Looks like the host is gone. No more sig.
----------------------------------------![]() It's back! Thanks for all the hard work SNURK. ![]()

The bandwidth from the old host is indeed gone completely
----------------------------------------![]() Today I'm working on a solution. Sekerob, I've got an important question for you before I continue. I'm looking at Photobucket right now, for it has a large bandwidth (10GB per month I read). It has it's drawbacks, the biggest one for me being no FTP upload, but I'll get around I hope. Anyway, I see you're using Photobucket too, so what I need to know is, let's say I've uploaded this file: http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/af195/wcgsig/428530.gif Will this URL always stay the same no matter how many times I remove and upload again, or will the 'i1007' or 'af195' be incremented over time? If so I'm screwed of course. |

Hi SNURK;
----------------------------------------The Photobucket URLs are static else I could not put the links up, but regrettably you´ll have to delete the images before uploading, else the file suffix increments -1 -2 -3 etc. You can set up a folder e.g. SNURK\SIG and delete all content daily and upload a new set (View All, Select All, Delete). The monthly free budget is 10GB BW and at the time asked not to continuously hit Ctrl-F5 to minimize downloads, but in the end set up an unlimited account since they shrunk the monthly from 20GB sometime last year. Present stats show 5GB used and since September 7, 24850 image views. 250 sigs, 2 freshes daily, 31 days, at X size by Y viewers will give you an idea. The bulk upload function made things very easy, but the 20 odd stats images upload does not compare to the volume you'll see developing over time. --SekeRob

Thanks a lot for the quick reply.
----------------------------------------So I'll continue on this path. I already found out I have to remove sigs before uploading new ones to avoid the annoying added file suffix. I figured with 10GB of bandwidth a month and the sigs being only 14,5 KB a piece I have enough for 725,000 hits a month or about 1000 hits per hour. |

Oh, btw, on limiting download BW use... Photobucket since a while wont sent a new image if there's only minor changes (Google Picasa same) i.e. If in the morning someone gets a clean copy and in the afternoon Ctrl-F5 is used, the client gets silently told to get the local cache copy, so you might see some posting to say their sig did not update after noon stats ;>)
