Another Cammy
When in doubt, do Cammy getting skewered…
This one’s under login, the test of making stuff freely available just wasn’t working out, traffic actually dropped significantly (Could be coincidence, but certainly not encouraging) and there was no increase in secondary sources of income like j-list purchases or sponsor sites (Those paysites on the right there) which was the idea all along.
Though if someone with login access wants to repost it somewhere else I won’t complain too much, I guess…
I’m still open to the funding concept if there’s interest, but it’ll have to be rethought. I’m thinking of using my twitter for short announcements and user interaction, btw…

Working on some elaborate Cammy bjs
Site redesign
Ended up using the default wordpress theme, it has a lot of customizable widgets and shit, the old one was too primitive and hobbled. Will change a bunch of things over the next few days and weeks, that header image, an intro page explaining the funding thing with images (Nobody is reading this), etc…
On reposting
I’ve always allowed reposting of anything I put here on the open, since from now on I’m going to be posting 99% of everything free I thought I should restate my position.
I prefer if you hotlink! Dreamhost gives me a ton of bandwith of which I use less than 10%
If you hotlink I can see where it’s linked and maybe check out what people are saying about it.
Uploading to an image host is not doing me a favour, those guys run their own ads and profit off my work that way, plus they will delete eventually, leaving you with broken links. I tend not to delete anything (Again, dreamhost, tons of disk space) and sometimes I’ll upload updated versions of the same file replacing flawed ones.
If it’s an imageboard where you have to upload, then that’s fine too, it’s the way they work. In any case, a clickable link back, if allowed, is very, very welcome! Sure people can read the url on the image, then type it in their browser bar and come visit, but few do, a click is a lot easier. And a link is followed by search engine robots and they use how many links a website has to determine how important it is.
Finally, about the url stamp, I’m afraid they are absolutely necessary – I know people don’t like them, and I noticed people reposted the versions without the stamps while ignoring ones that did have the url on them, but I’m not running some site that automatically stamps every image they come accross, I spend hours making this stuff and without the url on it it just becomes free content for a thousand generic gallery sites. So if you like an image enough to repost it without the urls, please consider doing so with them too.
