OT, web hosting for personal pages?

Open to suggestions. I've been using LunarPages for quite a long while now and have been happy with them. I use their starter hosting for my handyman website and a regular hosting for my web design site. Use my link and you get the same great deal plus I get a bump. I'll help you with your site if you like. http://www.lunarpages.com/id/diversifycom Only $3.95/mo but you have to buy a 2 year contract. This has always been worth it to me. $95 for two years of hosting? Some places want that much for only 3 _months_. -- Live Simply. Speak Kindly. Care Deeply. Love Generously. -- anon |

Certainly going to check that out, sounds like a killer price.
I have no problem with contracts. I registered a domain, janders dot info to get a freebie email. Paid up for 10 years, then found many of the web forums I'm in won't accept that email. Crap... Big part of registering a domain was to get a long term email account I can start to transition to here before I move. (while I do have a Gmail account and it can be converted to POP3, I don't trust Google to not be sniffing emails...) Thanks!! Jon |

Yeah, Picassa would be hard to beat for blog pics and stuff. But for photography, I want more control over appearance, more like a professional online photo gallery, ala Smugmug or similar. (not that I'm a professional by any means, I just want to be able to create a nice looking gallery...) Jon |

Virtually every thing else is truly unlimited. Few exceptions are things most folks are unlikely to encounter. 1,000 emails per hour for example. You will never hit that but a mailing list with 100 members and 10 posts per one hour will hit... Have been with them for years and have never had a problem not of my own doing:-O -- William |

Unless you want a less-than satisfactory layout peppered with ads and
pop-ups from a "free" host, look into a local ISP that will sell you a web host service with X MB (your requirement). Usually not too expensive, and you can manage it all you want. Here's mine, run on local Seanet.com: http://www.seanet.com/~jasonrnorth/ JR Dweller in the cellar On Sun, 06 Nov 2011 08:43:16 -0800, Jon Anderson wrote: I know a number of folks here have personal web pages detailing projects and interests.

computers can't read the photo format used on picasa.

That's certainly what I don't want. I have a business site a friend hosts on his server. He'd probably let me host my personal site too, but whereas my business site is very low impact on traffic and disk space, I plan to have a fair bit of stuff on the personal site. I've heard from a few folks down under that have AU hosted web sites, hosting isn't exactly cheap, though they have .au registered domains and they are business sites. I don't really care where mine is hosted so long as it's easy to access and modify like my business site, inexpensive, and reliable. Jon |

Gunner - I've tried to look at something you had on picasa with no luck.
This was from a Windows 2000 system with microsoft's Internet Explorer. If you'd mention the picasa address of a photo or two, I'll look again to verify my memory.

Gunner - I tried the two address you mentioned. Both showed what appears
to be your "front page" on picasaweb. I clicked the tag for, roughly, "gunner's pictures" and after two & half minutes got "all done, some errors occurred". No pictures, though. This was via a telephone modem working at 24k baud, which accounts for the slow speed.
