Most dedicated servers come with 1500 - 2000 gb or 2 terabyes of bandwidth depending on where you buy it.....

Bet that costs a pretty penny

i agree with using your own hosts as imageshack also puts links in the images now for 9.90 a month u can get 1.5 gb of space and 25 gb of bandwidth

Imageshack has never deleted an image for me. Photobucket on the other hand sucks. You should allow imageshack but ban other free hosts :blink:

The big issue is that those sites restrict bandwidth heavily and many people end up getting broken images because of it.

Good decision, free hosts are too unreliable.

yeah get rid of image hosts... People come here to see tutorials, they dont come here to see dead links.. I agree...

Get rid of free hosts :)

Flickr is a very reliable host. Its owned by Yahoo so the chance of it going down is slim. And Faken, there are plenty of willing member to help with the dead links problem. And I am one of them.
