I would hate to have a surprise 5GB day to pay for though. Some kind of cgi that would serve only x copies (...) (22 years ago, 17-Dec-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish)

I have all of my Lego content at (URL) which is hosted by DixieSys. I pay a whopping $4/mo for my space/BW. I managed to get in on a 2-for-1 sale, so I have 6Gigs/mo for that $4.

Thanks Lar... a nice and respectable response. (...) It does... but, for the record I guess, I'm not frustrated in the sense that I go around all day consumed by BrickShelf's deterioration.
