MSN Photo and numerous other free photo hosting sites have disallowed hotlinking. Obviously this is a problem for those on here who produce their own content (photos, photoshops, etc.) and don't have web-hosting. I was thinking about getting a decent-sized account on some host (perhaps Boomspeed, which will give you 100MB for $6/mo).
Any thoughts on this? I want to know WHO would use it (I'd offer it for free, you'd just have to email your pics to me and wait for me to post them), and if anyone has any recommendations as to what service would be best.

OK. I'm just trying to see if it would be worth the effort to set up one large offsite storage repository. I'll wait for more people to get onto the site and see what they think...

Just checked web1000. They expect that a certain amount of the bandwidth you consume will be HTML page views. Since I just want to serve files, that may not be ideal.

#5, Any suggestions for a cheap host? I'll pay the bills if they're reasonable.

I'd use it. Hell, I'd have to. Goddamn Microsoft. Funny, though, I thought MSNphotos was for sharing photos....

#8, Actually, you're one of the specific reasons I was thinking of doing this (IF I can find a good host for the purpose). I don't want to have to re-link your pics too many more times, but I want to keep them up here. :-)

#9, Yeah, I want to keep them up here too. Some of them took a lot of effort. Most of them didn't, but what the hell, it's worth it for those that did.

Do you have any idea how much bandwidth the Ricecop main site consumes? And what about RiceOrNot itself?

Holy cow. And you're only serving HTML off of RiceOrNot (well, that and a couple of small graphics). Just trying to gauge what we'd need for a transfer limit.

I'm still thinking of going with Boomspeed. $6/mo. and they'll give 100MB, hotlinking, and "unlimited usage". They'll also allow the creation of webpages and FTP access.
