Change to upload policy

As you know, the biggest expense on NWR is bandwidth and storage.  So, as per many of your suggestions, I've limitted the free space on NWR to 15MB and 1GB of transfer.  

You can get more space by participating in different programs.  To get more space, log into your account, look for the 'space used/free' indicator near the bottom of your first page, and click on 'get more space' for a list.

The final option is to pay for it, which I have set at $2.50USD/mo. for INFINITE* space, and 1GB/mo. transfer.  This is much less than you would pay a standard host, but still covers the expense on our side.  You can pay for 6 or 12 mo. chunks.  If you pay for 12 mo., one month will be free.

If I can put enough money together, I will be upgrading the lines this month, which means faster uploads and downloads for all.  

So, all those people who said you are willing to pay for this service, hop to it!  And thanks from the bottom of my heart for all your kind words.

(* Within reason, obviously, I might frown on 10GB of mp3's from a single artist...)

Good move Waldo - I think you have a great site here and you deserve some cash to keep it going.  I hope this site gets going and these forums get full !!  I think you need to promote - promote - promote.  I started a thread on the acoutic guitar.com forum - maybe some folks will wander over here.

If we wish to participate in this do we 'About: Donate' for now?

If you log into your account, and go to 'Artists Administration', look near the bottom of the main menu for 'space used/space available' and there will be a 'get more space' link there.  Click on that, and then you can click on the 'pay for more space' button.  

It's all automatic from there!

Much too easy.  Thanks!
