do you have a stable website/server (as in, it's not changing anytime in the near and far future), and have extra bandwidth to spare?

anime-planet uses up around 60 GIGS of traffic a month. i'm trying to cut down on this as much as possible, and thus, i'm looking for one volunteer who can be the official banner host. i'd post about the banners more prominently (or i want to in the near future, at least), and then people would link to your webspace where the banners would be. this would be for people who put the banners in their signature for other forums, or other sites, etc.

i'd be willing to send you a few promo posters or discuss other goodies in exchange, and you'd be mentioned on the staff page (once i make it) for hosting them (with a link to your personal site, even).

i just really need for your space to be very stable, and to allow hotlinking of images. it would be really bad if suddenly your site was gone, or the server was down a lot, showing broken x's in various places.

any volunteers? :) i'm going to try to lower bandwidth in various ways in the upcoming week/s

I might be able to do that... pm me with info on it.

sothis · 01-12-2005, 11:23 AM

How many mb are we talking here total? I have "unlimited trafic" but only a 125 mb (Wanna have most of it to myself =) )

I have two offers:

1: Unlimited traffic, but the bandwidth is capped at 10kByte/sec.
This will be my webserver at home.

2 In the very soon future (as in 'days') I have webspace on a dedicated 100MBit server. Traffic will be limited, but I can safely spare 5 gigs a month for anime-planet, maybe more.

Tell me if one of the two is of your liking (or maybe both ;) )

i have no idea how much bandwidth the graphics will use, to be honest. it's just banners, so perhaps there could be a trial run? you could see how much that folder uses..

Then I suggest a trial run on my server at home. During the test I can free some bandwidth (i.e. shutdown some P2P progs) to improve webserver perfomance.

BTW: Can you create a hostname based on anime-planet.com?

I haven't heard a final decision yet, Kaz.
If someone offers something better, it's obvious that my offer will be declined. Simple as that. Logical too.

sothis · 01-12-2005, 01:27 PM

kaz: i asked what other info you'd need :D whocares gave specific info so i mentioned stuff to him ;)

i don't care who hosts it, as long as its stable and i know the person :)
