A question about HLP
on: January 04, 2002, 02:53:00 am
 A question to Steak or Thunder or some other HLP moderator dude.

About how much space (disk) does the data for the HLP forums add up to?

I'm interested in creating a forum but don't know what kind of web hosting is ideal.

For the forums?  Depends on how many threads you'll have.  There's a lot of subdirectories so it's annoying to add up, but the software itself is pretty small.  Half a meg, zipped.

What are your choices?

Oh, and don't bother asking Setekh or Thunder about it.  I'm the one who does the forum stuff.

Oh cool; Thanks! (goes off finding the right host)

BTW: what BB software does HLP use? and will 200 megs work? (cheaper)

 I went to Infopop and found it a bit expensive. $199 isn't the average allowance of a teen

Yeah.  I was thinking 50 megs webspace, not 500.
