Server space required

[Grumpytoo]

The recommended 200MB of server space required.
Is that for the initial install and running a forum there after or would a forum with some posts and pictures exceed that?

Ultimately as your forum grows you may need more space. How soon will depend on what you do with it. A photography site with many large photos is likely to need more space more quickly.

Always buy the most space you can afford.

For most sites, 200 MB would support the forum for 6-12 months. Sites with large photos, 200 MB might be gone in a day. It is just a starting point but we should probably update it.

The good thing is that hosting providers usually sell hosting in the Gigabytes range so you're usually covered.

Thanks Mark & Wayne.
