Bah ! Forget about those free services .. I have heard about dozends accounts terminated for .. ah, well, without real reason.

Sometimes some A*** claims you have stolen his property, and they shut down your site without further notice, sometimes they shut it down because it generates more traffic than a 'free site' should ... sometimes their hardware crashes and they 'accidently' can't backup some site hosted for free.

I would recommend that you spend some $2..5 a month and get yourself a 'real site' with own domain etc.

It helps, really - they won't kill such a site without good reason because they would have some lawyers going after them if they do

A.

PS: Last case I heard of was a 'Steel Panthers World@War' fansite on Trypod, so maybe you should want to stay away from them, too.
