Level 1 Support. ----------------------------- 247 Ticket Support Department - http://247livesupport.biz -" What shall I do? I really don't feel like moving around again and it's 60 dollars down the drain, 60 dollars that where given to me to keep the site up for a year. I would move to lunarpages but I'm too fed up at the moment. So I want to get this account opened up again. Any help, threat letters, tips are welcome. I have allready sent them a support ticket to explain this to me in non-computernerd language. See what they have to lie. Uhm say. Thanks! xxx Nouk Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: chlyn on 2007 March 20, 19:04:07 This seems to be a common experience for site owners.
I've seen it suggested (maybe here?) that moving to another host is a better idea than getting a dedicated server. I'll try to find that post. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Quorneater on 2007 March 20, 19:05:12 Bloody hell! I am sorry this has happened to you :(
Was it a forum-based site - I can't remember, did users have to download stuff from inside forum threads? I know that does hammer a server a lot more than just downloading from normal webpages. You could try if you have not already, making it so only registered people can view image attachments and download files. Just in case some idiot's trying to mess things up for you. One thing I do on dinnerbell is if there are large downloads, I have them uploaded by ftp to a directory and just put the link in the forum post. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: wicked_one on 2007 March 20, 19:06:53 i don't understand most of what you copied and pasted, but the bottom part sounds like those are steps rather than options. Step 1: try to reduce usage Step 2: ask them to move you to a different server made for larger/busier websites (you need to do this step) Step 3: pay for one of their servers that will be only for your site(s)
If you are able to still get into your account, you should take a look at how much bandwidth, space, etc you are using in case you do need to move (instead of paying them for a server) Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 March 20, 19:10:46 My site was allready very slow, and that for a bunch of .html files. If it's moved to a busy server it will be hell to reach it.
I'll just have the site be moved to the busy server, then buy a Lunarpage hosting thing and get half a year free for moving before the end of the contract. It will take about 2 weeks before I have the money, but in the meentime this will have to do. Thanks for your help :) Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: liegenschonheit on 2007 March 20, 19:48:43 Basically, your site receives a lot of traffic and their server can't handle it. It isn't your fault, Nouk. They need to have better hardware in place if they want to be a reliable webhosting company. You paid for a year's worth of service from them and if they can't provide that service then I would ask for a refund for the remaining months and then find a host with a system that can handle the number of hits your site takes.
The reason your site was loading so slowly was most likely due, again, to their server limitations. Moving to a busy server wouldn't be a problem if the server had enough RAM, a decent CPU, and enough bandwidth to handle the load. I'd ask them what the specifications are on the high load server, how many sites it currently handles, and what the page loading time averages from that server. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: shishmish on 2007 March 20, 20:08:29 I was wondering what had happened to your site Nouk; this sucks majorly.!
It's not your fault that your site is visited by alot of people - shows you how good it is. They obviously don't have the server space they thought they did and are just passing the buck onto their customers - very bad! Good luck with finding a new server! Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Quorneater on 2007 March 20, 20:11:41 Actually Lunarpages, love them as I do, are pretty strict on sites that take up too much CPU or too many simultaneous database connections. If you really do have a highly used site using forum software or content management system (rather than just plain html and links) then you may have trouble there too for the same reason. It might be worth running your report by their customer services (or their presales forum) to see what they think of it and whether it would cause problems there too.
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 March 20, 20:16:41 Or I could burn the forum - it hardly gets used. The rest of my site is really just a bunch of html files.
Thanks for all the tips, guys! I wonder if they ask money for moving to the other server. If so, I'm not going to pay for it, and I'll loose the entire site. I'll just have to ask for acces once more to download my site or something. I'll certainly mention the fact that their servers are not powerfull enough to host decent websites. They completely covered their asses and will not refund me, because I 'abused' their system. If it stays this way, it will become a paypal claim I think. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Quorneater on 2007 March 20, 20:26:16 If you don't think your forum is being used, then it looks like it could have been being hit on by some malicious process, cos it does figure in those reports. And there are loads of php calls. What else on your site was using php besides your forum? php scripts can be a security nightmare. Maybe someone hijacked your site to run something. Anyway... ff you want to start a new forum any time, I advise SMF (as it is thought to be more secure than phpbb), and make use of email validation for new accounts.
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Rovam on 2007 March 20, 22:40:25 Quote from: "Nouk's hosting service" LOLZ YO, Your site is completely abusing our servers because it's actually getting the bandwidth you're paying for instead of it sitting there quietly for a year getting two hits per day. FIX IT NAO. This is in no way us being an unreliable host at all. Please contact us so we can screw you out of more money in return for more of our wonderful service, Lots of love from Shitty Hosting Company xxxx Fixed. <3 If they won't move you for free, definitely kick them until they give you at least a partial refund. After all, you're paying for a service and they have a duty to bloody provide you with it. :x Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Pescado on 2007 March 21, 00:47:44 Quote from: "Nouk" Or I could burn the forum - it hardly gets used.

I'll just have to ask for acces once more to download my site or something. It doesn't cost anything, no. I'd just tell them you're willing to reduce the alleged CPU load by dropping the forum, though. The configuration they have is terrible when it comes to dealing with PHP things. Also, it does look like somehow your forum process ran away. With whatever dodgy code you might be running on top of their own dodgy PHP handling... Quote from: "Nouk" I'll certainly mention the fact that their servers are not powerfull enough to host decent websites.

Eh, it's not that bad, like I said, they don't actually know what's really happening. Try offering to move the forum, and if that shuts 'em up, great. Otherwise take that "high load" server, they'll do that for free. Like I said, don't panic, don't sweat it, this sort of thing happens from time to time.

Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Quinctia on 2007 March 21, 05:36:41 My exboyfriend's site got slammed like that last year by his hosting. They were very unprofessional about it and basically held his account hostage, so he had to pay for a dedicated server just to access his files. He moved to a different host, and hosted his forum (which was the drain) on invision board's hosting. It was an invision board anyway, and it freed up the drain on the site so he's not likely to have the problem again with the website.
Hopefully nuking your forums will do the trick with your host. :) Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Lorelei on 2007 March 21, 08:51:39 Nouk, I'd visited your site a number of times, and never noticed you had a forum. I think that burninating or relocating it might pacify your hoster. *crosses fingers*
Reducing the size of images on your pages can help as well, as your host takes a hit each time someone loads up an image-intensive page. You can do that with Photoshop and ImageReady, make each image as small K-wise as possible. Another trick would be to keep your download preview images on a separate page. The main page would show the generic hairstyle being offered, then a link to the download page with smaller images showing colour variants. Usually a main picture is enough for browsers to determine if they want the hairs being offered. IIRC, you load up all the variations and dl links on the same page as the main "this is what the hair looks like" image. Putting any new things in the beginning of the sort also helps, ditto marking their links with "NEW! [date updated]" information, as people won't load up all the pages again and again browsing to see the new things. Offering to sep out your DLs pages to reduce server load may also help, as then those pages won't be visitedor loaded unless visitors want those files specifically. That lets browsers and downloaders put different loads on the system. It's only a band-aid, but I suspect you get a lot of visitors who know you from forums and have seen your hairs elsewhere and want to look at your whole body of work or see what's new. Good luck! Hope this info wasn't too basic and obvious for you. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Requip on 2007 March 21, 13:34:15 I wondered what happened too! I seriously have no advice to offer as I don't know a thing about websites but I hope you can get things taken care of in a way that won't screw you over. :?
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 March 21, 18:02:31 Thank you guys!
To be honest (or obvious) I'm a complete amateur concerning building an efficient website. A question: will CSS make a difference in loading time and page sizes and such? If removing the forum si not enough: * Noukiesims2 will most probably be completely redesigned. Older files will be removed (and maybe moved to mts2?), preview pics will be smaller in size. * Like Lorelei suggested, the updates will be loaded to a special update page. Brilliant! Thanks guys this really helps :) Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Lorelei on 2007 March 21, 18:18:34 Nouk, the primary benefit of CSS is less work for you. You make your template or templates, and then any files / text can be pointed to within the CSS code.
This way updates require you updating a text file and your new pix and files, rather than redesigning each page and changing info on every other page in your site pointing to that page. Changing the look of your entire site is also a matter of minutes and editing one (or, at most, a handful) of files. One Fell Swoop design is much easier to maintain, so def. do CSS. Google "Zen Garden" and CSS for examples of the same info presented 100 different ways. They defined different fonts, different colour sets, different headlines, different backgrounds, different layouts, etc., but as different as each page looks, it has EXACTLY the same content! The biggest space saver, besides putting the forum elsewhere or foregoing it, will be using the Optimize for Web feature in PShop or Image Ready. Also, and forgive me for not doublechecking, but in January when I DLed my fave Noukie hairs (the cornrows and long pulled-back dreads are faves for my most fabulous Sims Of Colour) there were a bunch of unbinned hairs, and if each colour is kept as a separate file rather than a big file, server load will drop, because chances are some folks will only want the basic colours and the mesh, not every available colour, no matter how awesome. Every K you shave off reduces the server load. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Hecubus on 2007 March 21, 18:51:30 Keep us posted on your progress....we miss your site!
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 March 21, 20:55:53 Hey guys!
I put the site back online and removed the forum. Also, most of the pictures weren't working because my phtobucket pro account had run out, So I placed the pics on the server and linked to those. So it's back :) Thanks for all your help and tips!! Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: KikiGo on 2007 March 21, 21:57:34 I'm glad you got back up again..By the way is that your own hair creation in your latest pic for the earrings update? or did you get from somehwere else?

Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: capnjacksparrow on 2007 March 22, 01:16:32 Sounds like you had a crappy host.

I was wondering what was up when I tried to go there to show my mom a pic of the Streaked Lolita Hairs. I really love your site and I'm glad everything is sorted out. I'd hate to see another Great site move to MTS2 it takes me so long to DL from there because I get the error message like 7 times for each file before it actually downloads. Thanks for all the great stuff and African American type hairs. I find it very hard to find good Dreads or curly hairs and I don't think all Black sims should have stick straight Peggy Hair. Thanks!!
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: sherrie on 2007 March 30, 19:39:44 interesting remark just posted on my guestbook...
Quote I read your terms of use page and the part where you say that atwa used free hair to make her pay clothes look better? if the hair you mean is noukiesims hair then she linked to that on tsr to use bandwidth. she read somewhere that noukiesims is low bandwidth and thought it's time to bring down a pirates site. she has posted the link in a few sites and she is asking other peeps and me to do it too. so your page is wrong where it says her reasons. so I was wrong ok. All I can say was my page was correct at the time of going to press and I wont be held responsable for my failiure to get inside Atwa's sick little head! and if the poster is reading this, it's a good idea to go direct to the source to complain and not waste your time correcting other peoples policy pages in their guestbooks! (and I know who you are) seriously though, nouk, you need to look into blocking hits from malicious websites or redirecting them. Unfortunatly when reputable sites like yours get into difficulty, there is always gutter trash waiting to take advantage of the situation. Hopefully you will be able to upgrade to a high or unlimited bandwidth site and you can thank her for the free advertisement :D maybe a redirect to here would do the trick? http://www.atwa.youarelame.com/ Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Pescado on 2007 March 30, 20:00:08 Nouk *IS* on an unlimited bandwidth plan. The host apparently was merely complaining about the CPU drain from the forum, probably because of Atwa's sneaky attempts. Without the forum, it'll be that much harder to run up traffic. If it really gets dire, you can always move in with us, and the Malaysians would transfer your remaining account credit towards the server renewal here, which would mean TSR would get to contend with my 42-pound, allegedly-portable fist.
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: redisenchanted on 2007 March 30, 20:05:39 Wait, what did I miss? Did the sucky and evil Atwa purposely go after our beloved Nouk?
It shouldn't shock me, but gah! They are finding new ways to suck! Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: wicked_one on 2007 March 30, 20:39:17 nouk is on a hosting plan that has unmetered bandwidth with a small amount of webspace so this "low bandwidth" thing is incorrect
I dont understand your gb entry, she used free hair to make her pay clothes look better and then linked to the hair to try to get people to scramble over to nouk's site and use up all her bandwidth? i dont think that even nouks wonderful hair could make atwas clothes look better and it's nice to know atwa and her goons are trying to hurt nouk :x edit: looks like the malaysians changed their website and their plans? Or maybe I'm remembering it wrong. I thought it said unmetered bandwidth before but maybe i'm losing my mind lol Now it says 150gb Anyways, you get much more here: http://www.hostican.com/hosting/linux.php for $7/month (found link on MySimSite) Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 March 30, 21:00:16 What about a troyan? Can a troyan do this?
Plus, I know you guys don't like Atwa, but these are quite some serious alligations, people can go to jail for this. At least here in Holland they do. I need real good proof. Like screenshots, etc. I have no way to see how this happened, i think it was some script or troyan. Not a few angry people going to the forum at the same time. Bringing down my site would be pointless, because I don't depend on it or sell stuff on it. Well except maybe to annoy me. But all I do is share my OWN free stuff, wich benefits everyone. Funny thing is, I don't even download booty :D If this is true, they got the wrong damn pirate! Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Pescado on 2007 March 30, 21:03:07 Typical trojans do not affect Unix accounts, particularly those of Noukly people who probably don't even use shell. And of course there's no PROOF. That's what proves it was clearly a sneaky and underhanded move, because why else would the proof have been methodically hidden like this? You need to learn to think like a paranoid, Nouk. Because it's not paranoia when they really are out to get you.
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 March 30, 21:06:09 ARGH! everyone is out to get me! I bet you all own paysites! You bad bad people!!! :lol:
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: chlyn on 2007 March 30, 21:12:49 That's nasty. I don't know what PMBD thinks, but I'd be against using tactics like that, even against a paysite. I'm all for negative publicity - tampering with someone's website should be out of bounds.
Why am I surprised, though? If people are unapologetic about charging money for pixels, they probably lack the ethics to resist electronic tampering. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Pescado on 2007 March 30, 21:14:51 Eh. As far as I'm concerned, the high ground is where you put your artillery.

Well this is interesting...havent heard it anywhere else which makes me think its a load of bull. Any idea who it was who posted in your guestbook? And Sherrie, Atwa.Yourlame is priceless 8) I could be misreading it, but the way I take the post, is that the poster is saying that atwa 'read somewhere that nouk had bandwidth problems' or words to that effect. well the only place that nouk wrote anything like that was here, and they very day after that someone on the 'ugly thread' on the other board, noticed atwa had linked to nouk on her excuse for a homepage, then the day after that atwa put nouks link on all her new creations on TSR. Now I very much doubt a link on tsr did this to the bandwidth, atwa's creations are not that popular to gain any traffic, and her website is dead so theres not any traffic coming from there either. I think what has happened is that someone else has attacked nouks bandwidth (atwa isn't that smart) and when atwa read here that it had caused a problem, she took advantage of the situation by trying to add more traffic to what she thought was a stuggling site. (like the parasite she is) it also sounds like she is asking her 'friends' to help her do this, whether they will lower themselves to her level remains to be seen. Now there was an attack plan, (supposidly hatched by thomas) that atwa talked about, but that was aimed at PMBD, and nouk was never mentioned, atwa refused to say what it was, but as she has such a big mouth, that led me to believe it was just bullshit she made up from her own little dream world. as for the poster, I will PM you and red :D and if you are reading this 'david' make the plunge and post your info directly here, my guestbook is not an extention of this forum. dont worry about being thrown off TSR, if you really did inherit over $1 million as atwa spread around, you can afford to get your own site.

Who does she think she is Thomas? :lol: !
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Sherry on 2007 March 31, 14:23:52 Quote from: "Pescado" Heh, I have a response for that: Call us dogs, and you will feel our bite! The PMBD server has basically been under continuous attack for months now, we get happy daily fun logs of this crap bouncing off our shields and dozens of IPs have been banned already. Ours or yours, or do you consider them one in the same? Actually it was an old Seabree quote, but pretty much called for targeting anyone who associated themselves with filesharers, whether or not they condoned and/or participated in the action itself.

LOL it's amazing what she thinks people will do for her when she tells them she can get them FA.... wonder how long it will take them to realise the truth :P some people also do things for her out of sympathy (take the ratings situation for instance :twisted: ) Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: RedLove on 2007 March 31, 14:46:41 When I was a more sheep like member of TSR i used to rate her stuff out of sympathy :lol: and my little cousins like all the colors so I was like why not? I regret that. She must be doin' Thomas some "favors"
Title: Re: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Mary_Read on 2007 March 31, 17:31:12 You could always ask Delphy to host you. :lol:
I am joking, obviously. Seriously, all those bandwidth headaches makes me wonder why anyone would host a site at all. Kudos to yourself. Title: Finally Post by: PsychoSimGirl on 2007 April 01, 04:34:42 Quote from: "chlyn" Why am I surprised, though? If people are unapologetic about charging money for pixels, they probably lack the ethics to resist electronic tampering. Finally someone who understands that Pay Items and all the rest are not even a Physical thing you can even touch. They are just pixels, pieces of computer coded pixels. Thanks for saying what I've been saying about this stuff for years. Don't get me wrong I love the Booty and I don't even want to see the log of things I've DL'd because the list is huge. I love a good Booty! Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Lorelei on 2007 April 01, 15:49:30 Quote from: "Nouk" ARGH! everyone is out to get me! I bet you all own paysites! You bad bad people!!! :lol: *shifty eyes here* ALL RIGHT! I CONFESS!! I AM ATWA! I 1337HAXX0r3D UR SITE! *Montgomery Burns laughter and hand-rubbing here* I did it all for pix of Scott Stapp making as monkey's heinie out of himself in a Gainesville, Florida Denny's. And benes. And a trip to the ophthalmologist, because everything I see is all the same colour. All the time. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 April 03, 17:25:27 Unlimited bandwidth my ass! Go look www.noukiesims2.net
I have signed a contract for unlimited bandwidth, so what the hell do they think they're doing? Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: OneEyedWillie on 2007 April 03, 17:34:13 :( I can't believe this is happening to you!!!! *huggles Nouk* that really sucks! I hope someone can help you out.
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 April 03, 17:39:24 I'll help myself out. To a Lunarpages hosting with 6 months free. They have this offer: http://www.lunarpages.com/special_offer.php
However I will not get my complete website back like this. It's on their server. On my computer, all of the downloads are organized in a completely different way. I'll never get it back to the old format like this. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Chinchillagrl on 2007 April 03, 17:54:29 I'm so sorry Nouk. This really sucks.
They better give you back your full money, since they have breached the contract with you. What Jerks! :evil: Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 April 03, 17:55:05 They'll say it never excisted.
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Tchannie on 2007 April 03, 18:00:24 Do you not have a copy of what you organised? If you have an email or some proof it did exist, they've no leg to stand on. I can't believe they're doing this to you; it's disgusting. You paid for a year, did you not? You've used only 3 months maximum, ne? They HAVE to give you back your money. Fair and square.
*sends huggles* Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: redisenchanted on 2007 April 03, 18:02:05 Ah, Nouk. I'm sorry you're having trouble. :cry: Your site is one of the very few I would actually donate to.
Hope you get everything sorted out soon. Let everyone know if you need help. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 April 03, 18:51:08 Ok, site's back online after an angry email about contract breach and chicken soup with an Asian alternative for chicken.
Still, they threatened to suspend me if I use much more bandwidth. So I;ll just move to lunarpages, it's 95 dollars. Hey, if someone wants to open a website with me, we'll split the cost XD LOL Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 April 03, 21:42:57 OR set up a server on my old computer...
It's a AMD Athlon 2200 +, 1gb RAM, 80 gb harddrive. I'd need a higher upload speed from my internet provider. Probably not worth it if I can just upload to Insimenator and MTS2. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Marhis on 2007 April 05, 14:48:39 Seriously, Nouk, if your bandwidth need is not more than 200 Gb/month, I can gladly host your site for free; it's on a very good hosting provider, no bullshit about CPU loads or similar stuff.
The only costs it should require would be a 5$ setup fee for domain transfer, and 1$/month if you want your own IP; if you don't need a personal ip, no additional 1$/month. I would not recommend directly that provider (Pair) as a host because it's not cheap, but it's a quite professional provider. I have that account for other purpouses, and a lot of its resources (expecially bandwidth) are wasted, so it would be totally not a problem to share them with you, host your site, your files, in part or whole, just ask.

Never, EVER, pay for a so-called 'domain transfer', that is completely unnecessary and dangerous to put the keys to your entire operation in the hands of the same people. Nouk: If you want to move to a better server, I can just put you up here. Get in touch with me and I probably even get your existing tab bumped towards renewal. No bitching: I monitor all that myself, so you get a direct line to me. Not sure why you're running into these odd issues. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Quorneater on 2007 April 05, 17:54:05 Lunarpages has gone "off the boil" unfortunately. Oh well.
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 April 05, 21:14:36 Yesterday they lifted the 'Bandiwdth Exceeded' message, today it's back again.
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Jojoba on 2007 April 15, 09:13:28 Sorry to drag up an old thread..but I can't get on your site at all :? Just says the Bandwidth Exceeded message
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Pescado on 2007 April 15, 09:19:10 We're aware of the problem. At this point we're just waiting for DNS to propagate, the site has already been moved.
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Anouk on 2007 April 15, 10:00:22 In the meantime I wanna redesign the layout. Probably implemement css too. Any idea's for colors n stuff, feel free to post them here :)

Any idea's for colors n stuff, feel free to post them here :) Well, you got all the access keys you need, so do whatever you want. I wouldn't know what a CSS really is anyway. I only make ugly webpages that mirror the ugliness of my blackened and tarnished soul. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Captain Berg on 2007 April 15, 10:25:26 Pescado's web pages are all awesome!
But this was indeed good news! Good luck with everything, Nouk. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: ghengisjohn on 2007 April 15, 11:35:17 There's not enough brown/grey/blue websites out there. Nicely lake beachy, those tones.
Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: MizzKitty on 2007 April 16, 03:33:03 Awww poor Nouk. Just read this thread. Wasn't long ago I went to grab some of your awesome hairs and I want to pound on mean providers... Meh!
Oh and about colours... Uhh... Just not pink, ok? Pink is evil. Title: Noukiesims2 hosting account suspended Post by: Doursim on 2007 April 16, 03:48:19 PINK N GREY! so you can be cool like me. Make it as garish as possible.
