Oh, right; the video, and Virtual Private Server, thing. Have fun fundraising, experience has shown me that KP fans are poor.

If we didn't do the video, it wouldn't be as bad... Not on storage space, anyway... Except for wallaceb's 11 GB of caps.... On a plan like SDS's, we'd need to cut that down by at least half in order to get even close togetting everything on there...
I like the newest plan SDA's host is providing... 15 GB of storage with 400 GB of bandwidth... But with servers on a slower connection, I'm not sure how it'll hold up.... Well it is cheaper than SDS's plan by a buck... But still... Guess it'll come down to whether users want server connection speed over site functionality....

Too bad you can't charge users $1 a month for access to the high bandwidth sections...

Well, we could just nobody would like us very well... If we can get KPFW into enough good affiliate programs and get some decent traffic to boot, we may be able to get it.... *Must talk to Wayne and get him on here*

At the moment, I am cutting it down to about 9 gigs but that is still al lot! And if this is going to cost more to run, I can try helping out a little with money, we can try to fundraise, heck, there are over 1000 members on this board, and there are others, we can try raising money.

You could always sell out and host ads

I put up Google ads last night... Using my scripters account... And selling ad space wouldn't really work.... Therer's no traffic to speak of right now, and it's a site that contains copyrighted material, so..... hosting ads probably wouldn't be the best idea....
By the way wallaceb, the hosting plan SDS has is 10 GB of storage... so even 9 is going to be a lot if we end up going that way.....

We just won't be able to settle for that plan... We'll have to get a bigger one... But we need funding in order to do it...

well, for the better plan, $323.40 USD for 12 months... Hav eto go for the 12 months to get the discounted rate. Otherwise it's $30/month instead of $27...
For the other plans...
SDS's: $166.80 for two years to get the discount... $95.40 for one year
SDA's: $83.40/yr

i am beginning to debat about hosting my own server just for the caps, so we can keep them all and you can link to it or something
how much space does SDA give you for the $83 per year?

That's 15 GB with 400 GB...
And is quite a bit slower with connection speed.. so it'd take longer for people to upload/download stuff that's very big...
