Avatar gallery back online

[Chris Cromer]

Have a look, this has been reported already 2 posts up in this topic. It is being worked on so be patient.

The Avatar-Gallery causes something like 40-50 GB traffic per month... i bet that every host that promises "unlimited bandwidth for 9.99$/month" will kick you before the first month is over *g* The Webspace isn't a problem....

I understand that.
What I was saying, was isp's over here in England and i'm sure it applies to America to, don't have restrictions on TRAFFIC....
Meaning I could fill my 50mb of webspace up with say.....a 49mb zip file and have 100 people download it and they wouldn't care.
Worth bearing in mind, i'm talking about isp's not webhosts
So if the actuall STORAGE area doesn't need to have php or mysql installed, then you should consider sticking all the jpegs/gifs on a isp account
It's cheesy..but would save you a fair buck i'm sure

America keeps tabs on Bandwidth for sure altho I have 80 gigs to play with on my server.

Just thought I would let you know.

Here's a suggestion for you. Because you don't want people linking to the images, and because you're worried about bandwidth, zip up all the images and stick them in your downloads section. That way we get all of them at once and can upload whatever images we want to our avatars folder without wasting your bandwidth.

It's okay, I've already added the necessary code to the .htaccess to prevent it.
