Why would you?

Are you losing money? If so, have you been losing money for quite some time?
Can you see it turning a reasonable profit in the near future?

i don't see a reason to keep running them if you absoluely insist that they don't make any money. that is, unless they're a base for testing out new programs or a front for your paid hosting options.

Well, since we have all the facts, it should be pretty easy for us to make an informed decision on this...

Since you have to ask I would say no.

I dont really know about it but being able to change the links on all of those pages in a matter of seconds just has to be a good thing.

Well, since I have two domains hosted with you, I'd have to vote for staying in business. ;)

Thats a very constructive statement you idiot.....

Oscar you have been one of the good guys in the hosting for a long time. But if you just arent making any money at it, you need to quit. I'am sure you have been testing new things for awhile before bringing this public, so you already have a good idea of what is best.

Give your freehosts to us, so you don't have to screw your clients over


We can work out some sort of deal I am sure, and I get plenty of bandwidth doing nothing..

Well Your Wish may have been granted.

Due to some new idea I might not have to close them

I wouldn't be in the freehost business myself. It doesn't look very good long-term.

It wouldn't surprise me if this time next year, the top 10 biggest TGPs don't even allow galleries from freehosts.
