You can get a 10mbps line for $400 per month in places. Invest it and protect your traffic. You're building it up. Don't risk losing it for anything. This way YOU and noone else BUT you controls your hard earned work.



edit-if the freehost goes under btw, they'll redirect all of your galleries and it's you that'll be blacklisted everywhere.

hmmm.... good point ... but i have the control over the domain ... so when shit happens ... it can be easily to change its nameserver.

thanks for the advice ... maybe two month from now i already subscribing to paid hosting.
