If bbzzdd were rehosted elsewhere...

[quakefiend420]

would you be willing to pay something like $1+paypal fees per month to be able to host images there and help support the server costs?

just wondering

No, I'd use my Comcast file storage like I mostly do now anyway.

Here's a thought. Host pics using your own domain. :Q

 

[RossMAN]

Like I said via PM AT'ers are cheap, you might get $20/mo in donations but that's about it.

DeviousTrap has offered to host pics.bbzzdd.com for free in the past, not sure if his offer still stands.

Good luck 🙂

YES

I just started using it and it sure is slow.

 

[dighn]

har har no i have my own hosts. bbzzdd is merely a convenience (b/c of the web interface)

how much does it really use up in storage?

I thought Paypal's EULA says that you're not allowed to pass fees on to customers?

Storage isn't really the issue as much as the insane bandwidth.

dwell or Modeps would know, I think anywhere from 6-10GB.

As Nik stated it's more an issue of bandwidth or the data center/network.

I wonder if there's a way to pool the cumulative bandwidth of ATOTers into a single pic hosting site? Kind of like DFS

Nope, it's everywhere. Can't do it here on AT.

WOW, that's it? I mean, that's nothing. Not even 1/4 a T1 ... I can sneeze away more bandwidth than that and not notice.

edit - I mean that I work at a datacenter and 80-100GB/mo is -nothing-. I allocate more bandwidth for broadcast traffic than that ;-)

edit2 - FYI, a 1.544mbps T1 going full blast for a month is ~500GB

well then, you could always just make the base fee 1.39 or whatever it would work out to be to where a dollar gets through...technically that wouldn't be in violation of their TOS, right?
