"I am a PS Seeder" Button
« on: June 20, 2006, 02:48:20 am »
Well I realized that PS Torrent Seeders are rare, so I quickly made some "I am a PS Seeder" Buttons to inculde in the Signature or elsewhere, maybe this is an appeal to seed PS, have fun  :flowers:

Here they are:



But I don't know if there are any copyright issues with the logos...

EDIT: Maybe they could be linked to a guide "HOWTO Seed and why?"
Oh I am sorry for doubleposting !  :oops:

Cool, I think I'll try one on for size.

Alfonso, it looks like your hosting those images on your own PC?
I suggest image shack.  ;)

Okay I will edit the others too.
And no it is not my own PC, don't worry, it is a VServer without a domain linked at the moment :-)

Finally, all buttons with OS-signs and one button each with all OSs (I will write the mentioned HOWTO soon...)

I think I should clarify my idea behind those buttons.
They were meant for "permanent" seeders (e.g. whenever I  turn on my computer I start my BT-client and seed the PS files). Permanent in this case doesn't mean really whenever you start your computer, or connect with the internet, but it should be on a regular basis.
But why?
Well in a good case a community is (at least) growing constantly. That means, that if youe seed the file 1,2 or 3 days after you downloaded it another one (or more people) takes your place and the file is still available via BT.
But it seems to me that thios isn't the case for PS at the moment.
A poll on my german PS-Fan-Site showed that 28% of the voters didn't play PS at all at the moment of voting and 18% played it less than a month.
So my conclusion is, that there is a big (old) core of players and many which only "jump in" evaluate the game and then choose to not play it.
For BT means this thatif the "old" players don't seed on a regular - permanent - basis it comes to a situation as we have it at the moment: a maximum of about 5 seeders...

I hope the idea is understandable.
And if we link those buttons to a guide maybe this will lead people to seeding...
