They seem to be "temporarily offline" LOL

http://www.freepixhosting.com

Unless it is just Time Warner Houston that can't route to them... *shrug*

Well consider that Tuan Le offers it as a free service ;) we have to allow him to take it down when needed ;)

That's right - he does run it, and at the last Vette get together here in Houston (he runs an orange 408ci coupe) he mentioned something about Freepix's future.

which is probably for the best since the picture is so fuckin HUGE.

as for freepixhosting, i didn't know it was run by someone here at jw, that's probably what that thread was all about some months ago. i use it to host certain slightly unimportant files, don't wanna put up anything too important cuz freepixhosting is unreliable as hell, as it would be with so many users.

These ones? Feel free to post them wherever you want. It doesn't allow remote linking though. So you can only post the urls

People hosting "megawatts" worth of images for use on their own websites.

Basically letting FreePixHosting pick up th tab for their bandwidth.

Not the service he intended it to be - but ask Jabba - if you give people an inch, they will take a mile... :D
