I will confess it: another friend made a foolish bet, the “you won’t dare to do it” sort of bet, and by writing and posting it, I’m winning a free lunch :D

So, I am to share with you some of the best friends of the hentai fan. That’s all it takes to eat for free :lol:

A good reader.

I strongly recommend ACD See Classic, also called ACD See 2.43, this software was published when windows98 was the hype, and it still works under Ten. Fast, zero bugs, configurable, it works both as a file browser (really useful when windows’s Explorer is buggy, and select a file, keep Shift pressed, hit the Windows key, and windows’ explorer menus are offered) and both as a won-der-ful picture viewer. You can get it here, and after 10 000 pictures seen you’ll need a serial, for instance Mester as name and 475341886221327 as serial.

Tools > Options > Viewer > Full Screen > Save Default, and that’s all the options to change there is.
The rest is fast and easy, intuitive keyboard navigation (page up, page down, slash key for original size, * key for resize, + for zoom in, – for zoom out), and when you’re not viewing a picture fullscreen you can move from a folder to another as in the windows Explorer.

An intimate friend. Warming lubricant is your friend.
Yeah, if there wasn’t an embarrassing part, I wouldn’t eat for free!

If you never masturbated with lubricant, you never really masturbated. Fapping with lube will feel like you’re experiencing fapping for the first time, afresh.
And if you never masturbated with a warming lubricant… it’s like you never really masturbated with a lubricant before.
It’s that good.

I confess that, as a teenager without a girlfriend, it was a great friend – as it was to several friends when we dared to discuss about it, much later, it was a surprise :o

Forget about Durex Play Heat, the most well-known one: too thick to feel as good as it could, not warming a lot, and you need to reapply it very fast, it doesn’t last long.
Better brands are Pjur Myglide and JO H2O, with those 2 there’s no going wrong. They sometimes exist in non-warming version, don’t bother with those.
Also, avoid at all cost silicon-based lubricants: it’s a maximum pain to remove, you will need to scub for a billion years, or that’s how it will feel. Pjur Myglide, JO H2O, or the lame Durex Play Heat, are all water-based, and that’s a lot better. I found an alternative use for silicon-based lube: with my wife, we use it… for the parts of our skin that rub against each other when we make long hikes. At the end of a six hour hike in the country, that’s the difference between a blister and slightly red skin.

A good pictures re-processor.

Sometimes you need to convert the pictures, or to recompress them, or rename them, or to resize them because they’re too huge, or you may want to perform batches of many simple but repetitive operations. For that, the best tool I ever saw is Xnview. I explain everything here.

*

A good video player.

For this I highly recommend the good old VLC. Other players get hype and lose it a decade later, while the VLC is still here, doing a fine job, always, and it reads everything.

Otherwise, you may choose the Pot Player: kinda like the VLC, but with a different interface. I prefer it to VLC for one kind of settings: you can assign to hotkeys moving backward/forward of multiple time scales. When you want to watch porn vids and move to the juicy bits, or go back to them once they’re over, it’s extra-useful.
Damn, I’ll have deserved my free meal.

*

A good video converter

you may want to convert one of your videos from one format to another, right ? The only freeware I know of, capable of handling ALL the formats there is, that doesn’t need any third-party codecs or other nerdy stuff, is : Super.

*

A good video editor

Let’s say you like a lot a certain porn vid, but you want to only keep the best part of the vid, or you want to remove the unnecessary first 20 minutes in which the girl is interviewed and tries out outfits?
Understandable. But you will want to do this cut-and-save operation losslessly. Otherwise, if it’s an actual re-compression into a new video, it will take a LONG time, and the resulting image quality will be damaged in the operation.

Depending on the format of your video, you’ll need different programs to be able to do it.

. For .avi vids, there’s always the good old Virtual Dub. Drag and drop a video into Vdub, there is a selection line at the the bottom, with two position points, keep shift pressed and move the first point to the part where the selection must start, move the other point to where the selection must end, do Video > Direct Stream Copy, and File > Save as Avi… and you’re done, it will only take a few seconds.

. For .wmv vids, there’s Asfbin (when I tried it, it worked, but I don’t know why, it insisted in replacing .wmv with .asf) and MpegStreamclip.

. For .mp4 files, there’s MP4Split, I tested it, the interface wasn’t intuitive, but it works well

I hope this post didn’t only offer me a free lunch, but has also helped a few of you guys :)

One picture viewer that I found to be very very useful is called CDisplay, and by far I wouldn’t be able to live reading this stuff and regular manga without it. The feature that I love the best for this unique viewer is that it is able to view pictures while they are still archived and zipped. Meaning you dont have to unzip the files. It also opens the picture in max size, so you don’t have to zoom out, which I never liked doing and simply scrolling will change pages. Only thing I don’t like is that the pictures need to be in an archive file to be viewed by CDisplay, but hey this helps save room and most downloads are in the zipped format, and yes it works for RAR files as well.

for videos I use realplayer , it can download stream videos and play them later.
Also it avoids having your porn in the windows media player library ;-)

Two things that I've found useful:
* Windows Classic theme (Vista and later). Turns off those potentially dangerous/embarrassing thumbnail and full-screen previews.
* Relational database management system. For organizing huge collections, nothing beats a good RDBMS (OpenOffice.org, Microsoft Access, etc.)

even better than cdisplay, google a prog. called honeyview 3.
best manga viewer out there.
faster, supports more shit, and is being still updated. unlike cdisplay.
also, supports unzipped folders etc too.

Ifranview is what I use, you can stretch the image to the size of your monitor which is awesome. Pretty much the MPC of image viewers.

One video viewer I recommend a lot now. smplayer – based on mplayer an opensource player that has the ability to plugin TONS of codecs. to date I have not met a vdeo/audio combo it could not handle.

– A Good Reader is something that will support a crapload of images without bugs or being a pain in the ass. I have tried many readers, but have found that none were quite as convenient as I thought. (Sorry Oliver)
– Fapping Friend For the Frustrated (An intimate friend) – Well, I have yet to come across the best material, but some lubricant works well.
– Image Conversion… I have not required one yet since this site rules! Of course, I can't really say anything else, since I have none.
– Good Video Player… I use a combination of SMPlayer (which crashes sometimes), and Media Player Classic. But for those truly not educated in video – VLC is not the player for you! (Sorry to all that do, but poor rendering of the text of a sub file in this player killed any chances of me recommending it. On the other hand, VLC has no other problems that I know of, and works great with raw video files)
– Good Video Conversion – WinFF. No Bugs. No Clipping sound. No Problems with playback. Easy to understand.
– Subbing Videos – AegisSub. Best one I could find, but if you time everything correctly, it should export sub files in the video. Of course, since there are a crapload of hentai videos that have been subbed, this is not for those who are utterly clueless, impatient, weak-willed, or lazy.
– Video Editor – Just call someone else if you don't want to DIY. I'd rather not do this since it's a pain to do so (eats up lots of time like AegisSub)

Have you tried "ComicRack". It is free and working great.
