There have been many questions asked by email. Here are some of them, with my answers:
Do you answer email?
- Yes, I have been answering 99% of them.
I am having download problems. When I try to download some of the movies they look like HMTL documents. Do you know what I'm doing wrong?
- Those movies where you see an html file upon trying to download are stored on parts of various yahoo groups. Click to open in a new window, instead of download on those, and you will find a place to join the free yahoo group it is on. Then you can either download them from my site while you are logged in to that group in a separate window, or directly from the group's file section.
My partner and I are interested in making me into a ponygirl. Can you teach me how?
- A great way to learn about being a pony is to, jointly with your partner, read the stories, look at the art and pics, and watch the vids on my website.
-Together you can identify through clear communications which aspects turn you on and which aspects do not. Some enjoy being a show pony, others a workhorse. Some enjoy sexual elements, others do not.
-Additionally you need a pony name to identify your pony persona, and pony gear. The gear can range from inexpensive home made, to pricy commercial.
-There are several regional groups you can join, depending on where you live, and some quite good pony groups on yahoo groups.
-If later on you feel comfortable about your pony life, send me photos, or a story or a diary about it, for the benefit of others.
I'm afraid I haven't been able to look at your site for a fortnight, so
I missed the previous update. Therefore I wonder if you please could
send info on last week's updates of movies and the rest? I don't want to miss any updates.
- Look in the History section. The summary for each week is there, with the name of the movie, and links to the rest.
You talk of visiting #bondagemovies on irc.hugi.org in irc with mirc. What are these things?
- First, go to http://www.mirc.com/ and read at least the intro and FAQ of irc then of mirc. Then download the mirc program. With it you can access irc, specifically pick any of the ones to irc.hugi.org, or type that in as the server. You will need to pick yourself a unique, unused nick name and register it. Then you can join groups like our #bondagemovies and get things there. The ops (ones with @ in front of their nicks) can help you. It all will seem quite confusing at first, but when you learn and use it, it will become quite worthwhile.
Do you sell movies, drawings, stories or pictures? Why do you do this for free?
- No, I do not sell anything! I am a long time collector on the net, and
was collecting well before the PC was even invented. I am simply
trying give back, by sharing my collection with others who enjoy ponygirls.
Can you tell me where to buy the movies?
- NO! I do not advertise for others. This is a nonprofit FREE site.
I have tried to provide some hints, so use a webcrawler like google and go find it yourself!
The pictures (or art) in your update of "year-month-day", "xxxx.jpg" and "yyyy.jpg", do you know where they from originally? Also where can I get more of them?
- For some of them I mention it, or the source url is shown on them, or on their thumbnail page. But for many, I simply do not know, nor do I keep track. I always try to retain the original file name and give credit when I can. For these kind of email's, I will rarely respond, as there have been way too many. Sorry.
How do I download pictures?
- With Internet Explorer, click the right mouse button and
then click the "save picture as" feature.
Netscape has a similar function, "save image as".
How do I view pictures and drawings?
- Drawings and pictures can be viewed on the internet browsers.
I also like to use a program called ACDSee, made by ACD Systems Ltd.
How do I download movies?
- With Internet Explorer, click the right mouse button and
then click the "save target as" feature.
Netscape has a similar function, "save link as".
How do I view movies?
- Most of the movies can be viewed with RealPlayer from www.real.com.
A free version is downloadable from there.
I know how to play .rm movies. What is .ram?
- It is the same thing. If you cannot associate .ram with your player,
just rename the downloaded movie to .rm extention.
- Also a .ram file can be created to easily view a series of .rm vids in sequence.
For example, make a test.txt file with:
file://desleash.rm
file://destrain.rm
file://destrot.rm
in three lines, save and rename to test.ram. Play it and it will try to play those three.
The test.ram and the 3 vids should be in same directory, if you don't want to get fancy.
The vids play jerky on my player. Why?
- Chances are your PC is older and too slow (under 166MHz. will be worst). Or you may have insufficient RAM.
The vids do not play on my player. Why?
- Chances are you downloaded only a partial vid. Or you could be missing the video driver required.
The vids play with no sound on my player. Why?
- Some vids have no sound. Also, remember to turn your sound on! I had one person write who forgot to do that.
After all those vids with an .rm filetype, you put up a new vid with a .viv filetype and it does not play on my player. Why?
- RealPlayerG2 has a free plug-in that plays the vivo file type and will automatically download
it if you open the file once you have the player open. Unfortunately, the newer RealPlayer7 does not play vivo.
There are also other players, like vivostatic, designed to play vivo files.
My browser does not show your site well. What do I do?
- I design it using Internet Explorer 5.5, for the way it looks on my notebook PC. Now and then I do peek at it with Netscape 7.0, but not as often as I should.
It may not work on your browser as well, so then let me know.
Or the pixel resolution of your PC's monitor may be less.
Why is it that I have seen a picture, drawing, story, vid, etc. under another file name?
- I try to retain the original filenames and file sizes to the greatest degree possible.
Some files have been renamed by others before I found them, and can be duplicates.
Are you interested in adding to your collection from things I have? And how?
- Yes of course, but do not email me the file, in case I already have it. Instead
email me a file list (using .txt, not .doc), or send a jpg of a thumbnails index.
I sometimes can also be found on IRC, on irc.hugi.org, where my nick is SirJeff.
Can you make the pictures smaller so I can view them?
- I can, and have for some of the drawings, with tools I have like Corel Photo House 3.
But I have chosen not to do so.
You can reduce them for yourself with similar tools. It is easy.
Could you add ponyboys?
- Of course I could, but rarely do, as I happen to enjoy ponygirls. Sorry.
Are you real?
- Hehehe, very cute! Unless you believe in some existentialist philosophy, I am indeed very much real.
Do you produce your own movies and pictures?
- No, and I have no plans to do so whatsoever.
Do you write your own stories?
- I did not for a long time. But I have written two poems and a story trilogy now. One of the poems was even published in an issue of Equus Eroticus.
Will you feature and sell my work?
- I do feature the quality work of others, and if they wish, point to their email or website. I am not selling anything.
How do I get to see the messages and files on the sjpg2002 yahoo egroup??
- You can join the sjpg2002 yahoo egroup, but do not forget to register yourself with egroups first,
on http://groups.yahoo.com/, and to turn the
Family Filter to Off after you have registered. If it says "welcome guest" then you have not yet
registered. Guests do not have access to read the files and messages. All of this is easy to do and free.
I am seeking to become involved with ponygirls and guys. Do you know how I can contact the local
scene? Do you have links to events that we can go to? How can I find and buy pony gear where I live?
- Sorry, I choose not keep track of any of these. There are ways to find out about them on http://groups.yahoo.com/, in groups such as EQUUSEROTICUS, PONE, ukponyplay and ponyplay. And it depends on where you live.
How do I play the vid clips with the ".asf" extention?
- With Windows Media Player, it is a Microsoft video format.
Write me if you have another question
SirJeff
