Doing chores

Sorry for not posting much. My project right now is to try to do another update to the top rotation. So far I've got:

95 Kirameki Project
54 This Ugly Yet Beautiful World
71 Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
53 Early Reins
12 Green Green
34 Kiddy Grade
16 MoonPhase

I'm probably going to get a few from The Third and I may take a look at Ikki Tousen.

So I may end up with about 400 new ones. The current rotation is 753, so that would be a bit more than half. So what goes, to make room? I've already started a bit of trimming, but I've only gotten rid of about 90 images so far. Mostly that consisted of pictures from Seven of Seven which I find I didn't like seeing. But I'm going to have to get ruthless if I'm going to eliminate half the current list. Probably I'll get rid of most of the Gravion images that remain, and Yumeria can go. But there are a lot of things I don't want to lose (Shinobu, Rushuna) so it'll be painful. I'll probably seriously cut back on High School Girls and Magical Play and UFO Princess Valkyrie and I'll probably also have to trim a lot of Magikano. And some Ramen Fighter Miki.

Ah, hell; I have to delete a lot of everything. Maybe it would be easier to identify the pictures I want to keep, instead of the ones I want to eliminate. I'll think about that.

UPDATE: Deciding what to keep, instead of what to get rid of, worked a hell of a lot better. I've got it down to 305.

You know, it really shouldn't make any difference, but psychologically it isn't the same. Probably it's because there are pictures I do like, pictures I don't like, and pictures I don't really care about. If I do it as weeding-out, I only get rid of the ones I don't like. But if I do it this way, effectively I also get rid of the ones I'm neutral regarding.

1 Once images are pulled, do they ever reappear?  I mean, do you ever think, "I should put some Happy Lesson pictures back up"?  (Not a request; I'm just curious.)
