!ponyfolder slow but steady progress.. http://ur1.ca/9tye6
Wednesday, 25-Jul-12 09:52:31 UTC from web-
@pony Wow, that looks like it would take forever... :x
-
@pony Where's the point in waiting that long?
-
@omni @marsh yeah. the seeding appears to be pretty poor, and for some odd reason I'm having trouble with my work connection in Ubuntu. Windows doesn't have any trouble, just Ubuntu oddly.. I've been working on this download for 2 weeks now (if you don't count the first week when I tried downloading it using a live CD). Part of the delay is due to the fact that my home network, run by my university (student housing yadda yadda), blocks torrents so I'm only able to download torrents at work, roughly 7 hours at a time, 4 nights per week. @abigpony The point of downloading it is so that I can posess a somewhat rare and extremely large collection of pony pics. I'll be making it available to others who don't have the patience once I'm finished, and hopefully we'll be able to organize it.
-
@pony Why not just, like, find and save the ones you want?
-
@abigpony Because rare collection, duh!
-
@abigpony obsession. xP
-
@pony The seeding is poor because most clients choke on it.
-
@redenchilada yeah. that's what I figure too.
-
@pony this makes me realize I know nothing about anything :l
-
@pony No, like, seriously, that doesn't seem practical at all.
-
@omni I hate everyone.
-
@abigpony Welcome to my world
-
@marsh There there! Your auntie Pinkie Pie has it all taken care of!
-
@abigpony xD obsession is rarely practical.
-
@pony okay 0_0
-
@marsh do you have a ponyfolder?
-
@omni I've been in this world my entire life, pal.
-
@pony you mean the ponibooru ones?
-
@abigpony Huh, why haven't I seen you here before then? :x
-
@pony It's just... I see no raisin.
-
@marsh I just mean in general do you collect pony pics?
-
@omni Been hiding away from everyone
-
@pony um I usually just grab stuff and put it on my phone. So I guess its that . It's up to 2000+ pics.
-
@marsh nice :) do you organize them at all?

@pony nnoppee it becomes a drag sometimes http://ur1.ca/9tyj4
-
@pony Whatever. I don't wanna argue with them.
-
@marsh hmm.. I've been working out a system for months now, but organizing pony pics is tricky.
-
@abigpony with the dictionary writers?
-
@marsh You misspelled "Changeling" :x
-
@omni my keyboard is effed up due to mods and stuff so I don't have time for corrections
-
@marsh Hmmm, okay o,o
-
@pony indeed its something I've got to get on
-
@omni lol I mess with my phone a lot and sometimes I miss stuff
-
@marsh it's mostly the macro pics I'm not sure about.. I've been keeping them separate from the others and divided by which pony is featured in each, but that doesn't always work well when I'm looking for something specific (and the thumbnails are too small to read usually).. I'll be re-organizing them sooner or later. I should probably look for some decent image library software to help me.
-
@pony on your phone?
-
@marsh nope. My collection could have fit on my SD card before the ponibooru download, but not, not so much. I haven't decided how/whether to merge the ponibooru sets with my own.
-
@pony I can't help, this kindof stuff I'm dumb. 9_6 sorry
-
@marsh hmm.. That gives me an idea. Maybe I can find some good advice/guides to organizing images online. The other problem is that I want to make my collection available for download, but it's far too large for any free service.. idk xP
-
@pony Package it as a torrent?
-
@eaglehooves oh yeah. that's one possibility, but unfortunately my home network blocks torrents. I need a way to get around thier blocks i guess.
-
@pony believe me there are services out there. I will tell you asap when I find it. That would be awesome for you to do.
-
@marsh It would have to handle huge files.. I could slpit the archive into 10 GB each but i'd rather not have to.
