Hey everybody i just setup the account and well i like this service

I have a few questions:

1. I know i am not allowed to HOST a chat program but can i embed it in my page while it uses the bandwidth of any website. It doesnt use my bandwidth but i just embed it

2. I am not allowed to upload and host images as the webmaster( i wont allow users to upload images, but even as the webmaster i cant)?
Like for example an image for my website heading and stuff like that.. Am i not allowed to do that kind of stuff?

3. Am I allowed to host forums using smf phpBB etc?

4. When i have a forum are users allowed to attach uploads?

5. Are url redirections like co.cc or .tk allowed to be put on my website?
(e.g. mrtutorial.co.cc redirects to mrtutorial.110mb.com)
 
Could some1 give me a tos version in simple easy letters.. I dont know phising but I wont copy other peoples websites..

1. Yes, embedded/iframed chat from outside the 110mb is OK.
2. You can host the images on your 110mb account if that images are integral part of your website. You can not use your account just to store the images, but if you are using them on your website - you can.
3. Yes, you can host any kind of forum scripts. Remember that some forum scripts are using MySQL - it is paid upgrade on 110mb. But there are plenty forum scripts that are using SQLite which is free here.
4. Yes, your forum visitors can upload avatars and attachements. Uploading avatars and attachements trough integrated uploaders inside of forum/cms scripts is the only exception for the rule, that your visitors can not upload anything.
5. Yes, you can use redirections like that, and even more, you can point your own domain to your 110mb account.

1) Yes. As long as it isn't hosted here, this should be fine.

2) You can upload images for use as content on your site. You cannot have a script like imageshack for other users to upload images to your site, using it to host the images for others.

3)Yes. If you use a MySQL database, you must get the MySQL upgrade, which is $9.95 or 350 USEFUL posts to this forum.

4)Yes. The upload script in forums is secure and is totally allowed.

5)Yes. You can have any domain you want, but there are restrictions on bandwidth from your extra domain. I suggest using co.cc's free domain and not use it as a framed re-direct, but as an actual solid domain. I can help you set this up if needed.



TOS Readers Digest condensed version:

You understand no phising.

No scripts that use your site to browse the internet, such as PHProxy. (Proxies are sites that you can go to to visit blocked sites, by using the internet connection of the server rather than your own.)

You can't have a site here, and use an Iframe to put it on another site located on another hosting company. However, the use of Iframes in your site that is hosted here on 110mb is fine, such as for using an Iframe to put a chat onto your site.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doorway_page This is a description of "Doorway pages". Don't do them.

Torrents are a form of P2P filesharing often used for illegal purposes. Trackers tell torrent clients where the files are. They are not allowed as they are resource intensive scripts.

Again, no using your site like Imageshack or Megaupload. Not allowed.

Radio blogs are not allowed. This is due to the same as the above post. 110mb can't be used as a filehost. HOWEVER: You ARE allowed to host files on an external filehost and link to them on your site.

The MySQL restriction is because it causes the disk to constiantly read and write, making the heads move alot. This causes the drive to die alot faster than it normally would, and is also resource intensive. Search spiders are not allowed.

Again, IRC chats aren't allowed to be hosted here, nor are IRC Bots like Eggdrop bots. You CAN use an Iframe to put one hosted somewhere else on your page though.

You cannot have your own upload script on your site. The one inside of a forum is the only one allowed.

You are allowed to register up to 5 free accounts on 110mb. This limit is lifted so long as you have at least 1 paid upgrade on each account.

You can't have a beer or cigarette or illegal drug fansite. Nothing promoting these things are allowed.

You can't use your site like spamyourfriends.com. This is resource intensive and in some places it is illegal. Best to just not do it.

You can't host Copyrighted material on your site without permission. This includes images, music, or written documents. Music, artwork, or writings of your own production are totally ok.

Porn involving persons under the age of 18 is not allowed as it is illegal in most places. Also, the newer servers are in the United States, and child porn is illegal there. Since the server is there, you have to follow the laws where the server is located.

Have a name that makes sense for your subdomain. Don't use aaklghasklghaskjjni as a username. It will be deleted.

You have 15 days from the point of account creation to delete the default "Account Created" page and publish your site.



Hopefully this helps you out some. If you have more questions, please ask.

Apparently there is a version of SMF that supports sqlite - see http://help.110mb.com/infusions/articles/readarticle.php?article_id=50

And sqlite is available here FREE!!

You are allowed to stream YouTube videos (using the YouTube embed codes).  No, piracy, crack/hacks are not allowed here.  And not many know when the registration will re-open, it's all up to the admins and what the servers can handle.

I know you were only kidding, but absolutely NOT about the paid web host thing. (just for future reference for anyone else).  I would prefer Dreamweaver, I use it and love it.  But, I'm not sure about the drop down menus.  That's not my site.  You can use Dreamweaver and Fireworks in combination to make drop down menus.

Hmm ty for the link and the fast replies... I regret my hosting account closure  cry  undecided

But  now I feel(THE FOLLWING CONTENT IS IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER)(if you dont know what that means it is from beginning to end)

1. cry 2. embarassed 3. sad 4. undecided  5.   shocked 6. smiley 7. 3 option for #7 a. grin b.  smiley or C.  afro
 

BTW one more question(looks like I never stop questioning do I?)

How much bandwidth do you think a smf forum would take with 3000 visitors per month (100 visits per day) with attachments disabled. I am talking about smf forum... Also Disk Space...(I know 110MB provides me more than enough for all of this but since i never hosted a forum i want to fill my curiosity out..)

Not alot. I've never used all my bandwidth and I have decent traffic flow to my site. Also, I suggest Dreamweaver CS3 for editing. Here's how to set it up, including for use with WAMP or XAAMP.

Keep in mind, my main site has my forum on it, plus a forum I am running for someone else while I set up their site here on 110mb. Their forum alone is very active. I think I've used MAYBE 2% of my bandwidth at most? Maybe 3?

300GB of bandwidth is huge.  You will never use it.  Running a very active forum will not make a dent in this.

You can have whatever you want as long as it meets the TOS. In fact, it would be a good idea to put something up as a replacement for the default index page, as the TOS says:

Quote
Not having a homepage in your root folder-- or still having original 'Account Created' page 15+ days of your signup date.

Also includes not having a proper website while having uploaded tons of files to your account, hence using your account mainly for file storage, which is not allowed.

hmm kay thanks...

One Last Question( I know I am so questiony(is that even a term?) but I can't help it since I like to follow the rule =D)

Background:
E.G. I have a website up and running and it all is going good...All the links work and stuff and its website...


My question is that my website all good and running but could i use 110mb for a file storage? Like I have an application named MrWord and well it has a update function in it. When the user presses the update button it goes to www.mrtutorial.110mb/files/MrWordLatest.exe and downloads the .exe...And people could run that to update MrWord..

Am I allowed to that with 110mb's great hosting services?

READ THE TOS !!!

Quote
Using your account mainly for file storage of images, videos or music.

110mb is a text content provider. It's not a place to mainly backup/store your files. Because uploading/download large files needs the hard drive head to move a lot. Hence reducing their life span, and decreasing I/O performance for everyone. For media/file storage see this file hosting directory.

If that is what you intend to do, then no.
