I'm seeing a lot of knee jerk, and little real thought. No matter where something is stored, there are two things that either exist or they don't. One is bandwidth, the other is space on a storage device of some kind. Neither are free for anyone, somewhere along the line, someone is paying for both.
BB mentions Google sites are free, okay, free as long as someone is able to pay for them one way or another, and nobody can say for how long. Wade through a list of websites trying to find something? Be my guest.
Ten bucks being too much in the poserverse? About what I paid for daz pc membership until I cut that off. Per month, not per year. Go to any of the poser inclusive sites and you can damage your credit card a lot more in a hurry.
I doubt that many are much different from me, make something interesting to yourself and decide to see if anyone else is interested by the same thing. But expect completely free space to puit it on? Thankful that it's been there, yes. Expect it, no. Somewhere along the line it has to be paid for or it won't exist.
And on the daz forums, I've seen people whining about putting things up, then taking down everything they had, the general excuse I read is not enough ego strokes. Now complaining that they might have to pay to get the ego strokes. TANSTAAFL.
