DAMN THE MAN, SAVE THE ICONS.
So! I'm not too pleased with my icons being gone, and considering Photobucket's latest restrictions (500MB and 10GB bandwith? really?), it doesn't look like I can continue using a free account. I can afford a Pro, but I'd really rather not, especially if there are other alternatives -- mostly because Photobucket has been pretty unimpressive with this whole thing. What with not warning anyone, making no announcements, still claiming "You have exceeded the 25 GB monthly bandwidth limit on your free Photobucket account" in my warning emails, and citing conflicting Pro prices on their website ("$24.95 a year") vs. the warning emails ("$39.95 for a full year"). GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT, PHOTOBUCKET.

So I don't want to give them my money. :x Can anyone recommend any good/cheap web hosting sites? I've never bought my own domain/serverspace before, but I'm highly considering it at this point. Do want to continue displaying icons, k.

I HAVE A HOME, ALL'S GOOD.

	!!! Oh my gosh, seriously? That would be so friendly and amazing, ydek. :O I'd already been pondering collective hosting, since your group-based thing definitely seems like the way more economical way to do it. I'd be more than happy to shunt over some dollah dollahs via Paypal or something to help cover serverspace costs? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
