Question For MGP Owners??? - GoFuckYourself.com

Jake · 06-05-2006, 01:46 PM

It seems that the standard for movie galleries is a total of 1 minute of video per gallery. My question is: What?s the preferred distribution of video for a hosted movie gallery?

Two 30 second clips
or
Three 20 second clips
or
Four 15 second clips
or
Five 12 second clips
or
Six 10 second clips

Your input is greatly appreciated as we're going to be pumping out a bunch of hosted movie galleries for NaughtyAllie & NaughtyJulie!

The new standard is 60x 1 sec clips.

Blame it on MTV

Jake · 06-05-2006, 03:38 PM

Bump....

sandman! · 06-05-2006, 03:39 PM

3 clips.......

FreeHugeMovies · 06-05-2006, 03:45 PM

3 - 5 clips but always at least 15 seconds of play time IMO

funny thing in 1999 as a surfer I was happy to find a shitty quality 7 seconds porn clip........

at least 12 seconds, 4 or 5 movies is nice.
But what is also important is how you display your movies.
Nice large clean pictures of the movies are much more attractive than blurry image caps from the videos.
Take a look at the sapphic movie galleries if you want a good example. Make nice thumbs/screencaps for your videos. No dark, shady or blurry stuff. If they don't look clean enough edit them with photoshop. The layout says a lot about what the user can expect in the members area. Many programs create their movie galleries in bulk but don't spend to much time on the quality of their screen caps for the videos.
A good standard are the galleries from traffic cash gold imo.

Spunky · 06-05-2006, 04:48 PM

Seems like the standard is 4 clips about 19 secs each

gfx3 · 06-05-2006, 04:50 PM

Another thing about your picture galleries. You use hyperlink protection wich is your good right but for some webmasters who are using scripts your hyperlink protection on the images is giving extra work (need to save every image before we can use it with certain scripts for example)

Most programs don't use hyperlink protection, they have a watermark so each picture that is hyperlinked is extra free advertising for your girls so the extra bandwidth costs are equal to advertising costs.

3 times 20 second clips seems to work for us.

Good information, thank you!

And remember if your caps suck, so will your conversions.

I would imagine so. Thanks!

Jake · 06-06-2006, 08:21 AM

Any further input on this?

Jake · 06-06-2006, 09:24 AM

Oh sorry, not sure what I was thinking posting an actual business thread.

gfx3 · 06-06-2006, 09:51 AM

Best thing is to use mgp format since many folks have problems with wmv on their older computers.

Arousal Design · 06-06-2006, 12:24 PM

gfx3, good tips thanks.

So would you guys agree 4 15-20 second mpg clips with quality thumbs is the way to go?

Anal Hobbit · 06-06-2006, 12:26 PM

Four 15's would rock..

Im sure that would be BP4L approved..

Anal Hobbit · 06-06-2006, 12:30 PM

Make sure the screen caps or pics link to the vid on the gallery are very good quality and and clear pics..

Sites like boneprone will never be able to list your galleries if the image on the gallery that links to the mpeg is not quality..

Many thumb sites crop the images you have on the gallery. And many movie hosted gallery owners overlook the importance of a good image-s on the gallery and use a grainly low quality screen cap as the image to the 15 second clip.

This will really hurt your chances of staying at the top of a MGP site like boneprone which is based on productivity.. The more hits a gallery gets on sites like his, the longer your gallery stays up there.

And if its a bad image displayed, your shit will never be seen..

Make sence?

Anal Hobbit · 06-06-2006, 12:31 PM

Hence the reason why perfectgonzo does Sooooooooooooo well in the MGP world.

Sparks · 06-06-2006, 12:35 PM

I use 3-6 vids per gallery depending on the video and that works well for me. I won't do any clips less than 10 seconds in length.

Good luck!
