heya; also, poserworld and props guild bring people to their pages to view ads, which pay for the sites, so.... if you were to link directly to a file on there, you'd get the same 'remote linking and not seeing ads' deal and make people grumpy. :) thats a cool idea to try to get enough server space and bandwidth here to host files again. though im not sure it makes sense to ask people to pay even a nominal fee to host free downloads... :) what we really need is a co-operative files database, so you can search for stuff not just on this site, but in the other major download areas as well.
