I know it's the offseason, so I thought I'd roll out some new features at PantherU to keep you coming back to the website. Here's our first in a weekly trivia series: www.pantheru.com/page/sweet-16-triviaYou'll be able to access them any time, we'll just roll out a new one every week. Also, some of you internet savvy folks might have heard that Ning, the social network site that hosts PantherU, will be allowing only paid subscribers beginning in July. As I'm a poor college student (and only a couple months from being a poor college graduate), I'd prefer not to pay Ning for their service. Frankly, I've had some difficulties with their system and I don't think I want to pay for substandard work. Currently, I'm in the process of finding another free or cheap network that I can host PantherU. The early front-runner is Spruz, but I'm willing to I'm migrating all of my data on PantherU to my own computer, just in case Ning gets pissy with me and cuts me off early (I've been less than cordial with some of their admins, who are surprisingly short and volatile). If you have any suggestions on how to move forward with PantherU, write them on here. I appreciate any and all feedback.

I will no longer be a student in September...I'm looking for a place I can host long term.

How large is the site?
Who is your ISP? Some ISPs offer free web hosting.

My ISP is Time Warner...my site isn't very large because I host my videos at Youtube, pictures at Flickr (or will once I move), etc.
My problem is that I'm not a good web designer anymore...it's odd to say this, but I used to be pretty great with HTML when I was 13-15. I got into high school, got into football and video games...that was that.

Time Warner gives you 10MBs of free web space, with an option to expand.

What can I really do with 10 megabytes?
I think I've found my host: FanPlay.com

10 mbs can get you very far if you're not hosting any pictures or videos. HTML files are tiny, could be less than 10Kb each. They are really only text files. That could leave room for 1000 different pages minus what ever else you've got going on.
