I tried signing up for this host and so far they seem ok. I have no idea what their TOS are since that page is so short! It doesn't say anything about file size limits or whether u can have multiple accounts. So far it's been pretty speedy for me. I FTPed in and I was only user #4 out of the allowable 500 users. Maybe I got in at a good time? My page also loads pretty quick. I want to use it for image galleries, so the biggest pic would probably be about 1mb.

I've been wondering about them too. 100MB and domain hosting ain't bad. The forever broken forum and peculiar FAQ have kept me away though.
Can you tell me what kind of ads they have? I take they don't support things like CGI, SSI or PHP?

They have banners on the top of each page. They don't mention PHP or SSI but they do say that they'll have CGI setup in July.

I forgot to mention, that if you enter <nobanner> tag in each html file, the banner is gone, but instead a pop-up comes up.

for a demo, see http://ebooks.0catch.com/

1MB file size limit, no adult, warez sites. The TOS is not that long.

So have you been there long ebird? I want to know if it's reliable or if today's just lucky.

I wish the banners weren't so animated...oh well. Um my page is at http://clearjade.0catch.com
Due to the cheesy banner, I'll only use this to host the actual gallery pages and images. I'm also going to add verdana to the style sheet to change the default font.

Yeah, I uploaded a blank index page, so whatever you see there are the ads they put on the html pages.

I havent used 0catch, but I would suggest them. It is run by someone who use to do free webhosting then sold it. He had over 500,000 members. He knows what he is doing and I belive that he will give a excelent service.
