If only there was some way to donate unused bandwidth. I've paid for up to
400MB/day for 2 years on pair and filled about 25 of it on average. I would
hate to have a surprise 5GB day to pay for though. Some kind of cgi that
would serve only x copies of the image or movie or download per day, like
tickets to a performance.

I know that a great many people use Brickshelf for image deep linking
(myself included).  The bandwidth demands for a site with as many pictures
as Brickshelf can be pretty impressive for someone who has to pay for
bandwidth.  As an example, before I switched my images to brickshelf (and
then again to Alex Cruz' mirror) the Star Wars ISD comic strip I wrote up
was pulling 5 gigs a day of bandwidth.

(...) Doesn't Pair drop the busiest day? I don't think it would be very ethical or practical, but we could have brickshelf rotate each day between each of our accounts and not have to worry about it again. :) Ben Roller (22 years ago, 18-Dec-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish)
