Anyone use Streamline hosting?

Unlimited MB space and bandwidth - sounds too good to be true, just wondering if it's a big con..

[Nick Leeson]

There's too many hosts around now. Do you need unlimited space? Are you building an infinite website that will attract an unlimited amount of visitors instantly?

Such hosts are only any good if you don't expect your site to grow and be popular.

They'll be on your case if your site uses up a lot of the server's CPU on its own, and probably have a clause in there about reasonable use.

It's not a bad way of starting out, but you need to find out what they do if your site does get popular. Some hosts will just block your site and that's the end of it, others will let you put up a page explaining the problems until you've found another host, others might even let you keep the site going for a short time - but on the understanding you clear off quickly.

Thanks - basically I need the space for storing my images for my ebay business - with uk2net and have nearly used all my 2.5 gb space so was looking around. Will keep looking..

Some of them actually forbid you using their servers for the storage of images other than the images needed for the actual website.

Have you looked at Picasa - free photo editing and photo management software from - not sure on their rules though.
