This is from Ripway - and is the reason my siggies aren't working. Someone tell me what it means please! I'm dumb!

How bigs that file. How many boards do you use it on? What is your down load limit on Ripway?

It sounds pretty straight forward, you're exceeding the download bandwidth for your account. Everytime someone views one of your posts they are d/l your images so they can see it. If it is a big file and/or lots of peole are veiwing it than you'll exceed your limit.

Having said that it usually takes a really big file or a LOT people d/l it to do that so it does sound unusual.

Eric would probably know a lot more about it than me.

By Jove I think Mr. P has it! Shocked

I had a similar problem when I did a memory intensive Aly animation that someone linked to and played a lot. My IP provider checked to make sure I was not running a commercial site due to the amount of traffic and I almost went over the allowable limit of use for the month. Evil or Very Mad

You might want to try reworking your animated file to reduce the file size, maybe fewer frames? or smaller image size or both.
