My site is currently 583MB and the very likely reality that I'm going to run out of storage space soon unless I stop using excessive gifs of gameplay footage in my reviews is killing me hfhdghfjhkj

583MB is actually the best amount of MB to have.

Don't stop the signal! I use https://ezgif.com/video-to-gif as a really quick and dirty way to resize and reduce quality and file size.

Host your images somewhere else. I've been sing imgbb. Back in the day anytime I ran out of space on geocities I would just register a new account. Alternatively I think you could get away with using archive.org to host images for free. I use archive.org to host a ton of mp3 files for my purposes.

If you want an offline option for GIF optimisation (might be hard to do since it's footage), I recommend gifsicle. For editing the video before turning it into a GIF (like reducing the frame rate or something else) ffmpeg can do that (also offline). Also as jerryscoolpage mentioned, you can host videos on another platform and link to them (YouTube, PeerTube, somewhere else)

Thanks for suggestions everyone! I'm hesitant to host elsewhere since I don't want to run into issues if the image hosting platform goes down or changes hotlinking policies, but I'lll see what options are available if it comes to that. I actually use ezgif already @p7uen!

New review is up, looking at Cave Story on Mega Drive https://overclockworked.neocities.org/segaages/cavestory/

I don't know how this happened but I always thought I knew what Cave Story was, it turns out I was thinking of a game called Knytt this whole time. Great review!

Knytt is very much of that same era of freeware indies, so makes sense! It's something I need to play through myself some time.

can you use the Opera browser? I use its free built-in VPN when browsing neocities and forums to avoid this!

@sprout i don't trust opera and i'm trying to cut down on malicious software, i have considered a vpn though

I use NordVPN because I got a deal on it from a YouTuber back in the day. It works fine for this sort of thing. But I agree it sucks so bad to see so many websites become purple gradient boxes without one :'(

New review is up, looking at the Master System port of Shinobi: https://overclockworked.neocities.org/segaages/shinobi/

Casually changing contact damage for an entire game seems like a crazy decision to make.

overclockworked 6 months ago

@p7uen Yeah, that summarises why Master System Shinobi feels so odd to me. Level design and enemy design clearly tailored for mechanics that this version of the game doesn't have feels... odd.

could it be possible that neocities is using a bot to ban people because i’ve heard so many talk about how their sites were randomly deleted with no explanation

this is setting a really depressing future for neocities, a site that prides itself on being an outlet for expression shouldn’t be banning people this easily. now i feel like i’m in a minefield
