My new TGP site - feedback wanted - GoFuckYourself.com

JimmyTheGeek · 06-24-2013, 09:19 AM

Hello, adult media pros. I have just completed an art-nudes TGP. The web address is:

http://freegalleri.es

It is built on all custom software, not using Crystal or whatever software is common today, and has a unique look and feel with varying sized thumbnails. If you have a minute, I would appreciate any feedback / criticism / suggestions you could provide.

Right now it features galleries from the Metart family only, but I am in the process of adding additional sponsors.

MainstreamGuy · 06-24-2013, 09:24 AM

Interesting...

Do people still make TGP's in year 2013?...

Harmon · 06-24-2013, 09:30 AM

These higher low resolution photos, coupled with the slow load times... it's fucking epically mind blowing. Not to mention the absolutely fantastic .ES extension. This is a sure winner and mind numbingly ground breaking!

Juicy D. Links · 06-24-2013, 09:32 AM

Make it TGP2 that is the latest craze

JimmyTheGeek · 06-24-2013, 09:40 AM

I feel I am about to get a good flaming, and that's all good, I can take it.

Here is a question of opinion though, I have left the thumbnails in high quality, making the page slow unless you are on broadband. Do you think this is a bad idea? I would prefer the higher quality thumbs because I only use broadband, but I can see how that could be a bad choice.

rocky1234 · 06-24-2013, 09:51 AM

amazing website. pay to see pictures.

fuzebox · 06-24-2013, 09:57 AM

Money in the bank

globofun · 06-24-2013, 10:08 AM

Too slow......

Tofu · 06-24-2013, 10:13 AM

1. Do you take submissions?
2. Where is your BBW category?
3. You TGP is very nice looking.

.

The Dawg · 06-24-2013, 10:51 AM

Looks good, but the thumbs are way too big.

trevesty · 06-24-2013, 11:21 AM

The page load times made me close out of it almost instantly..

_Richard_ · 06-24-2013, 11:22 AM

4 second delay on every click

other than that looks good.. may i suggest.. 'see sig'

JimmyTheGeek · 06-24-2013, 11:37 AM

Thank you for feedback, and I am adding more sponsors and will check out your sig link, Richard.

I think what I have learned here is I need to make it much faster, so I will work on that.

BTW, Tofu, it is sort of a fake TGW, I add all of the galleries and there is no BBW section yet.

abshard · 06-24-2013, 11:52 AM

Loaded it in IE, page full of different size thumbs nothing is clickable. Supposed to be like that? Tried it twice, seemed like IE was gonna crash became un responsive at times

abshard · 06-24-2013, 11:55 AM

Tried it in chrome and i can click the thumbs, IE8 just a page full of unclickable thumbs for me.

its set up right i see you know your stuff

dont sweat the haters

96ukssob · 06-24-2013, 12:56 PM

looks like.

keep in mind most people here don't know what they are talking about. I still pull in $$$$ from my TGP pictures sites per month, so don't sweat it.

Good content, no CJ's and you'll do well

JimmyTheGeek · 06-24-2013, 04:41 PM

Was able to reduce thumbnail size by 90% with only a slightly noticible dither to the images. Page now loads 10 times faster. Thanks for feedback.

Pingdom now rates it 84/100 on speed test. (Thanks Tony)

Good to finally see the TGP trend taking off.

that's what page caching and gzip compression are for...

geirlur · 06-25-2013, 07:58 AM

I like the different thumbsizes, looks nice. Don't like the background, colors etc though but I guess that's an easy fix

Best-In-BC · 06-25-2013, 08:38 AM

Change your back ground image!

Freax · 06-25-2013, 01:22 PM

TGPs @ 2013??? Why not. Easy layout, Site looks ok for me. The only really bad is, make it responsive or more smaller. Thinking: not everyone has a 21" Screen. Some surfing with small netbooks or pads. I hate this scrolling shit.

TGP4 = Linking to directly to join page with magic links.

Thank you guys for taking the time to check out the page, I really appreciate the comments.

Is the background too distracting? What would you do instead? Just clean white, maybe? I am pretty decent programmer, but not such a great designer. Maybe I should hire someone with design chops.

Marcus Aurelius · 06-25-2013, 10:35 PM

Looks like shit.

And who the hell makes TGPs in 2013? You are about 7 years late to the party.

Stop wasting your time because that website is not going to make any money.

k0nr4d · 06-25-2013, 10:41 PM

http://www.freegalleri.es/thumbs/nub...5924/thumb.jpg
http://www.freegalleri.es/thumbs/nub...8614/thumb.jpg

If you are storing each in a subdirectory of thumbs, you will hit the filesystem limit for directories in a directory (I think 32k) very quickly.

You need to do somethign like
http://www.freegalleri.es/thumbs/nub...5924/thumb.jpg

gladiator6 · 06-25-2013, 11:02 PM

Marcus Aurelius is absolutely right for regret. But I still search what to do to make more traffic with my 12 years old domains....

Stephen · 06-26-2013, 06:20 AM

Ignore the haters. Change the background / fonts (solid white or black would be better). Adopt a responsive layout.

I clicked 10 links and wasn't redirected once,
so you understand the phrase "good user experience," which puts you ahead of many here.

thumbuilderic · 06-26-2013, 06:52 AM

I'd strongly recommend the AWS free tier. You can build a CloudFront distribution and get a year of CDN services for free.

Why should anybody make them? Set up an automation script and let the galleries be generated for you on autopilot. And course don't forget to give your site a "modern look". E.g.: http://www.picz.org/

Thank you. I was unaware of that limitation.

It seems there are plenty of people lining up to make sure I know that I will not make money from this kind of site, but I guess maybe I need to learn the lesson for myself. I understand the concept that people out searching for free porn are unlikely to be converted to customers, but surely a very small fraction of a percentage will see something they like and decide they must have more. Even converting 1 in 50,000 visitors is enough to make money.

Not really when you factor in you need to pay for the server...

tonyparra · 06-26-2013, 11:03 AM

So a guy starts a legit clean site and asks for help on the biggest adult webmaster board, and half the post are bullshit ...you should have made a another tube i guess maybe they would be willing to help you

myjah · 07-19-2013, 11:18 PM

The MetArt thumbs look GREAT! Maybe it's just me, but I could instantly tell which thumbs were NOT MetArt....wonder if those will get more clicks from surfers out of sheer curiosity....like one of these things is not like the other.

as of 2013.. you're prolly going to work for $0.05 per hour and thats a lot..

deltav · 07-19-2013, 11:47 PM

Guess this thread's a few weeks old, but if the OP's still around - up the quality (i.e. lower the compression) on those thumbnails. The dithering looks pretty bad on my monitor when you've got a whole screen of them. You already have an uphill battle with a TGP in 2013, you don't want to compound that by making it look cheap.
