gonna let the site get shut down for the remainder of the month. There's no way to avoid it. Oh well, no updates today. Just me ranting. ^_^


9.16.03 - Stuff down..blah

I should note that I also took down the episode images in the Inuyasha section. Everything that has been taken down will return at the beginning of next month. At the moment, the site is 5 GB ahead in bandwidth than where I'd like it to be. If I don't do this, the site will exeed it's bandwidth allocation before the month is over.

Deal with it! Don't contact me about it, you're not going to change my mind until October 1st.


9.14.03 - Inuyasha Movie 2: The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass

Yep, I finished making screencaps of it and have now made it available. 823 screencaps! I also temporarily cut the episodes section. Remember, temporarily. It's coming back. :)


9.13.03 - Dragon Ball section downsized

I just finished downsizing the Dragon Ball section a lot. It's now mainly a Dragon Ball section, ie not really DBZ/DBGT. Go to the section for an explanation, but if you had been reading my updates lately you'd probably would already know why.

On a better note, I am working on some new stuff for the site. You can expect something new and big in a day or so. ;)


9.10.03 - Messageboard back online!

The messageboard is now back online. It's now powered by Phpbb and is hosted at my other site, Amber-Nights.net (which is still in it's beginning stages and is quite small). This is a shared board, and is shared between both sites. I haven't made the board available to the other site yet, so that's why it's quite dead.

If you post there, you need to first register. Please read the rules in the Miscellaneous section. You can find the board here.

That's all for today. :)


9.09.03 - ...

Well, it looks like the bandwidth has calmed down. I'm thinking it's because of Inuyasha's return to AS.

:raises shaky fist and curses them!:

If the bandwidth goes up again I will temporary drop Dragon Ball. Hopefully it doesn't.


9.07.03 - Note on bandwidth

The past couple days the site's bandwidth has soared. Normally the site uses around 1 GB a day, but the past couple days it has used roughly 2 GB a day. If this keeps up I'm going to temporarily close down the Dragon Ball section, just until the bandwidth goes down. If the site uses 2 GB again by tomorrow I'm closing it tomorrow. Sorry, but if I don't the whole site will be shut down for 1/3 of the month. I'd rather have 1/7 of the site shut down for a month than the whole site. We'll see by tomorrow.


9.05.03 - More scans

Added more scans to Volume 9, this time I added chapter 3. That's 18 more scans, with a total of 58 scans for Volume 9. Now I'll go and work on the next chapter. ^_^


9.03.03 - Inuyasha Volume 9 Scans

I went ahead and redid the volume 9 scans. I completely scanned the first two chapters of the volume, for a total of 40 scans. I'm going to slowly work on scanning some more chapters. I doubt I'll scan the whole volume though. I think I'll just scan the Peach Man arc, and then I'll start on Volume 16. Enjoy!


9.02.03 - New layout and section!

Well, I changed the layout. The last one had been up since around April or May, so I decided to change it. Also, the other one was meant more for Spring. I think this'll fit fall and winter better. I also added FLCL to the site, it's a little section and is going to stay little. Later today I'm gonna change the layout on the guestbook to match the site, as well the error pages. If you don't like this layout, tough. I'm not changing it (for reasons, read the post from earlier today). That's it!


9.02.03 - Fanart section updated, and other stuff...

I updated the fanart section with two new fanarts. I'm working on a new layout for the site. Since bandwidth is so high I'm making a bandwidth friendly layout. Did you know this site uses roughly 1 GB of bandwidth a day? No problem though, I've allocated this site 40 GB a month. If it ever uses that much, I'm just going to let the account be suspended for the remainder of the month. I have a reseller account and much more bandwidth to spare, but I'm never going to let this site go over 40 GB a month. I'll cut this site in half before that happens.
