Went back to that site just now and LOTS of the free hosted galleries that I had used now go nowhere. poof all gone.

Seems to me these smaller players couldn't "give away" all that FHG stuff like the bigger players can, or maybe they just failed, but I'm sure the FHG costs factored in somehow.

That's probably gonna take a toll on small to medium size sites that want to offer lots of FHGs.

Those with deeper pockets will survive I figure.

This isn't only hurting the little guys ... The big guys are feeling the pains already also. Sure they will survive but at what cost?
