Exceeded 4GB Monthly limit

kevin.coppalotti

I had a mesage on my site saying I had exceeded the monthly limit of 4gb on my smugmug site, one of my galleries had 68,000 hits, has this happened to anyone else??

Yes. Shortly after establishing a gallery on smugmug, I watched the statistics on that gallery climb by the minute (about 5 hits per second).

I ended up deleting the gallery and the hits just kept on coming!

Notified tech support (excellent) and they handled the matter. I never did find out the problem, just that it got fixed.

Thanks Glasdriver, hopefully my problem will be sorted out tonight in monthly maintenance

Kevin, when we come back online after this maintenance, I'll have a look. Not to worry.

Kevin,

I reset your bandwidth, giving you an extra 3gb for the month. If you turn originals OFF you'll use less bandwidth. Write back with any more questions

Are you hosting any auctions, or posting in lots of forums or anything unusual?

Thanks Andy, yes I have been posting on DP review and Fred Miranda, mostly wildlife, and that was the Gallery that hit the data limit. I guess I will have to cut back a bit.

NONON don't cut back - post away - but post your -Ls not your -Os

or, post one or two pics inline and then give folks a link to your galleries.
