1) what is this site all about?
it is a digital archive
of japanese idol publications,
and a resource for those with interest in the topic.
The photo gallerys are
updated often.
Find the link to the "what's new" page at the top of the
photo gallery index.
Subscription is necessary
to help pay for server costs and materials.
It is fair that a user share the expense.
If content of a web site is valued, it should be paid for.
4a) the user/pass will not work >> all browsers
In the process of 'copy
and paste' of username/password, a user may pick up the adjacent 'white space'.
But the operating system of the server will see the white space as a character,
so an authentication error will result.
So one will want to completely
clear the username/password dialog box,
and then type in the username/password.
Or if one must copy and paste, careful to highlight only the characters.
Check your {CAPS LOCK}
key - username / password is lower case only.
Username/password must be typed in exactly as received; no CAPS - no spa ces.
Make sure your web browser or software is set up to allow authentication.
4b) the user/pass will not work >> Internet Explorer 7 or 8, Windows Vista, Windows 7
please use Firefox
web browser
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
This site is updated often
and links will change.
Use the refresh button in your browser.
6) I never received a password
Check that the address
you submitted is correct.
Please mail me, including a valid return address.
Check your mailbox spam/junk
folder.
Now much legitimate mail is filtered by mail servers.
Include '@ricx.com' in your list of approved senders.
or there may be a problem
with your email setup.
send an address from a different email service.
7) poor display - jagged edges
By default some browsers
will not display an image at full size.
It will resize an image to fit the screen.
This may cause jagged edges to appear in an image.
Please correct this in your browser options:
>disable Automatic Image Resizing.
This site is hosted on
my web servers.
I share access to them with no one.
I share the members' details with no one.
I share the members' email address with no one.
I share the server logs with no one.
Scheduled server maintenance
downtime is each Monday 20:30 UTC/GMT
and for about 15 minutes.
10) Internet Explorer saves files as bitmaps (.bmp)
It is a known problem with
Internet Explorer.
Please read a support page here:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;q260650
11) other web site affiliations
I am not affilitated with
any other web site.
Now, many web sites use this web site content without my knowledge.
I am told some promise delivery of images which is never realized.
Please use those web sites at you own risk.
12) 'over quota' and the use of download accelerator software
Many users report 'over
quota' yet their files downloaded
total much less then
the quota.
It most often occurs when the software is set for multiple requests.
Many beta versions
of software are being used.
Many contain bugs.
Below is a
server log portion.
See that this software makes 35 partial requests for the file and then assembles
the file,
but the parts overlap.
User has downloaded 1.3MB
Actual file size is 234kb
It is a defect in the software.
