AT5 Development Just Started!
There were lots of things I wanted to AT4 but without changing its database structure it was impossible to do it. AT4 is already good enough with its features compared to any other multi category script however it was lacking the newest features of big tgps like perversius, pussyDotOrg etc. I also wrote (but never finished) an addon for AT4 which was collecting every detail in a gallery (picture quality, average pic. size, movie codec, movie resolution etc etc) and I am planning to combine it in new AT5.
New features of AT5:
- Multi size cropped thumbs (eg. 88×88, 120×90, 180×135, 240×180, 320×240) for each gallery.
- AskJolene style detailed search (page title, page content, average pic/movie size etc. will be displayed)
- New options in page templates like average pic size, pic quality, total movie size / duration / codec etc.
- More from this domain option (browse galleries by domain) in search (askjolene) / pages
- A real admin page with non .htaccess, cookie based Login page.
- Ability to browse / delete / modify galleries from Admin panel. Mass blacklist and remove all galleries by domain options.
- New build scripts to satisfy all needs
First, I will write all new features, test it on my site mpeghunter.com then I will start working on admin page. At this point, I will make an announcement and you can get your AT5. Upgrade from AT3 to AT5 will be $100 USD / Domain. AT4 to AT5 upgrade will cost only $50 USD.

AT4 Category-Redirect Addon
I started working on AT4 category redirect script again. It simply analyzes referring page address and redirect to your category page if you have same niche / page. Eg, your trade boneprone.com sends you a hit from boneprone.com/moviest/amateur1.shtml, this script tries 8+ different combinations to match category to your own category. If it succeeds, it loads your category page to the surfer which increases your productivity and click rate. Here is an example (largethumb.com <--> mpeghunter)
Unfortunately this trade’s productivity was very bad before I installed at4 category redirect script to my site, mpeghunter.com. Productivity simply doubled (average prod of largethumb.com on mpeghunter is 60% only). If you trade with other multi niche tgps like me, this script definately increases your overall click rate. The only downside of using such script is you have to run a php script on every hit (no mysql needed). On high traffic (>200k) it may consume some cpu resources if you use an old server (single p4 cpu). However, if you use a dual cpu server or if you have less than 200k traffic, script works flawlessly.
Current version only redirects category to your choice of text/thumb page of pictures or movies (only one!). Next version will support domain based rulesets which will allow us to redirect to text & thumb page of pictures and movies. Contact me if you want to get this addon.
