Attached Link: Relativity
As some of you may be aware, I recently changed my hosting to a new host. However, after signing up with them, it came to my attention that they dont allow htaccess files, which effectively makes my store useless. But, they didnt make any mention of that in their sales blurb....obviously I wouldnt have signed up with them if they had. So, until i decide what to do (or rather, what I can afford) I'm just parking some free stuff there. Just added some new stuff into the freestuff section, but for those who cant wait....here are all the links....enjoy the stuff, and i sincerely hope to get a normal service resumed asap.
best wishes to all
Andi

i feel i ought to add....the only way I can get a refund on the crappy hosting package is if they cant cope with the amount of bandwidth i generate.....hint, hint

Andi3D, this stuff is killer, and adding that mattress with skin covering would be A1 stuff! I think your provider should start worrying now...

Thank you for the freebies. A question, maybe naive, but still I think it is worth to ask in your circumstances... If I click on the link and then cancel when the window comes up with SAVE AS, does that help increasing the bandwidth you use? Cause if it does, I'm sure nobody here would mind doing that at least a couple of times in the next hour. ;o) What is your monthly bandwidth allocation? daily allocation? hourly allocation? If we had known that a couple of weeks ago, we would have asked you to host our Fairytale Project (3dSaraCreations) that busted our monthly bandwidth allocation in less than 10 hours! loll France

i'm fairly sure that its just the actual amount of data transferred....pity theoretically, its an unlimited bandwidth package, but there is a clause that states if they are unable to host it due to high bandwidth usage, they will refund the fee .... thats what i'm aiming for, as i feel slightly aggrieved they didnt state that htaccess files cannot be used in their sales description of the package. Since thats essential to the store setup im using, it makes the whole thing useless. still, as i say, its worth a try, and if i cant get a refund, i'll certainlt get my moneys worth from bandwidth usage. ;-) so, tell your friends, famile, pets etc to get in and download some stuff....please.....pretty please.

Did you try to get a refund or did you just take it for granted that they will only reimburse you for the reasons you mentioned? I think if they are honest they should see the good sense in your request. P.S. Could you tell us the name of that web hosting service so we don't make the same mistake?

I have all the bone freebes and now I just added more to my collections. These are my favs of all the freebes. Please make more of them.
Andi3d posted Wed, 18 May 2005 at 2:19 PM
i did ask, and also asked if i could transfer the hosting to use for another domain...was hoping to let someone else have it, but that fell through. the answers were no and yes respectively. you'll note i'm not vindictive enough to name them, and thereby harm their business in any way at all.....all i want is my cash back for what i see as a blatant omission.

Francemi posted Wed, 18 May 2005 at 2:24 PM
Well I don't think naming them is being vindictive. If you were caught in that, others might be to. It would be a service to render to your fellow Poser users. I don't say that for me as I just signed up for 38 months at PowWeb and they offer all the resources you could need.

Hey Andi I know I've got a lot of your freebies somewhere but damned if I can find them. I guess I'll have to download all of them again. And then due to some pain meds I've been taking I'm sure I'll forget where I saved them to, so I'll probably have to download them all over again. I might want to save a copy of them to another drive on my network too. I'd like to see how fast one of those "unlimited bandwidth" sites moves a file, do you have any other test files we could download... it's ok if they're large. Extremely large. evil grin
jwiest posted Wed, 18 May 2005 at 3:05 PM
Well...got sidetracked, but am now finally downloading. I forget what other freebies of yours I've downloaded before, but maybe upload all of them (if this isn't all of it) and I'd download those again. :) Dunno about downloading the same stuff over and over though. And you could put more new stuff up there too. lol ;)

Andi, I use MYQTH for several of my sites - for $48 a year you get 1GB space and 40GB/month bandwidth plus password protected directories which you can do either via the control panel or via Front Page if you have it as FP extensions are a free option. Touch wood (hand on head)I've not had any downtime eitherGill

So, is the freebie section of your site online? Or just these downloads? I tried to go check and see if there were any other boners I've missed. And not suprisingly, the frontpage says the site is offline. I'm just curious.
Francemi posted Wed, 18 May 2005 at 10:36 PM
Katoran, I can access to Andi's website (homepage). There is a note by Andi saying that the content of the website is unavailable for the moment but the freebies are still available... I just downloaded all the freebies from this topic and all the freebies from the Freestuff here. ;o) Andi, your host seems to have a large capacity ;o( Did you post this message in other forums? DAZ, PoserPros, etc.

Actually, what we need is a challenge to use Relativity in some creative way. Hmm... thinking hat on.... And thanks for the new freebies. I like that table: it is very inventive. There is a sort of gruesome grace to these boners. Carolly
Andi3d posted Thu, 19 May 2005 at 1:48 AM
hey folks, the front page was put up while we were doing the changeover to this current host....before I discovered the lack of being able to use htaccess files. I'm thinking of putting a temporary page, with links to all my currently available free stuff in its place. Katoran, all the currently available boners are in my freestuff here at Rosity :-)

Thanx for your 1,231 freebies. But... some of them seem to be the same. Like... Relativity_146 looks exactly like Relativity_001 thru 145. mmm.. I must be doing something wrong somewhere. My bad.
