Due to some policy changes and a reduction in bandwidth at Spaceports Strike a Pose textures has gone the way of many sites.. It is an extensive site and until I can figure out an alternative it is no more. Sorry about that folks it is out of my control. Helen

If you need bandwidth for any free stuff you may have, let me know and I'll see if I can set you up here for that portion of it... email me at tjmiller@datc.tec.ut.us /P

Bummer! I trust this is NOT the end of an era for a landmark site. Hopefully Strike a Pose will find a new home soon!

That is a shame to hear Helen :( Talk to Penguinisto.. He helped me out with Bree's reflection maps :)) Thanks again Penguinisto!

I appreciate the offer Penguinisto However STP is over 100mb in size.. My freestuff downloads for here are housed on another site so that is no problem.. I have found out that finding another site is not going to be an easy task... Ones that have the space have file size and bandwidth limitations and those without the limitations don't have the space. On to Plan B... Just gotta think of it.

Helen - take a look at amhosting.com. They have some hosting plans with 100's MB space w/unlimited bandwidth. While their TOS specifies it can't be used primarily for file storage, write the support and tell them what type of site you have, and ask if it falls within their guidelines for acceptable use. Their pricing is very reasonable considering. btw, I do have about an extra 25MB space if you need to host some files, and wouldn't mind at all donating the space! Hope this helps! -silver

Sorry to hear that Helen. "Strike a Pose" has always been one of THE VERY BEST Poser web sites out there. Hope you can find a solution soon. Dave

take a look at cyberwings.com. I got the # 9 package a couple of weeks ago for $35.00 year and the sale price is locked in for the future. It took about a week to get set up because they are BUSY. I think Alla got her space there too. So far, so good.
