Check out www.blackseven.com -- I host with them and haven't had any problems. Great prices, great support.
SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
If you can't afford to pay for a host, why not use some of the free hosts offered by the different AVS out there. Some sponsors are even offering free bannerless hosting too as long as you promote their sites. Anyway, it is all covered in the above link.
The Rackshack is unlimited for 1/3 the price. Wondering if there are any caveats wiith it.
The rack shack thing is capped at 10 mbps.On Linux install,with 512 ram.Not really built for using the whole 10 mbps
If you know nothing about tweaking these.
Ours is on a 100 mbps port, On our tuned boxes wich can do 20 mbps easily.
And we manage the boxes. BIg difference.

I'm not in any way slagging Phatservers...I have two accounts there and so far excellent. I guess it's pretty easy to compare apples and oranges here.
I am searching for low low cost gallery / tgp hosting scenarios. I would think the chances of me using the 10mbps in full continuously is pretty slim, except for maybe a day or two here or there. At full speed if it even allowed 9KB per second it still represents practically unlimited (by my standards anyways) traffic
at a known fixed cost. The traffic is not exactly "Mission critical" so if it breaks at that price I wouldn't cry. If anyone can do this sort of thing in the $450 USD range let me know.

I was just answering your question..you wanted to know the diference between the 2..and it is about 5000 gigs of transfer and hours of admin time wich you need to do on the rackshack box.
I can offer you that $450 deal if we are not managing it (rackshack style..we will only reboot for you and charge hourly rate if we need to fix anything you break) and your on a cheapo box with 512 ram and stock linux install

We have actually been doing this so long that we have sites on T1's that we contract for and physically host. These are from back when having a T1 was a big thing. Those contracts are up next month and we are not renewing as they are considerably more expensive than any hosting option I have seen here.
In contrast to some of the equipment we have owned since 94 that is on a 1.54 mb T1, a Cogent 10 mbps 512kb Dell linux box is a freekin major step up. All we need to do is untar our current installation onto a new box and away we go...so I guess that is why the Rackshack stuff caught my eye. All we need is a remote reboot ability.
If you guys have anything that is even ballpark close we will take it, our experiences have been great with you so far. I'll drop you an email.
