Stage 11 - “The fourth Sky Girl” September 19th

Filed in Sky Girls, 2007.

It’s still training season and the girls are hard at work practicing in the early morning. This time they’re using imaginary WORMs. I guess the production team is getting cheap. All is going well, and their starting to work with ought verbal indicators. Later, they get briefed on their new deployment base at sea and things move on…

At the Port next door, power puff girl Elise has arrived. She’s a lot younger then the other girls, or it may just be her height. As the three are still in practice an unknown pops up on the radar. It’s Elise, on her European SD. She shows off in front of the girls, but Eika, reminded of her fight with the “temporary replacement” won’t stand it and rallying Otoha and Karen corner her. Elise is less then impressed and throws a sly remark how it takes the three of them to capture her, the one.

Some time later the inevitable bash-Togo meeting comes. Eika is mad, Karen is sad and Otoha… she’s just clueless and over exited as always. At the hanger the truck with Elise’s heavy luggage arrives, but Elise is nowhere to be seen. Togo and the truck’s driver go to search for her.

Meanwhile,
On the other side of the base the girls are eating, partially worried about the 4th pilot, Elise. As they talk, the little devil pops in and like the good neighbor she is immediately challenges Eika to a duel. Eika agrees to a fight in the simulator… superman changeover fallows. But the fight is pointless as none of them can really win anything good from it…

Next: “Bye Bye”, Karen’s time to face Darth SG Elise.

hey Erinyes.. just a thought.. you should get your post to be cut, with the “MORE” thingy. because yr page takes forever to load o.O

by Erinyes     September 20th

Strange you should see the page instantly, it’s only 50k. The bulk of the loading is in the images which are something like 650k.

I save all my images to a imagehost, and make sure to have placeholders for them, so you should see the page instantly and the images slowly but surely loading in the background, with the placeholders filling up. (I do optimize the images I use)

I’ve cut down the posts loaded on the front page, it’s now almost 2 times smaller then it was before. (35k content 300k images)
I’ll tweak it as I post to keep it load-friendly. =)

I was working on a theme some time ago, but I’m currently suffering from a cold, been like this for a week or so. ~
Very annoying…

When I get back my health and continue my work I’ll make sure to add a option to auto-summarize posts as well as others to minimize loading times.

I personally try avoiding using the more feature as much as I can, I believe it’s intrusive.

Are you perhaps using some sort of anonymity network, e.g TOR. You might want to try using more static alternatives like sites who offer the service they’re generally faster. =)

my net is very fast. lol. just that when i visit other sites, its relatively faster. yeah im suggesting it to make it more user-friendly =P since i really wana visit yr site, but im put off by the loading time. haha.

Yes, I did a few performance tests and debugged it just now. I’ve figured out where the root of all evil in the load time was. =)

It will take me a while to fix it since it will require editing every little post and a few extra operations, but it should not be a problem afterwards.
