Your efforts are appreciated. We can only pray that one day South Africans can enjoy cost structures which will allow for broad and open minded individuals like yourselves to continue your good work.

Thank you for now and God bless.

I see that Hetzner have dropped their hosting prices today… http://mybroadband.co.za/news/Telecoms/9009.html
Hopefully the other hosting providers will soon follow suit!

Our UNISA study group found this site very useful for sharing resources (legal), course notes and assignments question research etc. I found this site very user friendly!

Perhaps consider offering subscriptions per, for example, 5 GB of space – rather than a set amount per month which might make the fees out of reach for some people. Our group are only using 10% of space available to us.

For groups such as ourselves, an annual/bi-annual fee might be better – we could club together and then pay a once-off fee for the duration of the acadamic year.

Yes, I agree, local file sharing is like skeletons in South Africa, I always used Photobucket, but internet user’s that only use local bandwidth can’t see my images. But when I found Quickshare I was happy and my friends could see my images. I’ll be happy to pay for local services.

Damn, This is SAD..

I agree with you Di @ Legacy4Life.
Also if you make size smaller like 5mb and 50mb space per user with a limit traffic allowance per file then its still worth it.

I will pay also R20 per month to be a user.

P.S. You have over 2600 users. Even if just half donated R10 a month – that should take care of your problems

This is a real shame. Have you tried setting up a donation button that people who use the site regularly can maybe help?? I know that we cannot recieve money via Paypal in SA but perhaps use something like Moneybookers.

I was wondering when this day would come. Its really sad to see another local site go down (image hosting ones go down all the time). Its really understandable though.

I’m sure you guys have tried getting sponsorship but I just cant see you surviving without it.
