Shop around... you would be supprised what you can get if you are a non-profit organisation.

While i cannot name names (as its against forum rules under advertising) a fair few hosts do offer either free or heavily reduced hosting fees for non-profits. on the condition that on your website there is acknoloedgement of the hosts and / or a banner add to them.

worth a try.. you dont get if you dont ask!!

while i alway recomend you avoid shared hosting.. the cost of hosting these days means you can get a Virtual Private Server for about £100-£150 per year in the UK

changing hosts, really is the only fix for this

Seems she didn't either know that it wouldn't fly, or it didn't sink in, or she just needed a sale. When I told her the finished site would have over 700,000 fairly small image files, she said that was not a problem. Yeah, right, not for her anyway!
