JPEG images have a wealth of unnecessary information. I wouldn't say, that this information usually reveals the identity of the creator, but it is possible. In theory, a jpeg can have your full name, address, bank account, social security number, blood group and sexual preferences, among other, pretty much anything that someone would like to add. It could even contain a joke about privacy maniacs, even in French. But mormally, it rather contains information about the image processor, camera, size, date and the like.
Here a quick method to see (most of???) this info, if you have windows xp, should work on newer windows too:
Right-click an image, select "properties" and there "file properties". The text fields shown here, are usually empty. Now click "more" or whatever button you have to show more. This will show you a lot of information, most of which is not necessary to display the image properly.
If you like to remove all useless information, there is a small program available here:
The website also explains, which information can be displayed, altered or removed on jpegs by this very program.
The program runs in a dos window and perhaps you need some explanation. Follow these steps for a simple start on windows XP:
- download the program "jhead"
- in explorer (the file explorer from windows), go to "C😕documents and settings\<username>, where <username> has to be replaced by your logon name for windows.
- create a new folder there, give it a short name, as you will have to type it soon - "a" will do perfectly.
- Copy jhead.exe (the program, you just downloaded) to this new folder.
- Copy all images you want to process or check to this folder too.
(do yourself a favor, and really copy, don't move the files. You can delete the originals later, if you like, but you can't retrieve any information that you are going to remove in the next steps).
- Push "ctrl+esc", then click on "run", enter "cmd" into the text field there, push enter. This will open a dos window at "c😕documents and settings\<username>".
- from now on, forget about your mouse, you have to type all commands here.
- type "cd a" and push enter. This assumes, that the new folder, you have created a few steps earlier, is called "a".
- type "jhead -purejpg *.jpg" and push enter, to remove all header data from all jpeg files in this folder. This step is irreversable, but that doesn't matter, since you are working on copies only (you didn't move the files, did you?). The jpegs are automatically updated in this new folder, the originals in their original places aren't touched.
If you want to change a single file, but have many files in the new folder, simply replace "*.jpg" by the complete file name. The asterisk "*" stands for "anything", so any file ending with ".jpg" will be altered if you use "*.jpg". There are more options, feel free to study the dos section in windows help.
Now you can look at the file information again, and you will see, that only some basic and vital information remains: width, height, vertical and horizontal resolution, colour depth and number of images (apparently, a jpeg file could contain more than one image).
For those, familiar with dos and dos programs, here a nifty command:
"jhead -h > jhead.txt
This will write the complete documentation of jhead into a text file "jhead.txt" and you can read this in notepad or any other text editor.
And you can add "> filename" to any command in dos, and all output will be written to the file "filename".
By the way, removing the information and the internal thumbnail will reduce the file size insignificantly.
PS: dos in this context has nothing in common with DOS-Attacks, which stand for "denial of service attacks" and are aimed to make a computer inoperational. Instead, dos here stands for "disk operating system" and is a more basic way of operating a computer, than windows. Still a product from Microsoft though.
PPS: If you have any questions about using the program, ask them here. In case you don#t get an answer within one or two days, feel free to send me a private message, I might not check this thread every day.
PPPS: DISCLAIMER
I am not the author of this program. It seems free from virus, trojans and any other malicious functions and it seems to work as described on the website and in the help section. I you have specific questions about the program, contact the author directly.
I checked all instructions given in this post and they worked well on my computer. However, path names can be different on your computer and in theory there could be reasons why these procedures won't work on your computer or even do damage. This is your risk. But it doesn't mean, that using the program really involves any risk, it rather means, that even after thorough tests, I can't exclude the possibility of surprising effects.
The idea is to use an inflatable rubber boat that is long enough to accomodate one person lying flat on his back. It would be covered with a rubber or pvc sheet that is attached to the bottom of the boat from the outside and there should be a breathing tube of course. The operation would be as follows: The person enters the non-inflated boat, underneath the sheet, puts the breathing tube into a suitable position and then starts an electrical pump to inflate the boat.
In theory, the sheet is large enough to cover the flat boat and will stretch a bit to accomodate the victim. When the boat is inflated, the walls will rise and pull up the sheet. The sheet can't go up, because there is no air getting inside. The air which is trapped already, will be thinned, and while the air pressure outside is higher, it should go up, i.e. along the walls of the rubber boat. And when there is no air around the victim, the sheet will enclose him completely and hold him tight against the floor of the boat (we could add a mattress for comfort, an air-mattress with a little bit of air should expand too). There is one thing that this method is based upon: The flat walls have a length x, which is the overlapping length of walls and sheet. Once the walls are inflated, they will first have a circular cross section, wich has exactly the circumference of 2 times X and the sheet will cover 3/4 of that, which is 1.5x - the sheet widith has to expand by 0.5 times X because there is no air between sheet and boat, and therefore the sheet has to stay close to the boat. Of course, the air will expand a bit and this might be compensated by further inflating the walls, which then will have a circumference that is larger than 2 times X. And as soon as the walls are higher than the victims body, their tops are the highest points and the air should theoretically go there, leaving void, nothing, no space between victim, boat and sheet anywhere else.
This scenario is highly hypothetical, and I am not sure if it would work as expected. A rubber sheet might expand too much, while pvc might be too rigid. And perhaps the idea of the air gathering at the top of the walls is wrong.
I don't have a rubber boat, buying one, plus the sheet and an electrical air pump might be even more expensive than a vacuum bed, but the whole thingy would be completely innocent, if not in use and could be stowed away in a relatively small place. What do you think, how likely is this idea to work?
An obvious alternative would be an inflated rubber boat with a sheet cover and a vacuum pump sucking out the air inside. But the vacuum might have to be applied in several places at the same time, to make sure that it gets all trapped air. And the vacuum has to be maintained, the pump would have to run all the time.
Release: The hose from pump to boat should be removed and hopefully, the boat doesn't have a one-way valve (an exsting one could be disabled).
I made a drawing showing the cross section of the boat plus sheet, inflated and flattened:
i was looking at buying a .ZIP set from the RE store, has anyone had problems with credit card numbers stolen or mail to your home (ETC.) after buying?
I'm Dan and I'm a newbie around here. However, I've been interested in selfbondage for a while. I'm a transgender girl and, while looking for information about selfbondage techniques, I found this site. I was inspired to complete a selfbondage session when I read about the pantyhose uni-glove technique here, so I prepared my first session (named 00 as it was just a test) which I want to share with you all:
The idea in this session was to be bounded/seated on the table so the anal-plug I was using wouldn't come out. My feet were somehow restrained by putting my two legs into a nylon stocking with open end:
To make sure I remained seated, I used a pantyhose to tie myself to the table. As releasing mechanism, I used two ice cubes (one on each leg of the pantyhose) and a lock to keep them in place. Once tied to the table, I decided to get sexy and get ready for the uniglove:
For the uni-glove I used a leggin, but cut one leg so my face was uncovered (for safety). In fact, the part that I cut was the same I used to tie my legs. Under these conditions, I forced myself into the uniglove. it wasn't easy, but eventually I became bondaged:
At that point the feeling was amazing and scary at the same time. Even though I tried to get out of the uniglove, I just couldn't. In addition to that, I'm not strong enough to rip it off. Then, my only hope was to wait for the ice cubs to melt so I could stand and reach the scissors placed under the table. Still, while fighting to release myself, I was able to release my feet. That allowed me to slide over the table and take out the stocking from the table at one end. This gave me the chance to stand up, reach the scissors and free myself. It was a short session (about 15 minutes) but I think it was a good start... what do you think?
I would like to try this session again with the following improvements:
Tie legs with a rope, so I can't free them, leaving me with the only option of the ice cubs melting
Pass the stocking through the middle of the table, so I can't not slide it out at one of the ends
Use a gag... I just couldn't find one in my local sex shop this time
Use a pantyhose instead of the leggin for the uni-glove, then it would be more difficult to take and use the scissors
I am not sure if anyone is interested in rainskirts (not the insulating ones on the power cables), but I am going to compile a list of suppliers and makers here. I have seen many varieties and materials, ranging from simple pvc or polyester to stylish high-tech fabrics.
Not sure, if I would like to see those on the streets. But the second picture is really cool!
Personally, I like simple boots with long narrow shafts below the knees. Ugg boots are positively debatable as well. I think, men's legs get way too little attention these days. Well, here an article about men and ugg boots:
This thread is not about men wearing women's boots, but about the range of styles available and why there isn't more anymore. The last time, I easily found long men's winter boots, was around 1987!
I am full of ideas these days. In a different thread, I reported that it should be possible to use a stack of water crates to wrap oneself with cling film (under "Zentai and plastic self-mummification"). Now, I got the idea, that doing that while wearing a cape might be easier, because the cape itself will do a good job on the torso and arms. There is, however, a small problem: It could be extremely difficult to get out of such a wrap alone, without destroying the cape.
Well, I bought two rolls of the cheapest cling wrap, each 50m, which turned out to be quite strong and started a first experiment: I have a buttoned cape from strong rubberised material, and I thought. this should allow me to get through to the film and destroy it. I made a stack from two office boxes with drawers, wrapped cling film around it at the height of my hips and a bit above. Then I put on the cape and grabbed the end of the cling film in between two buttons and wrapped. While wrapping, I also folded the excess width of the cape a bit to make it tighter. The film wrapped nicely around my hips and belly, but I could not pull it really tight, because the film didn't adhere to the cape. In the end, though, my lower body was effectively sealed off from reach with my hands. It turned out then, that I could pull out the cape from the cling foil belt relativey easily. If pvc has similar adhesion with cling film, it will be the same there.
At first sight, this is bad, but here is what I think:
If the cape can be pulled up, it means that I can reach the wrap eventually and start cutting or tearing it apart. Until then, I am tightly wrapped in pvc, which is probably much nicer to struggle against and will effectively keep me from escaping right away. It might even create an illusion of a secure mummification for a while (that usually ends right away after I come). And while wrapped up to the shoulders, perhaps with some over-the-shoulder wraps to seal it off, I can't pull the cape out. Instead, I will have to shift some of it up, until I can reach the wrap and break it, then work my way up. According to my experiences, it will take a while, before I will start such a challenge. This sounds good enough to carry on. More later.
Have anyone tried this Lockable Pantyhose as self bondage or on your Wife or Girlfriend as in BDSM foreplay before sex?
I use a length of waist chain (actually a doggy chain measure to the victims waist length) and attach a mini PadLock in between the pantyhose waist band and panty area by utilizing the stainless steel shackle hook to pierce gently through the nylon without causing the pantyhose to ladder or run.
I worn it over a day to office this way to test the functionality to my surprised it did not obstruct any of my toilet functions. I just pull down the pantyhose over my tight as I sit on the toilet bowl to shit. To pee while standing, I just pull out my dick to the side of the pantyhose opening clearance of the waist belt and it is done.
It would be nice to play a pre-sex game with your wife or girlfriend by getting her to wear this Lockable Pantyhose Waist Chain PadLock in the morning before she goes to work and when she is back, ask her what is her experience felt, then followed with a romantic night starts off with the doggy style on her from her back with the Lockable Pantyhose still lock onto her until the night is done for release later. It would be exciting experience trust me!
I had so much fun making a rain skirt out of an old pvc bicycle rain cape, that I would like to share this in detail.
What you need: A PVC rain cape (other capes work too, but I used such a cape), a pair of scissors and a little bit of patience for a better cutting edge cutting.
I simply cut off the lower 2/3 of the cape - perhaps a bit less or more, about the length I wanted the skirt, plus a few centimeters. I tried to make the cut a bit round, not exactly scientificly, but I hoped to make it follow the hip line better that way, it worked. I also had to trim the bottom line, because someone (not me, I got this cape from a friend) had cut it a bit shorter with an axe or so. That's it, a new rain skirt. I tossed the shoulder part and hood, because it was torn there - and one of the reasons, why I didn't hesitate to recycle it. Actually, the cape was pretty old, dull and wrinkled too, but after a hot shower, the skirt turned out okay.
Now, the result seems a bit wide for a skirt, and actually, it is a special wraparound skirt. For another forum, I made a tutorial and here it is (click the picture below, it will open in a new window, the numbers refer to the steps of the following description).
1. Step into the skirt and hold it tight towards the left.
2. With the right hand, hold together both skirt layers that go off the body.
3. Move the left hand forward and around your body while keeping the cloth tight, the right hand holds the fold in place.
4. Move the skirt layers to your left, until they form a new layer of the skirt.
5. Now the hands swap their positions, grip the upper border at the ends of the triple layer and fold it outside approximately 1 or 2 centimeters. Continue this fold to the front center, then roll it down a bit tightly, to secure it in place.
6. Done 😊
Around the hips, the skirt has to be tight. You have to try, how tight is necessary, it also depends on the material. This method even works with slippery silk, so it is definitely safe. Many men, who wear dhotis or lungis, can confirm this worldwide. In order to believe this, you might have to wear the skirt for a while, best run around, jump, dance etc.
The triple layer of the skirt makes it absolutely walkable, probably you can even do the splits (legs horizontal to the sides). Well, if you are a can-can dancer, better try it without audience first.
Have fun!
And a few pictures
When looking for "rain skirt" in google, I found a few reports of men wearing those as an alternative to rain pants during hiking. The reason mentioned is that in pants - especially rain pants, very especially pvc pants - you sweat much more. I have made the pictures about an hour ago, room temperature is at least 20°C (68°F), I am not sweating although I am also wearing wellingtons, my jeans and a t-shirt (took of the jacket because it was in the way while shooting the tutorial pictures).
I hope that some people pick this up and perhaps even post their images here.
Hello,
I'm asking if anyone knows any good bondage tutorlals sites. I'm trying to expand on my rope work skills with the mrs. But I'm not that skilled whith the knots. I'm looking for sites with pictures and some explanation on how to do the ropework.
