What is the Celeb Archive?
The Celeb Archive is a free collection of pictures of male celebrities well organized in folders and subfolders. Pictures are taken form the internet, magazine, television directly from our users who wants to share their own collections with thousands of surfers everyday.
Registered users can upload pictures in existing folders with few clicks with many different technologies.
Do I have to register, is it for free?
Registration lets you enlarge pictures stored into the Celeb Archive and upload your personal collection of famous males pictures.
Everything here is FREE: pictures, videos, games and forum. Moreover registration is completely anonymous and very fast.
How do I upload pictures and videos?
Uploading pictures has never been easier: registered users may choose between many technologies, just select the one which fits your needs.
Regular upload is the most simple, choose the folder of the celebrity you want to update, select "browse" from the "Select a picture from your Hard Drive" box placed under the gallery, choose the picture file and click "upload".
Remote upload lets you choose a picture file stored on third party server and store it directly into the celebrity folder you want. Copy & Paste the URL into the "Link from a third party server" textbox placed under the gallery, click "upload".
Multiple upload is used to upload from your hard drive up to 20 pictures at the same time but requires Java execution. Click the "multiple upload" link placed above the gallery, when page loads Drag & Drop files you want to upload directly in the middle of the page, upload will start immediately. The first time you will access the multiple upload page the Archive will request rights to install a Java plugin which is needed to execute the multiple upload software.
Remote multiple upload lets you retrieve multiple files from third party servers in one time. Create a TEXT FILE (.txt) with notepad or any text editor, copy & paste URLs you want to upload separate by lines (hit ENTER after any url), save it and upload the text file via regular upload. Multiple upload will start immediately.
YouTube & myspace videos makes possible to upload videos into the Celeb Archive, choose a video on www.youtube.com or myspace video, copy the EMBED CODE, paste it in VIDEO text box placed under each gallery at the Celeb Archive and click "get the video".
Is there any restriction on what I upload?
As in any other family the Celeb Archive has its own rules and must be respected also in order to avoid legal issues that may occur easilly when managing famous people's pics.
Actually the only rules we have are made to preserve the Celeb Archive from force closing due to leagal actions so, please, respect them if you like the website.
What cannot be uploaded:
- Pictures in a wrong folder (each celeb has its own folder)
- Explicit sexual content (action) which is forbidden in ANY category
- Pictures that represents a boy under the legal age in its country or by the Italian law (18)
- Dupicates, pictures that already exists in the Archive
- Fakes for any good it may look
- Low res pictures under 150x150px (avoid thumbnails please)
- Pictures of models taken from porn websites (seancody.com, bukbuddies.com, randyblue.com and so on)
- Copyrighted material
- Personal pics in celeb's folders
- Frame by frame movie stills outside a proper dedicated subfolder (avoid too many similar pics in main folder).
Why should I upload pictures?
the Celeb Archive is made from users who decided to share their own collections of male celebrities pictures.
Uploading new pictures into the Celeb Archive you will make the archive even bigger and let other users enjoy your collection.
I cannot find a celeb, can I create new folders?
No, if you're a standard user this feature is locked. You may request a folder's creation via forum or writing an e-mail to ca@thecelebarchive.net an administrator will process your request and may create your folder within some hours. Requesting a new folder doesn't mean the folder will be created.
What are credits and why do I have to collect them?
Credits will let you become an administrator and rates your activity at the Celeb Archive. The more you upload good pictures, the more credits you will earn. You'll need 1000 credits to become an admin which means at least 1000 good pictures uploaded.
How do I collect credits?
+1 credit for each picture uploaded
+1 credit for each text description added
-2 credits for each bad picture deleted by an admin
-2 credits for each bad text description deleted by an admin
-4 credits for each admin who validated a pic which have been revalidated and censored by another admin
I lost some credits, why?
Sometimes you'll loose credits, this may happen when a picture that you uploaded have been removed by an administrator because of many reason:
- Wrong folder
- Explicit sexual content (action) which is forbidden
- Picture represents a boy under the legal age in its country or by the Italian law (18)
- Dupicate, picture already exists
- Fake
- Quality too low (avoid thumbnails please)
What are Coins?
Coins are our currency. You can use coins to buy Archived ZIP files and explicit pictures under the categories Porn and Fine Art Models. Coins can be purchased via paypal in Swiss Francs.
Why do I have to pay, wasn't it free?
YES! ONLY EXPLICIT PICTURES of PORN ACTORS must be payed. We took this decision to avoid and keep clean the Celeb Archive: nobody likes to pay for something that can be found for free on the net.
If someone still decide to download that kind of picture from the Celeb Archive then he will have to pay, supporting this way the server costs.
What are Archived Zip files?
All the pictures in a folder can be downloaded with a single click packed in a ZIP file.
How much does it cost?
Zip files draw an exceptional amount of bandwidth and for this reason must be payed. The cost vary on filesize and will scale from your wallet 4 Coins per MB downloaded.
What's the difference between Credits and Coins?
Credits are automatically given to evaluate your activity here at the Archive, they're given for every upload or biographic info you'll share.
Coins are like a currency, they must be purchased and then spent to buy Explicit Pictures of Porn actors or Zip files.
Why am I asked to pay to see images?
As we always said the Celeb Archive will ALWAYS BE FREE and managed by users who upload and share pictures.
The only pictures you'll ever be asked to pay is EXPLICIT FRONTAL and BACK images of PORN ACTORS.
To avoid undiscriminated porn upload we decided to keep it under control by making it pay per click.
This means that porn actors are still available at the Celeb Archive but that you'll need to pay a fee to see explicit pictures which goes for the website maintenance.
In few words, we took this decision for two reason:
1. Keep under control porn (nobody likes to pay for it)
2. Collect money to pay the server costs.
Why do I see "picture unavaible" in galleries?
Since we experienced many problems in the past, nowday the Celeb Archive validates each uploaded picture before it can be avaible on the galleries.
The same message may appear in some cases when pictures have been deleted by an admin within the few minutes before your visit.
Who are administrators?
Administrators are common users who made a great job in uploading pictures earning at least 1000 credits. Becoming an administrator means having some features extension such as the rights to create and delete folders and subfolders, assign a celeb's category, administrate forum posts, validate uploaded pictures and descriptions.
Can I become administrator?
Yes, administrators were standard users who earned at least 1000 credits. When reaching the 1000 credits the Celeb Archive will automatically change your status from "standard user" to "administrator".
Why do you validate pictures?
Pictures must be viewed one by one by administrators before publishing because the Celeb Archive is made of consistent and good quality pictures. Rarely you'll find fakes, duplicates or misplaced pictures, in this case please give us your feedback via forum or using the specific link placed under each picture in detailed view. We want to build a high quality and complete archive of male celebrities, we believe this is the way.
How long takes pictures validation?
Picture validation generaly takes only few minutes but may require up to 12 hours.
