Yea that would be nice. if that is not possible there should be a on the keyboard button that you can press to move to the next one or there should be an option for users to make slide shows. because I noticed that I spend too much time clicking on images it seems like it wouldn't save much time but it does add up after a while
To be honest for me, it would help when I'm wading through pages of a model's gallery looking for a particular older pic to get the required older url to report a new dup.
And I say limited continuous for model galleries that will have a finite stop, rather than the more likely resource hungry infinite scroll for the main gallery of latest images https://www.girlswithmuscle.com/images/
The system is totally outdated, I agree. In the meantime, a work-around I found is just changing the page number in the URL. For example: https://www.girlswithmuscle.com/images/**3**/...
It makes it easier to dive into the middle of a girl's history instead of clicking 'next' forever.

I know already I can do that but it doesn't help when you need to view every page.
I hate continuous scroll. If you quit the page, you can't resume where you left off. You have to scroll from the top to bottom again. Take TikTok or Instagram as an example. Remember when YouTube used to have paginated searches and you could actually find stuff?
I really appreciate the practical simplicity of the UI of this site. No laggy animations, no trillions of HTML elements to render a button, searches with many filters (not the typical 1-input search thing) etc.

That's why I said ALTERNATIVE - this is not a request to make it the same for everyone. it also wouldn't suit every page as I already stated. Also it might not apply to all device platforms. I'm on PC full screen all the time for the site. no one would be forced to use it and even I likely would switch between it and pagination for certain tasks (as I also already said).

Yea that is why I would just prefer some buttons to make switching from picture to picture faster

I feel the same way. Continuous scroll is one of the worst aspects of current user-hostile web design philosophy. It feels like being put on a hamster wheel.
I imagine this will be a no-no due to strain on resources but when viewing a model gallery as an alternative to current pagination would a continuous scroll ever be viable?
I'm relieved to see the general consensus has been expressions of disdain for continuous/infinite scrolling. In addition to the drawback of losing your place as cited by simoncop73, and then echoed by many others, technically speaking, it's implemented partly on the server side, and partly on the user side.
The concern of strain upon the server would add X to the power of Y (add X additional images preloaded, to Y the number of active users at any given moment, so conservatively, add the max number of users + 1k). Based on prior posts by Chainer regarding server capacities, it's unlikely to be a strain on the server.
The REAL strain is user side. It's typically implemented with greedy JavaScript code that quickly consumes browser cache (read: device memory), and while that might be fine for someone on a gaming desktop, it's irresponsible to ask of people using their phones. Based on a recent poll, I seem to recall the majority access GWM on their phones.
The good news is, you had the right idea with your alternative solution. With minimal JavaScript and minor additions of html, Chainer could easily map the left and right arrow keys to allow you to move forward and backwards through a model's gallery images.
Even better news is, you can very likely save Chainer the trouble of making even minor changes, and save yourself the trouble of scouring a model gallery. The Yandex.com image search actively indexes GWM and kept the functionality that Google Image Search revoked over a decade ago. If you have an image, upload it to Yandex. If it exists on GWM, Yandex is likely to locate it with ease.

You have misread me twice. The "alternative " you cite, is not mine. Moving between full gallery images does not make finding duplicates any easier , just slower. I need to see multiple thumbnails first, not single full pictures. My alternative is simply to give people the choice of navigation ! Only chainer can confirm how viable that might be.
Secondly as I occasionally use it to find dups, Google picture search already almost immediately indexes images from GMW , - not sure what functionally you think has been lost for a decade there?
I have no plans to implement continuous scroll. I think it's mostly strictly inferior to pagination and sites mainly implement it because jumping to high page numbers is resource intensive for the server and they want to prevent that. Another downside is that if you navigate away from the page you lose your place.
I also don't want to have it as an alternative to pagination because that means I'm now maintaining two different ways of navigating the images which I don't want to do.
To be honest for me, it would help when I'm wading through pages of a model's gallery looking for a particular older pic to get the required older url to report a new dup.
It sounds like you just want more images displayed per page. I could make something like this an option for logged in users. Mods already have something like this for exactly this use case.
