Hi Tony, Hope some of the following links are of some help. Since your needs are a bit uncommon (much space but not too much bandwidth), I'd recommend looking into "request a quote" links. Good luck, Andrew http://4serendipity.com <tip type="searching for a web host"> Here are some web host-related links: *General web hosting sites* The web Host Industry review http://www.thewhir.com/ Host Review http://www.hostreview.com/ HostIndex http://hostindex.com/ Web Hosting Village http://www.webhostingvillage.com/ Web Host Directory http://www.webhostdir.com/ Host Search http://www.hostsearch.com/ TopHosts http://www.tophosts.com/ Web Hosts Online http://www.webhostsonline.com/ *Web Hosting forums* http://www.webhostingtalk.com/ The Web Hosting and Domain Names forum at: http://www.sitepointforums.com/ *Sites were you can request quotes for specific hosting needs* The Whir's Hotest Hosts: http://hottesthosts.com/rfp/ TopHosts Hostmatch http://www.tophosts.com/hostmatch/ </tip> TP> The site (www.acmp.com.au) belongs to the professional photographers TP> association in Australia is shortly to be expanded to contain a large TP> archive of photographs (approximately 400-500 megs).
