    When is it time to delete files?

    Quick question (i know i should have posted this in Q & A, but its dead in there)

    As a gallery builders I upload 16 pics, 16 thumbs, 1 banner and about 40 html flies daily. All this starts to add up, one can run out of space in no time. When is it ok to delete some galleries, how long should one wait. Im sure TGP's dont keep your galleries for ever. I was thinking about 3-4 months , is that ok?

    Your 2 cents please




    thx

    Can't you just tell by your traffic stats when the pictures stop being accessed?

            Space is dirt cheap man, and you really aren't adding that much. Just leave your galleries online...

                deleting galleries is like the stupidest mistake a webmaster can make all the work for nothing, and you'd be blacklisted

                ,,, over time it can be spidered by SE's and later down the road you might wanna build up a collection and make another sites,,, ie,, i still grab like 3 galleries i made and make a FREE and AVS site out of them,,, you need to learn how to recycle your work

                i must have over 1 million pages floating out there on the internet,,, only bad thing is if a sponser goes away its to damn hard for me to change them

                www.cleangalleries.net is site i made to collect all the galleries i made

                    Gotcha, never. Good point you made about the SE's spidering your galleries.

                    Thx again guys
                    Ray

                    ps. Dawgy, Im not running out of space, not even close. i was just wondering if there was a rule of thumb (no pun intended).

                        That's what I thought he was talking about when I read the subject of this thread. When to delete those certain "files"?

                        Ask Enron.
