We're soon moving to a larger hosting package (1.5gb storage 15gb bandwith /month). There won't be any noticable changes to the site, but we'll obviously be able to host more files and give more room to our hosted sites.
This change means that we'll be changing the name-server, which will cause the site to go down for about 48 hours (maybe more, maybe less). This will probably happen in a day or two.
So, don't worry when the site goes down, because it will be back up very soon after. _________________

Why don't u just set the hosting computer to be your own! Then, you can have all the space u want! All you would need would be a DSN!
The only disadvantage would be that your computer would have to be on to see the website... |

Reasons:
- You need to install Apache
- You need to install PHP, and make apache work with it
- You need to install mySQL
- It will be very slow
- James' computer will run slowly, as well as the server running slowly
- He won't have cPanel
- His computer isn't on all the time. This is probably because of...something.
So, no, chav. _________________ aiii |

That estimate is to give me time to transfer all DB's and files. _________________

Why not just ask them to upgrade your package? _________________ aiii |

It's a long story, but I have another hosting package now, which is the larger one, aswell as this one. _________________
