For those with web photogalleries about how much bandwidth do you use in a month?

Thanks...


I use coppermine, specs are:

83 users
3865 files
188 albums
Viewed 11004 times


This gets me about 12GB each month of usage. Some times its more sometimes its a bit less..think about it before you do it.
I dont mind the usage, my users get 60MB of space, a lot more than most places to say the least but it is work on my end for something that is free to them....

It really all depends on the specifics of your gallery, the types of images hosted, and the type/amount of traffic you will be getting. I run a dedicated server in dallas and we host galleries that go anywhere from a few megabytes a month to one that pushes over 200 gigs/month in traffic.
