Taz, you have no idea of the bandwidth or the file storage that's required by this site. This ain't some penny-ante personal site (like mine is, for instance)! This is a free service of professional quality, with thousands of regular users. I'm amazed that this site, and Renderotica, have been up so long, considering the costs. The bandwidth of 'Rosity alone would be enough to drag down many an ISP. Get real, and think before you type. The only problem I have with ads is that they don't pay much. I get about 1,000 hits a day on my site, and never got a single penny from the ads I ran for months. Almost any business setup that the admins here can come up with has my support, if it keeps these sites and their wonderful resources available and free! 100 MB storage? 3,000 MB per month bandwidth? That's not even in the same ballpark as what these sites require! Just because you state that you know the business aspects of running Web sites doesn't make it true. Obviously.
