Either you get this concept, or you don't. In this scheme, you are setting yourself up for (...) (21 years ago, 31-Oct-03, to lugnet.publish)

If the payment was done on a resource-consumption basis, the guy like you that chokes out a gigabyte or two of bandwidth each month would be paying much, much more than the small price you (...)

| (...) Why equally split? Suppose I have a high traffic site that hosts movies and therefore consumes lots of bandwidth. Why should I get to pay the same as some guy who hosts a few highly compressed gifs and doesn't get a lot of traffic. Very unfair (...)

| I'm unconvinced as to why you'd need this. Plenty of people provide free hosting, for example I bet your ISP does. Now the space available on these sites is limited but then the majority of the large stuff on your site would actually be on (...) (21 years ago, 31-Oct-03, to lugnet.publish)

I've found a very useful lighting technique: lighting from beneath. It can help make pics like this: (URL) (...) (21 years ago, 28-Oct-03, to lugnet.publish.photography, FTX)
