Popular Post TotallyOz Posted January 26, 2023 Popular Post Posted January 26, 2023 We have used up all the space on a massive server (photos and videos forum) and we have to upgrade SSD Drive. The hosting company will do this and the server may be down for a bit while this is happening. Sorry for the inconvenience. The server has been slow for a few days as the space was slowly eating away the memory. Thanks to those that reached out to tell me this was happening to them as well. Now, we will apply some fixes.

TotallyOz Posted January 26, 2023 Author Posted January 26, 2023 Thank you gentlemen, I appreciate it. The site does not make money but I do believe it provides valuable information to a group of men (like myself) that helps us in our travels. Totally worth it IMHO My big regret was not keeping the name Boytoy for the site as in the age of OnlyFans, etc, it would be easy to get guys to promote and more posters. I still may use that name in the future as the "guide" part of this site (front end) does not see to be of any value even though it took tons of time. LOL khaolakguy, TMax and Latbear4blk 3 Quote

Members Latbear4blk Posted January 27, 2023 Members Posted January 27, 2023 I guess some posters of pictures know this, but some may not. There is a free website that you can use to reduce the images size: https://tinypng.com If you pass every photo you want to post through that website, you will be helping with the space challenge.

I have used www.shrinkpictures.com for years. As long as the original is not more than 6mb it will downsize to 150kb or less with no noticeable drop in quality. Latbear4blk 1 Quote

And I love the way you're so open and honest as above re "the figures" and aren't one of these " oh this site is raking me in a 6 figure income every month and I'm an internet millionaire 5 times over ( maybe you ARE already I dont know ) Either way, it's always refreshing to nice to hear the good and bad of running sites including what's working and what's not or didn't when you ( and probably we too) had always assumed it might and that you were / are raking it in from the addition of such pages etc. As you already alluded to though money's not everything and I'm glad that you too find the site a good use of your time and enjoyable just as we all seem to. Thanks. vinapu, TotallyOz and alvnv 3 Quote
