Well, I’ve got the new URL and hosted site now; that gives me 400mb to play with. If it starts looking tight in a year, then we can work something out. Seeing as how all the pictures, PostNuke, WP, and an additional database I never purged had me barely over 200, I should be ok for several months. I’ll know more after I upload the pictures to the new server. But you probably want to do some .htaccess magic to keep others from deep-linking to any pics you put up.

Oh, and that reminds me, Herr Ubu. If you want, you can store the images on DrHeinous and link to them from there. I have (for such purposes) effectively unlimited storage. $110 gets you 300 gigs at Fry’s, easy…

Heh. Well, it does go down every once in a while. As Ubu said, DrHeinous.Com runs on a computer in my bedroom. I’ve been known to wander off leaving things in debug mode with breakpoints set (get hit enough that way and it will make the webserver a bit ill).

http://www.DrHeinous.Com will eventually be my sort of bloggy site. Overlord.DrHeinous.com is the web app for Starfire (demo/demopass should normally work). Overlord is under heavy development. Starfire.DrHeinous.Com mostly has the archives from mine/Ubu’s old ‘After the Fall’ Starfire campaign site.

Oh, and did I mention that the machine is on a wireless network? When I actually arrive in a production ready state I intend to hook up directly. Till then the machine stays where it’s easily accessed. It does slow down response times quite a bit, though, because of the increased latency.

Or, I could be lying, and have put a super-ultra-secret Anti-Den Beste filter on my website.

The good doctor runs his site from a system in his apartment, much like you do (well, not exactly, he has a non-static IP and some funky tricks to make it work…) It’s mainly a development site for an application he’s developing to play Starfire online. As such, he doesn’t worry about the functionality or content of the main URL. Try this one instead.

Galactic Conquest. It’s what’s for dinner.

Dr. Heinous, why doesn’t your site respond to me? (Do you hate me or something, sob?)

Indeed. Indeed it does. However, I have a bit of a problem. See update.

Fred Astaire and Anna Nicole Smith? The mind boggles.

I spotted this in a comment at Riuva, I think it was: http://bridgebunny.blogspot.com/

The good news is that it seems to be moribund.

And it’s “meido” rather than “medio”.
