read manga online sacrifices

I spent the whole morning sleeping, eating and uploading manga to be read online. The site is in readmangaonline.blogspot.com. Hopefully I can upload up to volume 4 of futari ecchi today. hehe Click here to read manga online

I noticed that if i upload the whole chapter intact, it would take a long time for people to browse through it and it would seem better than they just downloaded it so I tried searching for solutions to lessen the file sizes without losing much quality.

Well I am using these softwares – VSO Image resizer and Microsoft PowerToys for Windows XP to do my job. ^_^ haha It’s a tedious task but its for the manga fans out there. hehe

This is my methods:

If the picture is in PNG format, I will convert it to JPG using VSO Image resizer.
Convert all JPG pictures using Microsoft PowerToys for Windows XP to 1024×768 resolution (massive drop in file sizes)
Upload the pictures to Imageshack using ShellUploader program
Copy the direct links from Imageshack to notepad
I made a little program that turns direct image links into html (eg. http://image.jpg to <img src=”http://image.jpg” border=”0″ alt=”image image”> )
I put it into read manga online
