The Quest Continues

...Sorry to keep posting about my blog/archive troubles, but it does affect the future of these projects.... maybe I'll go back and decorate them with tasty illustrations later... But here is the latest news:

The move over to Tumblr is proceeding as well as can be expected-- at 250 posts per day, it will still take about a week to get everything over there. My experiments with making new posts there has run into a little glitch though. When I upload images directly to Tumblr, they are sized-down... I don't like that. So, searching for a way to work around this, last night I found that I could upload to Picasaweb at an amazingly fast rate-- much, much faster than at Blogger-- and then post HTML link code into Tumblr. Et voilà! Problem solved! Full-sized images, with the added advantage of being saved at two sites simultaneously for better security!

But not so fast, there, Mr. Dekk! This morning I got a message from "Google Plus"-- which I wasn't even aware I was using-- that I had been violating their adult content policies... I guess here's how it goes: Blogger allows adult content, and it uses Picasaweb to store its images... however, Picasaweb has a policy against adult content... nice inconsistency there... So if you post to Picasaweb through Blogger, that's OK, but if you post directly to Picasaweb, that's a violation... I guess... Which means I'm back to figuring out how to post to Tumblr full-sized, or finding a different image storage site...

Does everyone have this sort of trouble? I don't see why they should... I must be going about this wrong...

P.S. (March 8, 2015) OK, I THINK I might have found out a solution to this problem. Instead of using the "Text" variant of posting under Blogger, with image attached (this gives the downsized image), post the image as "Photo". Now, whether I also have to make a separate Text post to get it to show in the archive, or whether the "Photo" posts will post right along with the Text ones, I don't know, since I've reached my max posts for the day and can't test this theory yet. The only problem I see with the "Photo" option is that it doesn't allow a Title (that I can see anyway), just descriptive text. That might be OK, or making a text post with a link to the photo post might work too (it looks like some other blogs do this)... Anyway, above you see the JAV cover I've been using as my guinea pig on this project-- Shiori Tsukada (whom we met in GAS-305) in PZD-019.

P.P.S. (March 8, 2015) OK-- the post "Photo" option DOES give larger images, and links to the original sized image... BUT it doesn't allow a Title for the post... I searched the Internet and found complex work-arounds to this, with pages full of code, and just thought, "How FUCKING stupid!" Why the hell wouldn't they just put a space for a title, as with Text posts!? Jesus Christ!... So now I've got to decide whether to have posts with smaller images, with a title, or title-less posts with fuller-sized images... or maybe double-post-- one blog just for Photo posts, then a blog with Text posts with code linking to the images...

I've opted for the last solution. I started up a separate Photo-only blog. This allows 10 images per post. I tested it out with the first ten Kyonyû etsuraku series videos:

Then linked those images into Text posts in the main JAV blog:
http://dekkappaijav.tumblr.com/tagged/Kyony%C3%BB-etsuraku-series
This allows Titles, Video information, a fuller image, with a click-link to the complete full-sized image. Pretty much just how I want it. This will involve a  little extra work, but the images upload much faster than at Blogger. Once I've got the posting process worked out, it should go smoothly and quickly enough.

P.P.P.S. (3/9/2015) I think I've worked out all the kinks, and have put my posting routine at Tumblr into some recognizable, logical order today. In the first test-drive I started in earnest on the Kyonyû etsuraku series. I was able to upload about 88 images at the image blog in an amazingly fast amount of time compared to Blogger, which has about the most illogical, clunkiest, unreliable image interface their engineers could possibly design. I made 20 full Text posts at the JAV archive in a reasonable amount of time, with links to the image blog, and then back-links from the image blog to the main blog, for users who happen upon the image blog rather than the main blog. Things seem to be falling into place. I'll continue making a few more posts for the rest of the day, then spend the rest of my allotted 250 daily posts in transferring the Pink blog over just before midnight, EST.

Last GAS for 2013 GAS-305-308

It's high time to post again here, so let's look in at the most recent releases coming from Akira Takatsuki and his fine DVD label, Cinema Unit GAS.

These four DVDs are due to be released on December 21, 2013. Also, there have been a couple changes to the Cinema Unit GAS site format this month. For one, each of the pages to these DVDs now offer 20 sample images, rather than 8 as there used to be. And now, the downloadable sample video clips are in Windows and Smartphone / Mac formats. First off the hopper is Gyôretsu no dekiru paizuri-ya-san: Tsukada Shiori shita de machiuke kyôsha, gokkun! (GAS-305).

Shiori Tsukada in GAS-305

This one stars newcomer 101cm J-cup Shiori Tsukada (塚田詩織). You can take a look at the video clip in Windows format and Smartphone / Mac formats.

The next release is Ero-i ishô de yari makuru: Cosplay sex zanmai Shinoda Mei (GAS-306). It stars 110cm J-cup Mei Shinoda (しのだ芽衣) whom we saw in a post on her August debut, and a post on her second appearance in October.

Mei Shinoda in GAS-306

The sample video clip to this post-lactation appearance (her second DVD was a milky one) can be downloaded in Windows format or Smartphone / Mac formats.

Out of the three December releases with new material, the third-- Bakunyû to hotel ni shike konde momimomi: Tori oroshi hamedori special (GAS-307)-- looks like the one I will like best.

Rosa in GAS-307

It features two big, busty beauties whom we have seen before. First in the video clip is nice and chubby half-Latin 120cm K-cup Rosa (ローザ), whom we encountered this year in posts in July and September. At first I thought she was a bit thin, but she seems to be filling out nicely. I just wish she'd let us see her face.

Yû Ogawa in GAS-307

And GAS veteran, 105cm-I cup Yû Ogawa (緒川ゆう) returns to the label. After her debut for GAS in The Super Big Tits Yuu GAS-015 (September 2005), she appeared in nine for the studio. Her AV-Channel profile lists only 20 videos, though I thought she'd had a more extensive post-GAS career... This December release will be the now pleasingly matured Yû's first for the label since GAS-180 came out back in September 2010. The video sample giving glimpses of these two lovely ladies in action can be seen in Windows format or Smartphone / Mac formats.

As is traditional, the final release of the year is an annual summary. This one selects the best scenes from 19 girls who have performed for the label in 2013, and is titled Bakunyû best 2013 4-jikan: 19-nin no best scene subete misemasu (GAS-308).

Sara Himeno in GAS-308

The entry at the GAS site lists the four-hour DVD as including Jun Minami (美波じゅん), Rino Momoi (ももい理乃), Yû Sakura (さくら悠), Mei Shinoda (しのだ芽衣), Nana Matsuzaki (松崎なな), and others. Other favorites, such as Sara Himeno-- above-- can be seen in the sample video clip, in Windows format or Smartphone / Mac formats.
