WTF is up with this.

Hey guys, sup.

Anyways, How come all of my hosted photo's with photobucket say bandwidth exceeded? I even deleted a CRAP load to. Most pictures don't work but some still do, WTF is up with that?

Weird. Photobucket blows. When did your first notice your bandwidth limit was exceeded? Shouldn't it renew every month? Having your avatar hosted at Photobucket definitely isn't helping your bandwidth. Each time a page is loaded with at least one post from you, it's pulling that image size from your Photobucket bandwidth. Host your avatar elsewhere and you might have more luck.

Every time someone's computer has to download your avatar (so it can be cached), you draw some bandwidth from Photobucket. If too many people download your picture, then it will do that.

Thanks guys, I used tinypic to host my avatar.

I think I figured out why I went over the bandwidth limit, becuase I am on a site called musiciansforum.com and I wrote 2 lessons in the guitar forum with over 10 pictures in each lesson, and there are more than 100,000 members there. So I think too many people viewed my lessons.

That would do it. It's amazing how quick a small image adds up to some mega bandwidth. You should be good now.
