We Have Reached Another Milestone
Jan 15^th, 2009 at 3:01pm

Well, it's time to buy some more server space and bandwidth. This is great news because it means that we are growing.

We have outgrown our present hosting account in storage space and some months nearing bandwidth limits. Of course the larger server capacity means a little more cost but it has been my goal since I started all this that we would bust out of that package and need to buy more.

Great milestone to kick off 2009. Thanks everyone for using the site it and making this possible.

Keep up the good work....

Well, server space is little affected by mere text, so I think if your looking for someone to ~~blame~~ thank, it would be Mick since he posts so many .psdata files

Have you thought of starting a pico file data base to upload/download from? Make it for those who buy your package to offset the costs.

Since your policy is, once your in your in, I would think no one would object to giving it to you (and enhancing your business).

My main objection to BBs direction for iatn was based on a broken promise and therefore, a type of theft. Its a strained argument, but I think you know what I mean.

I am not marketing any service or product.
Everyone happy now?

Jim,

Yup, some of it is Mick's fault but we have a lot of prolific contributors so he shares the blame Wink

Seriously though, I never want to discourage this process. It's here for you all to use and I WANT you to use it.

Basically that is what these forums can be used for. Data files mean so much more when in the context of a discussion rather than just out there. Now that the search functions are working again, it makes it possible to find stuff. Of course, I could always add another board or something...someplace to post known good captures of interest perhaps? Or.....

Yeah, that is the intent. But I have found that I have had to make it up as I went along too. Years ago, I never anticipated that our Picogroup members would go to work for other Pico vendors. Those guys get removed. So also do some who remove their support from us by upgrading with another supplier.

We made the decision that we would direct our resources back to those who provided them. That would be our customers. That way we can direct our growth to benefit all those who helped make it possible. We owe it to them. Seems only fair to me. Wink

Joe,

Thanks. Glad to hear that. There were points where I was regretting the forums upgrade but it was too late...had to press on. Worked out in the end I think.
