Free hosting for GfxDiary members!

Hello all,

GfxDiary is offering three of its members FREE HOSTING in conjunction with Plexi Hosting. The members will receive upto six months professional quality hosting absolutely free of charge. Plexi Hosting would like to raise its profile within the GfxDiary community and thus, all we require from you is to provide feedback on the service you are receiving.

Of course we are also happy to hear your plans on what you will be using this web space for and as always, showcase any work you've created.

More details regarding the space and specification will be posted shortly...

Let me know who is interested :arrow:

Hi! (my first post! :D)

Yeah I would be glad to taking part in this great offer :D

Thank you, BioAlien, I am happy to be here and to help facilitate this offer.

I would like to extend my thanks in advance to those three members that participate, as this does require some participation (don't worry it won't hurt so much :) ).

Basically, three members who would like to participate and who agree to friendly terms (as well as the Plexi Hosting TOS, of course) will be given free hosting to do with as they please as long as they do actively use it, that use falls within the Plexi Hosting TOS, and that they provide regular feedback about the service.

The plan I'd like to offer is a plan with 200MB space, 2GB bandwidth, 4 MySQL databases, 10 subdomains allowed, any number of email and ftp aliases, with cPanel control panel (default skin is xController but that can be changed if need be), Fantastico, and all the normal fixins (can check features at http://www.plexihosting.com/planinfo.html )

About the feedback: There will be some guidelines, but they will mostly deal with when and how frequently you provide it. If BioALIEN feels that there should be specific services' quality to be mentioned, I welcome the suggestions. However, I'd like to keep my requests for feedback more open-ended so it is free and clear of any direction/bias from Plexi Hosting. I'd like to have feedback on the following "schedule" once accepted:

1. Initial setup and first week getting your site working with the hosting
2. A "monthly checkin" with any feedback you have about whatever aspects of your hosting account are important to you
3. A total overall review/feedback after the term of free hosting is complete

Thank you in advance for considering this offer,

Peter

I'd like to take this offer up. You can view the sites I have created below:

http://www.nostringscomic.com
http://www.planetnintendo.com/secretofmana

I am also working on a new site which is temporarily at the website below:

http://www.planetnintendo.com/secretofmana/saksite/index2.htm

Me and my friend Emily are working on a brand new website for my brother's online portfolio and this sounds like a perfect oppertunity!

Looks like two people interested so far. Keep the requests coming! I'd definitely like the hosting to be used so you can provide good feedback, so a request like Nick's contains the sort of information I am looking for.

Thank you for the requests so far. I truly hope this can be of some value to the GfxDiary community.

Also - nice work, Nick!

Man, this couldn't have happened at a better time. My and a friend have been trying to find a good, affordable host for our site Dark Geekus Designs for ages, with no luck. You can see the design in the gallery at http://www.gfxdiary.com/album_showpage.php?pic_id=48

Also in my DeviantArt Page and my Shadowness Page.

Peter, I've had a few people reminding me about this hosting offer.

You have the 3 members (above) interested in taking part, please contact them and provide information on how they can sign up to obtail their FREE hosting. If there are any comments of questions dont hesitate to get in touch.

Regards

I've contacted those that I thought would be most interested and best suited for the promotion with no replies, almost instantly after their posts here.

I was hoping to get more responses (it wasn't a first-come-first-serve) but was ready to go for most of those who had already responded. Again, I received no reply to my responses.

You can understand what impression that no response to my queries to get them started gave me about the likelihood of continued and timely reviews, etc per the terms of the offer. Perhaps there was some glitch, so I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt.

EDIT: And because of that benefit of the doubt, I've PM'd all interested party and await their reply if still interested.

im interested

I have sent you a PM, SithLord. Godlesswanderer sent a reply and if you both end up on board and accepting this, that will be two of the three (out of all interested, you guys have actually posted here more than twice so that's definitely a plus! :) )

Will there be some requirements for those who get hosted at you, for example have a backlink or banner of your hosting? :)

Just the reviews/feedback per my reply earlier in the thread. I have decided that three months is a good amount of time for this (it said up to six and I'll still consider that on a case-by-case basis).

Thanks! I'll let you know if any of the three people I've sent information to back out or don't respond.

My work on the coming site (for my schoolclass) is almost done it just need some few adjustments and addons for the big trippel W

Lucky I got 1 week school break at this moment :roll: :D

Great, we are moving along over e-mail. Still waiting on a couple of others, so I'll let you all know when the positions are filled or if they open up. Thanks for the interest and keep checking back!

EDIT to add:

C-Man is set up with http://nv2b.plexihosting.com/ - wanted a subdomain and that was fine with me. So on or about 11/8/2005, please post the first feedback which is:

1. Initial setup and first week getting your site working with the hosting

Not getting responses from others, so there may be a couple of spots opening up. Please respond ASAP if I have contacted you, thanks! If not, I'll be shifting the positions to someone else this week.

Sorry I havn't been able to reply to your email, my gmail account is refusing to work. I may not be able to carry on with my hosting spot. I've recently been swamped with tons of college work and I don't think I'll be able to do anything for a while. So it's probably best to free up my spot for someone else. Sorry for the trouble.

No problem, thanks for the update and I hope everything goes well with college!

Im back! :lol:

Sorry for the delay on my answer and feedback report :oops: , I have been tied up with a major chemestry test.

That is maybe I have not worked on my site for a week or so :(. Whell what can I say so for the host has been great :!:
I have not noticed any problems with the host or the connection to it so my summary: So far all good :wink: ... exept no progress during the latest week.

Thoug I can say that I am working on another site and that I might replace the current one if the host allow me to delete one subdomain and add another one ;) that should not be a problem? How ever I will try to work on both or I will throw this one away and replace it. I will give you a real answer later!

Stay tuned for more info ;)

If the resource usage is fairly low, there's no problem adding the other subdomain. Let me know if and when you need it.

Thank you for the feedback! So glad to hear it is working out well for you.
