I'm really a bit miffed with our website right now. When I try to upload a
file (any file), I'm told "553 Disk full - please upload later).

This irks me greatly. We have 50MB of space there, and I'm only using less
than 4MB of it. I do not like being told the disk is full.

Right now that means that all of the Races and Places banner pages (I had
separated them by category) are gone. Why? Because I thought maybe if I
removed the original files, it would free up space for uploading the edited
files. No, still a Disk full message. Don't worry, I still have copies of
the files to upload. I just can't upload them right now. I'm not sure how
long those pages will be down. I can't even put up an announcement warning
those pages are down. I can't even replace the big Theoden banner recently
submitted with one I've shrunk, which means it's file size would be smaller.

Really annoyed here. I'd hate to have to move the site for all the headache
it would be. Look at how many places were are affililated with or linked
by. We'd have to let everyone there know or at least put up a "We have
moved" sign at our present location taking them to the new place.

It would be hassle. But then so is being told the disk is full and try
again.

Grrrrr..

I think that anyone who coordinates any kind of awards activity
should be nominated for sainthood. If I had any knowledge beyond
rudimentary about websites and webhosting, I would help you, but I am
woefully ignorant. But I feel your pain!!

Thanks. I needed that. I was feeling better, as the site was accepting my
files, but then when I tried to look at them, I got error massage pages!
GRRRRRR!!!

Well, for my part, it's just basic HTML. I don't know the fancy stuff. Oh,
I throw in a little mail merge here and there and tables are wonderful, but
other than that, no javascript or java or flash or other fancy mumbo jumbo.
So it's not hard.
