i understand very well what he means, and if i need all that permission for a few scans and pics, and the others that i have, then my gallery along with every other fan site, are using "illegal" pics. without offense or trying to sound like an ass, i asked for hosting, not for a lecture on copyrights, i am very well aware of copyrights and all, thats why i have not put alot of images on my gallery, cause alot are copyrighted, and we didnt get permission and all, but simple pics like what the official site gives out, scans from mags and all, i dont really think they r such a big issue, on my gallery, ull find album scans, magazine scans, a few paparazzi scans, some events, etc...but those pics r found very widely on the net, so i dont think those r the problems, if i am completely wrong, then ok, then its wrong to have what i have, again im not trying to be rude, or sound like an ass, but having to hear this whole copyright stuff is a bit annoying, especially since my gallery has no more than 1000 miserable pics which can be found everywhere. i hope i made my point, as u guys have made urs, i dont really think we should start getting into more details and all. I mean all im trying to do is share some of my stuff, a little tribute if u must, i mean what you guys are saying is that i have to get permission for all pics, so it would be better not to put any, cause thats what u guys r making it sound like, and its very discouraging. so i would like this whole convo about copyrights to stop, since this thread is about hosting. thank you

Fine by me.

Alan, if you find a company that will take all the risk on itself, then surely, let's leave this up to just that.

In the meantime, you were already offered hosting (possibly) above:
Best of luck,

i am waiting for thier response, and i really wish u guys would stop acting so dramatic, there is no risk, unless i go around advertising the pics, screaming: copyrighted pics, im not that stupid, so please stop it with the copyrights, if it was up to you people, there would be no pics on any site

Well, respectfully, you don't have to tell us what to do. Especially when it is you asking for a free favor. People are here to help and advice you, as well as overlooking their own safe-being, they are not here to bury you with problems.

I hope that host accepts you. Let us know how that goes.

Best,

i understand that, i do, and i wasnt really telling u what to do, u know, it was more like: i understand already, no need to repeat, so sorry if i offended you, but the last post r all about copyrights, and ive had this site for about a year, so i know what to do and what not to do, if there is any other advice though, i would love to hear it, and i also hope that the host will accept me

Well, that's cool then, now that we understand each other.

I guess if there are any other hosts interested in this sponsorship request, feel free to contact AlanShkr.

Best,

yeah sorry if i came on a bit headstrong

and if there r any more hosts, feel free to contact me, thanks
