Sorry, but I feel I should point out...
No matter what link you have to your ISP and how profee is my host, if
your big brother won't talk directly to mine your questions and my
answers may end up circling the globe twice by means of clogged wires,
so there may be issues even if your ISP and my host use
faster-than-wombat drives.
On old days of radiotalk, there was a mindset that would look for the
faintest and most obscure contact, or for those cases of extraordinary
access to places by means of usually impossible frequencies. I still
suffer from that mindset now and then, and wait a little longer just
because I hope (not always get) it's content is worth the wait.
Building an audience is part of a human drive - comunication. Some even
learn foreign, strange languages to try a longer reach. Not me, I'm
lazy... But any effort made to reach out is first that and I would still
take the effort into consideration. Of course there is also the content.
I really respect your decision and your ideas (even while I disagree).
There were lots of galleries I just didn't visit out of little time or
being sad or angry, and I will be doing that again every time my time is
limited - or I get in a foul enough mood. But on and everyday basis, I
wait sometime. Hardly I get disappointed.

The main reason I subscribe, not that I want to disparage the wit &
witticisms, nor indeed the hardware lore, is those every-so-often
things, you know, with pixels in them. It's like they used to say
about Playboy mag: I just read it for the pictures.
But: I'm impatient. So whatever your hosting setup is, if I click on
the PESO link and the screen on my browser doesn't have a picture on
it Pretty Damn Quick, I'm not waiting. For those of you have personal
audiences who'll wait for your crippled-wombat-driven server because
they're your Mom or boyfriend or grad student or whatever, that's
fine, but if you're trying to build an audience (and I acknowledge
that many aren't, and that's fine), you just gotta have a snappy
server. My time is my most precious commodity.
Good hosting is pretty cheap these days. -T
