The site was down tonight for a while as we out grew our hosting server and the site had to be moved over to a new larger server.
I've updated the site to 8 GB Storage, 40 GB Bandwidth whatever that means.

We all have our cross to bear, but some of us need more wood than others!

Yeah saw that last night.

Bandwidth is how much data/files is accessed by visitors to the site. Every time someone loads a page it transfers data from the server to the users PC. The more visitors and the more they browse, the quicker the allowance gets eaten up. A good way for forums is to get people to upload photos to some other file sharing site and then just link them in a post, this way it doesn't eat into your storage or bandwidth allowance.

The site will be going over to the new server this weekend so might be down for a few minutes while this is all sorted.
