Well, I purchased hosting from microswift.com, we get:

Disk Storage - 4,000 MB
Monthly Transfer (Bandwidth) - 50,000 MB
E-Mail Accounts - 400

WOO! Whenever we outgrow our bandwidth (really I have no idea how much we might be using... I think 50k MB is a lot to begin with) we can upgrade the package. Really, its a great hosting service. ^^

I also just bought the IPB license, and its going to take probably until sometime tomorrow (Saturday) for that to be up... and then we have to configure it with the hosting service, which, will in all likelyhood, go smoothly, or very very slowlly (Ive never done this before, but it will get done.)

(I hate to say this, but) Again, I'd appreciate any help as far as donations go, the IPB license was $150 - so far we've had $40 donated. We are anticipating some revenue from an ad which we will place on the new site, and we really aren't sure yet how much that will net - it all depends on how many people click it, how many impressions we get, etc. I'm very grateful for any donations we get, no matter the amount. ^^ Thanks! (Of course, any revenue we make & donations would go directly to paying the remaining "deficit" on the IPB and hosting, and any extra will go straight towards site improvements & giveaway contests.)

Three times is a charm. However if you do it wrong the third time, you're a retard.

Its a possibility. I still havent gotten anything back from IPB saying they verified the purchase, so we're really just waiting for that, then we have to figure out how to configure it.

Yeah- our webhost has been on good terms with this forum for a good while before now, and he has his own site with an IPB forum, so hopefully he can provide any assistance we may need.
