Considering I've made packs with over 400 images, I frankly don't see much point in trying to set some limit. However, I have given myself cut off points after which I need to stop getting images to actually, you know, put the pack out. That's the hardest part, especially if it's a character that gets new images at a steady rate.


If worse comes to worse and you still want to start adding more, you could always do update packs. I've been considering that for a long time, personally, especially for the Touhou packs I've made.

well thats the thing ive taken to adding upon alot of the old packs but at the same time i do not have any real image editor other than gimp so i can do my best to edit them but they will still end up huge to some people and small to those who have like terrabyte hardrives i myself have got like 80 gigs worth of images probably 30 gigs are just randos the rest are set for packs

I myself only have GIMP to hand edit images, so I know the pain of doing possibly hundreds of them at a time. A completely arbitrary rule that I go by, especially for less popular girls, is I try to get at least one image in ten different actions besides Profile and Presented to consider it a proper pack. It seems like a weird number, sure, but it's worked for me a lot.


So, the thing about all of this is... doing what you feel comfortable with. If you can bring yourself to put out a pack with hundreds of images, then do so. If you cannot, then do what you feel is enough. I've always tried to optimize my packs to have smaller images and be a smaller download, but if I was committed to that fully, I wouldn't have done a pack like Yuyuko, which is 404 images, or one of my mostly .GIF packs which can reach well over 100MB in size.


Besides all that, I always fully expect people to start modifying my packs on their end. Getting rid of images they don't like, pruning out larger ones if they feel like it, adding in new ones, changing file names, etc. because at the end of the day, my personal preferences are still reflected in the packs, even though I try hard to remain neutral. I've downloaded plenty of packs and altered them myself to my own liking.

My answer?  As many pics as i feel like renaming.


I refuse to care about pack size, although I have started compressing any packs i work on. Bandwidth and storage are historically cheap, and getting cheaper. If my pack is too big for you right now... see you in a year.

The thing about that is, I know there's a lot of places where you can indeed get internet access, but it's only dial up. Even here in the US there's a lot of places that don't have access to anything BUT dial up internet, so I try to keep my packs on the smaller scale for those people. Or people who have absurd data caps, because a lot of ISPs, frankly, suck ass.


As for optimization, well, I've always been a strong proponent for that sort of thing. I've always believed that to try and not reduce the size of something while still maintaining the quality is just a waste.

I like making big packs. I just go along with however many I can do. No need to really set a limit as far as I can tell. I'm more focus on having animated GIFs if possible (albeit that's harder to accomplish with anime/cartoon packs), and getting as many tags fulfilled. I honestly wish there were more tags that could be utilized in game, but maybe that's something we can hope for in WM7. I should be getting into compressing my packs though, but I'm unsure what program I could utilize for that.

Discord would be a good idea then there would be a way to collaborate a bit better on packs. Also good job on these packs, long time user.

Sorry to hijack a thread with phenomenal resources for the community (  ;D  ) , but here's a website that helps me a TONNE:

https://www.bulkresizephotos.com


Works super fast and resizes all of your photos in a heartbeat. I usually sort my folder by dimensions and drag-n-drop anything over 1200 or so into the site, and resize to "longest edge" to 1200px. Can take a 250Mb pack of large images to 70Mb in seconds. Does NOT require uploading all the images, so it's very very fast.
Doesn't work on GIFs as far as I know.
Can't wait for WEBM support.

I've been using the portable version of Caesium to compress images. It's free and can mass compress and resize images. You can find it here :- https://saerasoft.com/caesium/


GIFmicro is the one I'm currently using for gif compression but find that most online gif compression sites do a better job. The trouble with the online variants is that you can only do one at a time, where as GIFmicro can compress multiple gifs at once and doesn't require internet connection. If you're interested in that you can find it here :- http://www.romeolight.com/products/gifmicro/
