Why is Cosmus so much better than AutoGallery Pro? - GoFuckYourself.com

GiantGnome · 01-28-2005, 11:55 PM

Cosmus is $295 and AGP is $55
Whats the big deal with Cosmus? Whats it got that AGP doesnt?

eMonk · 01-29-2005, 12:00 AM

Cosmus is very good, they make the best pizza's in our town

modF · 01-29-2005, 12:05 AM

From reading the sites, I've not been able to figure it out. I have 7 copies of AGS, and it does pretty much everything I need it to do. I keep hear people swearing by Comus though.

BSleazy · 01-29-2005, 12:06 AM

Cosmus

sumphatpimp · 01-29-2005, 12:09 AM

surf a few AutoGallery sites then check out some Comus sites.
you'll see the difference.
the Comus script does a lot more.

Nicky · 01-29-2005, 12:18 AM

I just want to clearify that we have a pizza place called cosmus in my town, they make great pizza's, as for COMUS the script they are kinda the same but just not pizza's

Undisputed1 · 01-29-2005, 12:24 AM

i tried comus.... installed it... got errors... fuck comus, anything can be better

XxXotic · 01-29-2005, 12:39 AM

AGP = for people who want a "plug-n-play" quick TGP
comus = for people who have a clue

yes.. yes.. more like you. We need more people like you. I love comus, but fuck me if you think I want people to find out how powerful it really is.

just keep saying, "COMUS SUCKS!!!" Tell all your friends.

Jakke PNG · 01-29-2005, 01:03 AM

As far as I know comus is a lot more better for people with thumb-preview sites as it's thumb sorting is much more efficient than the one in AGS.

I have 5-6 otr 7 copies of ags and I'm quite happy with them and I'm not planning to switch them for comus anytime soon. I know I should, but it's

a) quite expensive
b) takes time
lol

wallst · 01-29-2005, 01:06 AM

outside of total gallery rotation per refresh - you cant beat comus, period. I will sum it up in three words - control, control, and control.

thats why its worth its weight,,,

jazzll · 01-29-2005, 01:24 AM

Some hosts have banned usage of Comus on their servers.
It is a MASSIVE resource hog according to many.

wallst · 01-29-2005, 02:35 AM

unless you manages the hardware or the pipe, who cares?

Like who for example? This is the first time I have heard of such a thing.

Der Schleicher · 01-29-2005, 10:33 AM

get a dedicated box.

There are like 40 or so sits with comus on em on one box no issues whatsoever.

Thurbs · 01-29-2005, 10:41 AM

I run both on different TGPs. Comus is definately much more powerful right out of the bag. Meaning, everything you need to do from Thumb Ratings, Integrating Trade Scripts, Auto Rebuilds, Multi-Size Thumbs, and more is readily available. I also think Comus has done a better job at presenting the options in the backend then AGS.

As for AGS, you can set rebuilds just like Comus, it's called using the included cron.cgi, with a little experimenting and help from friends since there is no good documentation for the advanced features, you can get most of the Comus features using go.php and setting specialized categories for different thumbsizes. I really like AGS for its initial simplicity but Comus has it beat with the abundance of features presented all at once. Of course if you're a tweaking person, you can literally add anything you want into the backend or pages generated with AGS since most of the driving script is easily edited.

If you really want to use JMB's scripts, just use TGP Rotator and forget submissions since its more fun to be greedy. The rotator has all the same backend features as AGS minus the Submissions.

xclusive · 01-29-2005, 11:00 AM

go dedicated and use comus like Juicy said in the long run you will be more productive
