Well, I thought of this, and I think I need to move to a bigger host. The reason is because I need more space and I don't think 2 GB will supply any much longer. If there's a way to back up my whole site and mysql, please tell me. The host I might get might not be good, but if it is, then I'm moving there. I greatly thank all of you X10 Staff for helping me, and providing me a great host. If there's anything I can do, I'll try to do it.

(This isn't a threat, but I do need more, and I don't want to waste the space and GB for the other people. This is a plan, please do not think I moved yet. I'm still thinking everything. ) Thanks

Sorry for not suppling any resources or anything, but what exactly is on your website that takes up that much space?

Again, sorry for being off topic, but I can't really reply to your question anyway, but have you even tried using our space? Now, wouldn't it make sense to even see if it takes up that much? Yes, graphics can take up a lot of space, but you havn't even tried, have you? If so, sorry... you should have been more clear.

Sorry for the confusion. I haven't tested it all out, but I just have the feeling that it will take alot of space. I'll tell you here if I don't have any more space anymore.

If you find another host with cPanel you can request them to do a direct copy of the account. This can be done through their WHM. If they don't have cPanel it is kind of tough and most likely your new host will need to restore your database for you. cPanel is the easiest way... you can backup your database through your cPanel.
