Actually I don't think the sheer amount of data being stored is the REAL issue here. More xxxGB hard drives can be added to the stack and this is happening already when 'Rosity goes into downtime; the capacity is being expanded. Okay we're not talking infinity but how long is a piece of string? What definitely ISN'T infinite is bandwidth. The number of members is growing by the day, and the issue will simply be: how many people are trying to access Renderosity at any given point? The internet is an exchange of information, and every individual who is either uploading OR downloading will be adding to the strain borne by 'Rosity's servers. Sure, the two aspects are not wholly unrelated, and yes, two more images uploaded per day does constitute some more drive access. But in the scheme of things this just won't compare with the sheer numbers who all contribute to the strain just by going about their business surfing the galleries. So, to allude to nature once more, the issue is one of overpopulation, not so much about what each person does with their acre of land (after all, many people here are members simply to surf and comment, without posting any works of their own). Think of 'Rosity as being a building, and any surfing members being inside that building: you can only fit so many people into any one building before it's so jam-packed no one can move and everything grinds to a halt. The issue must be one of actively exchanged or "moving" data - bandwidth usage - not saved data. Not that I'm an expert or anything LOL but that's what springs to mind... I'm just not convinced that limiting uploads to one a day is gonna make a whole world of difference to the smooth (or otherwise) running of the site ;-D
