I'm wondering why more people don't use a hybrid of the two. The main reason is that you can have the best of both worlds. You can have the paid hosting that uses a domain name that you control, and you keep the traffic if your free host dies off. Have your front page reside on the paid host, and every other page come off the free host. Granted this would not work well for TGP listings, but for most LL and top lists it should work just fine. For the TGP stuff you could have a small gallery on the paid host, say 4 to 8 pics, and then additional links to larger galleries on the free hosts. That way you minimize your hosting charges, and can still offer a larger group of pic's and get your surfer to spend more time on your site. Just a thought, I'm sure that there are many more ways to utilize a hybrid of the two. Thanks
