Alright I am pretty sure that my optimization works correctly. It definitely made Albion work (zip gets generated in <30 sec) and I see all of the files it was supposed to have effected and they look fine to me.
This optimization basically applies to every single texture that is the only texture on its "palette" image, namely ALL mod textures besides the newly formulated BTW palettes (btwterrain01 and btwitems01).
If this optimization is without bugs, it should decrease server load across the board whenever generating zips for download and therefore decrease wait time significantly.
NOTE: this 30 sec max generation time won't be an issue once we hop over to our new VPS since we have full control over the limits we can hold on the entire server, namely script max runtime.
This is weird the page is mixing were the gills and the stem are on the terrain file. Stem is the one on the right and grills to the left.
The database has the coordinate/name set correctly. We had it messed up before and some people uploaded during that time, giving them the wrong piece for the wrong name. They just need to reupload them. PM them or comment on their customizer page.
Everybody reupload your Better Than Wolves textures!!!
Better Than Wolves support has FINALLY been updated for the btwterrain01.png palette. Now, if anyone knows and can list the textures of along with coordinates for btwitems01.png that would be great. They are currently documented as "Unknown Items"
We decided to go ahead and try a dedicated server out (for a month a least). Within the next couple days we should no longer have any issues with being overburdened.

An update to this. Hostgator took down the site again for overtaxing their servers. We spoke with them again and got them to try putting it back up (but they took it down again because the traffic spiked again.).
Now instead they've escalated setting up the dedicated server and the transfer over. In the mean time the site will be down, however.
HostGator has been extremely speedy in setting up a dedicated server for us. As of now, all we are waiting on this copying over our old system to the new server. Shouldn't be long.

THANK you!
Our dedicated server is up and ready, however the domain name is in the process of being pointed to our new dedicated server. The whole process is said to take 24-48 hours however I have, in the past, had much much quicker turnarounds (~4 hours). It will vary from person to person across the world. So just keep trying every now and then.
We're excited about the new amount of resources we will have for the site, though it is expensive. If anyone is willing to donate a few extra bucks to help out the cause, it would REALLY REALLY help.
Our new dedicated server has started to become available! It will start becoming available within the next 24 hours so some people may just need to wait, but keep on checking.
ok, so I was trying to update my pack, and accidentally typed in .com instead of .net in the address bar. It took me to a site identical to the customizer, and I logged in, but I noticed some things were different from the current version. Now I'm worried it may have been a phishing site and now has my password. Was this just a mirror, or should I change my password when the site goes back up?
No worries. We own both domains (minecraftcustomizer.net and minecraftcustomizer.com). The cookie just doesn't recognize that you're logged in if you use a different domain.
HELP!!!
Whenever I click download, if I picked my preffered textures or if I didn't, I get the same message everytime saying EMAIL some dude and tell him the steps or seomthing. I want to download!

Hahaha not a bad idea. But great work on the many MANY textures you have in there. I previously did not realize how many you had!

Retired StaffThey're moving the site to a new host. It will be that way until they finish.

Retired StaffThey're moving the site to a different host, which is probably why you're seeing a 'mirror'.
The .com site was actually pointing to another server we were testing on. I'll have the .com forward to .net again like it used to.

Well technically the same host, HostGator, but to a dedicated server instead. So we can use as much resources as we want!!!
