Moving out!

We've wibbled, and we've decided: The Fire and Ice Archive is going to move to its own hosting package, because we've grown faster than anticipated and it's not fair to the other people on grey-space for us to suck up all the bandwidth. To that end, I'm going to be all shameless and ask anyone who feels like it to donate to the "Buy us server space" fund. If you want to use paypal, send it to mynuet@yahoo.com. There'd be a nifty button here, but I can't get it work. :P

If you would prefer to send a check or money order, contact me for my address. This is all voluntary on your part, however much or little you want to give. Once we have enough for the initial year I'll let y'all know and then keep records as to who paid what so that we can save up for next year and on into the future. We're still debating what hosting company to use, although we think that Globat seems likely. If we go with Globat, we might be able to do something like give pop3 accounts to people who donate over a certain amount.

I would recommend using http://www.aggressivehosting.net for your server space. You can pay monthly or yearly and the cheapest package is 200 MB space with 5 GB of bandwith a month for only $5/mo or $50/yr. There is also no set up fees. I use them to host my fanfiction archives (http://smfanfiction.net - quite large archives that are also run by the efiction script) as well as all of my other websites (which get A TON of high bandwidth traffic especially PrincessSerenity.net) I've never had any problems with them, and they are completely affordable and give you a lot of bang for your buck. I hope this helps! Feel free to email me at sailormoon@earthlink.net if you need more info or help or whatever. ^_^
